Dumile’s eccentric wordplay makes him a favorite of underground hip-hop fans. He is heavily influenced by American comic books (especially the Fantastic Four and their battles with Dr. Doom). Japanese science fiction is also an influence; the concept for King Geedorah (which is derived from Ghidorah) and the Monsta Island Czars comes from the Godzilla movie series. He is also renowned for bringing comedy back into the sometimes overly serious world of rap lyrics and a unique, sample-heavy production style.
His work with with Madvillain has been covered by the New Yorker, as has his entire career.
Early Years with KMD
Dumile, the son of a Trinidadian mother and Zimbabwean father, was born in Southeast London, Great Britain, in the London Borough of Bromley on January 9, 1971. The family then moved to New York and lived in Long Beach where he was raised.
