It changed the way I view art because it challenged convention.
And every time I listen to it, still to this day, I can play it and it feels like the first time I was listening to it.
I was just like, It's really interesting. Like, that's what I was listening to and all of a sudden I hear this really obscure record with this guy with the mask on the cover I'm like, What the hell is this? The first time I listened to it I didn't know what to do with it. I grew up on Dipset, Cam'ron, Roc-A-Fella, Freeway, Peedi Crakk, State Property, Beans. But yeah, Madvillainy, I'd never heard hip-hop like that before. There's actually an MF Doom Easter egg in Bel-Air - R.I.P. I think people say that a lot, but that album changed my life.
