Take Me to Your Leader is the second studio album by British-American MC and producer MF Doom, released under the alias King Geedorah on Big Dada - a hip-hop imprint of Ninja Tune.
Take Me to Your Leader is a hip-hop classic. It is the perfect musical achievement between Nas' Illmatic and Dr. Octagon's Dr. Octagonacologyst.
MF Doom, perhaps the most legendary figure in underground hip hop, recorded a single album for Big Dada in 2003 as King Geedorah, a giant three-headed lizard from outer space. One of the few records of his career to be entirely self-produced, written, recorded, arranged, mixed and mastered (though with a variety of vocal guests including Kurious and Scienz Of Life), it occupies a unique place in his catalogue.
Alright, this is how it is. You don't know it yet, but this is your favorite album of the ... What MF Doom can do is on par with anyone you can name off the top of your clever, underground noggin', and he most likely does it better. Take Me to Your Leader will excite you in a way most hip-hop projects just aren't able: It's not straining for credibility nor putting effort into being revelatory; it just is. Everyone involved got their kicks making this record, and the enthusiasm drips off the vinyl.
