DOOM talks about the message of the mask

Yea the whole mask thing really ight
Things in my point of view starting going to
How things looked like
Opposed what things sound like
Ya know what i mean
Before you didn't know what
Emcees looked like
When you see em at party rocking you know so
Most times you em rock at a show
Before you even knew know what I'm saying
Before videos pre videos you know so
You were going off the sound of the record
Straight skills
See once it started getting more publicized
And you know once hip hop started getting
Money making thing
Then you start getting these corporate ideas
Where you want to put what it looks like
To sell what to sounds what it looks like
We dealing with music so what I did
I came with the angle of
It don't matter what I look like
It don't matter what the artist look like
It's more bout what the artist sound like
Mask really represents the whole rebel
On trying sell a whole human being
More of a sound
At the same time it's something different
You know what I'm saying
It fit's with the theme
Of the theme of the rebel of a villain
Where to him he doesn't care bout the fame
None of that shit
That shit has no consequence
You know what i mean
It's more on the message
On what's being said
So it helps people focus more
On what's being said
It's still entertaining it's still
Like the theater
It has the appeal of you know
Something it can be considered entertaining
That message is still there
That villain represents anybody
Anybody can where the mask
Can be the villain male or female any race
So call race
It's about where you coming from
From your heart what's the message
What you got to say you know what i mean
That's why i mainly chose to bring the mask
Into the fold
