bought Vaudeville yesterday and think this is the better one... what do you think...?

Mr Clean of Vaudville Villain:


R.A.P. G.A.M.E. of Venomous Villain:

[Calkutta]

Venomous for Fall Back Titty Fat and Rap Game, but its got to be Vaudeville for Lickupon, Raedawn,..... sheeeeeeet almost the whole thing.

[P.R.C.]

is this a serious question?

[hot_cocoa]

vaudeville villain is some of dooms best rhymes G.M.C. was nuts

[warrensid]

VV2 is eh with a couple standout tracks but compared to Saliva, Lickupon, G.M.C., and Popsnot??!! no contest. wayy too many classic doom songs on the first album.

my thoughts exactly.

i know a lot of people like Vaudville Villain, but to me, this is doom's weakest project, one he seems to have done totally on a "rap for hire" vibe. And the second VV album was clearly a throwaway. what was it, a total of 9minutes of Doom?

Does anyone remember the version called VV 2.5? It's where all the filler was removed from the album. I think it totaled 13 minutes, but it was pretty good.

PS - i voted for Venomous just for fun : )

Woah, Hell no.

Seriously. Tight lyrics. Interesting selection of producers.

An original and dope album

"interesting" producers indeed. no arguments about doom & lyrics, but the production on VV is amateur. Conceptually and musically, King Geedorah (Doom's own concept and production) stomps all over VV even though Doom only raps on 2 or 3 tracks on that album.

[scabs]

Venomous was good, but Vaudeville was new, fresh, special. Let Me Watch!

[jeebus_unit]

The only track I can remember on VV2 is "Ode To Road Rage", that's a tight track.

What?

Raedawn?
Let Me Watch?
G.M.C?

Those are all so dope beat wise.

vaudville villain made it back into my rotation recently and i've been bumping it a lot... doom's lyrics are crazy and i never really noticed.

remember me god? clean tims with emery board
he only came to save the game like a memory card

[Gonzo Montaña]

@Chevy Chase Jr:
King Geedorah was dope, no doubt. but to say "Viktor Vaughn was his weakest project" is straight b.s.

Lol , WHen i first heard venomous villian is was alll like what the fuck is this, there was barely any doom. Vaudiville by far .

[grizz grizzlebee]

yeah becuase Dangerdoom is the weakest Doom record...

[Chevy Chase Jr.]

it's weird, people on message boards often love vik vaughn. but when i talk to real humans, a lot of people bring up the same thing - vv being weak on the production tip.

@grizz, i wasnt a big fan of dangerdoom either, but i remember crosshairs being a really good track. havent heard that album since 05

I don't know It took me a while to get over the adult swim samples but the beats and rhymes are sick, Danger Doom is the shit. the Occult hymn is the illest

[CertafiedBluntHead]

daamn vaudevllle villain is waaaay sicker than the second, and waaay sick in general, doom tears that shit up!!!! the whole vik character and how he is presented on that album is almost iller than all other doom stuff, just cause he's soo sharp and witty and on point, he raps faster and isn't as loose, which i'm not sayin the other shit is wack cause of that, far from it, but vaudeville is just crazy from doom's lyrical content alone, and the beats are all fresh too, the only reason people might not like the beats is cause it sounds a little electronic so they check the roster and see that its not doom himself and isn't like operation doomsday or mm food so they just pass it right off, but that shit grew on me like crazy from when i first heard it, one of the illest hip hop conceptual albums

[hot_cocoa]

29 to 3

[penrith]

bit of a ridiculous poll. first VV album is decent, the second one was pretty rubbish - the only doom cd i've ever been really disappointed with (to the extent of not keeping it). not like he doesn't prepare you for it: "i did it for the advance, the back end sucks". first one is well put together as an album, has a definite flow and cohesion. second one is a hodge-podge of producers and guest spots without a decent theme.

Track is nuts! Makes you wanna live it...the way Scarface makes you wanna do a mountain of coke.

[somatic/soma79]

vaudeville villain for sure.... i love that first track...

[rokwell]

I never go back to VV2...havent. But might just to see if I like it now after 6 years or so.

[Mr Teeth]

I've been rinsing out this album a lot lately.

Is there a clear explanation of the album's concept? What do you guys think it is? I know he's a time travelling villain or something, but is there more to this?

I'm going to check out VV2 to see if it's really as bad as everyone says it is.
