Several well-known artists took to social media to mourn his death. “The greatest husband, father, teacher, student, business partner, lover and friend I could ever ask for,” the note read “Thank you for all the things you have shown, taught and given to me, our children and our family.” She began the note addressing the rapper, whose real name was Daniel Dumile, by his last name. His wife, Jasmine, broke the news in the caption of a photo on his verified Instagram account. No cause of death was given and CNN has reached out to his record label and reps to ask about the delay in announcing his death. It's like he speaks in color." On if MF DOOM will ever put down the mask: "The character himself, DOOM, will always have the mask.MF Doom, a masked rapper who was much respected in the industry, died in October, his wife and record label shared on social media Thursday. Like Bukowski, he's one of those dudes that just has a natural knack for this. His stories are just so damn interesting. He makes things relatable by being vivid and honest and real. He just says DOOM when referring to himself." On Working with Ghostface Killah: "Ghost comes with some shit you don't expect. After Doomsday and MM…Food, I don't think DOOM would call himself MF DOOM anymore. Then everyone's asking me why I changed my name. I didn't think it'd be a big deal or nothing. This is where you get to the center of this character, so I decided to drop the MF for this album only. I came out to America when hip-hop was just poppin' off so I got involved right away." On releasing Born Like This as DOOM and not MF DOOM: "This record is DOOM's most personal record. Kurtis Blow is probably the first major emcee I can remember.

I trusted him, even though it was kinda expensive. So what it was is that a friend of mine told me he saw this mask that would be perfect for the DOOM character.

"You know the movie Gladiator? Well around that time, they started selling these 'gladiator masks' that were replicas from the movie. He also talked about where he got his mask from while revealing he has a few different masks that are different from each other. Throwing on the mask was just a good way to switch it up." I though it'd be an easy way for people to see and differentiate between characters, sorta like when an actor gains weight for a role. I decided the mask would just add to the mystique of the character as well as make DOOM stand out. The DOOM thing is to be able to come at things with a different point of view. Zev Love X was a character too, most people think that's me but he wasn't. In terms of his mask and why he wears one, the Mm.Food artist said: "It's really just another character. The conversation finds DOOM talking about his mask and where he got it from, his introduction to hip-hop music, working with Ghostface Killah and more.
