"Just remember all caps when you spell the man's name..."We lost another great one at the end of 2020. I found out on New Year's Eve that legendary rapper MF DOOM passed away at the age of 49 on Oct. 31, 20.  Not only was he great, but he was also basically the human soundtrack to all my Jack Palms podcasts.In a year of many messed up things, this one shook me at the last chance, just as we were kicking 2020 out the door. But it had one trick left.Join me as I go down a bit of podcasting memory lane to recap the podcast intros and hits I know him for best.Blessings, Daniel Dumile. Rest in Power.
