MF Doom - Metal Fingers Presents: Special Herbs Vol. 3 & 4

One of the most expansive instrumental hip-hop series ever assembled, MF DOOM’s Special Herbs brings together a massive trove of beats—ranging from series exclusives to subtly reworked tracks originally crafted for himself and others. Released under his Metal Fingers alias, Special Herbs distills DOOM’s influential, rule-defying sound into pure form—constantly reshaping the boundaries of hip-hop in favor of The Super-Villain.

For Metal Fingers, the world is a limitless source of inspiration. ’70s soul and funk, ’80s R&B, golden-age rap, and even snippets from children’s records and vintage TV all find their way into the mix. Each track is a carefully measured ingredient in DOOM’s off-kilter recipe book—equal parts head-nod and deep dig.
