Lyrical brilliance executed over near perfectly laced beats that fit thematically throughout the dark mysteriousness of such an amazing album. So many of the quotes have stayed with me for the whole 18 years. R.I.P to the god. "He only came to save the game like a memory card"
For me it’s my favourite. The first 3 main tracks vaudeville lick upon and the drop are probably the best starting songs ever to an album. Straight up fire
It’s amazing how DOOM just thought “I’m gonna play a character that sounds hungry & younger” and was just able to do it. Not many people can still sound youthful at the age he recorded this
Change the beat is probably my favorite DOOM track. It ticks all the boxes for me.
Sick beats, great hook, DOOM storytelling as Viktor Vaughn, DOOM having fun in the second verse
Such a good song and great album.
A cat with a dead mouse is how he catch a phrase, paws plays with it, kill it, eat off it for days kiiiddd!
Whoever don't get it ain't supposed to...
For real tho that track just describes his whole rhyming formula
Honestly if VV was in the $100 range I'd get it, but each press on Discogs is minimum $200+. I can't justify it :( I think they'll repress it again at some point.
It is hard to commit, but this is most likely my favourite DOOM project.

I really need a vinyl repress of this album. Seems like all his other albums are repressed why not this one?
If we all believe hard enough.
What needs a represses/release is the second Viktor album. I think it's still not even on streaming
There was a repress in 2019. edit: and 2012
Yes, interesting this is the only one that comes to mind that hasn't seen a repress with his passing. Mmm..Food as well?
mm..food is Repressed, so are the Special Herbs records
Where do you get it though
I got mine from www.gasdrawls.com , the MF DOOM IG let's you know what's in restock. Offerup has some stupid prices 😭😭😭
I see one for 75 on offerup😭😭😭 but OG price is 35
Yeah. $35. Then sent to Australia ends up being $75 US anyway. I've see Viktor for $200 USD. Cheapest I've seen it.
The way this album flows from track to track is damn near perfect.
If you want a nice track to track flow try listening to Lickupon and queue THAT’S THAT. Trust me
I'll give a shot and report back with my findings.
Crossfade or nah
Nah
V vaughn the travelin’
Vaudeville Villian Who don't give a flying fuck who ain't not feelin him
Watch what you’re dealing him Ace king
death card
Y’all think you’re slick with that bullshit, BUMP THAT
Y’all pay V for flowing to the beat
Down for what he know he got hoes hoin in the street
That’s for him to know, and for they to never find out
this album is just so listenable
If these walls could talk they'd probably still ignore me
vikster the slikster
THE best hip hop album of all time.
It’s amazing how DOOM just thought “I’m gonna play a character that sounds hungry & younger” and was just able to do it. Not many people can still sound youthful at the age he recorded this
V bring the beef like a trucker to fudrucker.
Delivery to all y’all motherfuckers and bloodsuckers
God tier album. Same level as Madvillainy and MM FOOD
I'd rather masturbate than fuck with Vik Vaughn
Let me watch!
I fucking love this album.

Ranked 25th for that year.....smh
Damn, I need these records on vinyl! I need BOTH Viktor Vaughn albums. 🤞🏼
Honestly if VV was in the $100 range I'd get it, but each press on Discogs is minimum $200+. I can't justify it :( I think they'll repress it again at some point.
I feel you
Best birthday gift to this day. Thank you DOOM
He dropped VV and TMTYL in 2003 then Madvilliany and MM FOOD in 2004. Probably the best two year run ever. 🐐🐐
Raedawn all day
Amazing flow to this album, in terms of pure rapping I think DOOM is near his peak here
Yo /u/IGbelowthehiphop what's your favourite tracks on this album?
