      It really is fucking tragic. He played the hip hop industry perfectly as a villain by releasing several legendary albums in a row, and then when he felt comfortable enough he disappeared to live his life. I was happy knowing DOOM could just chill in his lair and produce a track or write a verse or two every couple years and live a fulfilling life, but then the news of his son came out and now this . . . Why do the super villains always gotta have tragic stories.

    According to his wife, he died on Oct. 31, 2020. A cause of death was not revealed.

    That's very doom-like to keep it out of the press for over two months softens the blow of hearing this a bit

      I was taken a back at first, but now that I think about it I wish this happened more often. I'm glad the family got the time to deal with this privately before it became a hulapalooza.
