Danger Doom was a
Background
Danger Mouse and MF Doom had previously collaborated on "Social Distortion" from Prince Po's The Slickness, Danger Mouse's remix of Zero 7's "Somersault", and the track "November Has Come" from Gorillaz' second studio album, Demon Days.
MF Doom had stated that he hoped there would be a second Danger Doom album in which he would "rap from the perspective of the cartoons and in their voices, rather than simply create stories around them".[3] Danger Mouse was also slated to reunite with MF Doom in 2008,[4] though ultimately no reunion projects occurred before MF Doom's death in 2020.
Much of Danger Doom's music has been filled with material from and endorsed by Adult Swim, a block of animated television shows airing on cable's Cartoon Network.
Danger Doom was awarded Best Hip-Hop album of the year by PLUG Independent Music Awards for their album, The Mouse and the Mask.
In 2017 Doom's Metalface Records reissued The Mouse and the Mask with the previously unreleased track, Mad Nice, featuring Black Thought of The Roots.
Doom would later posthumously appear on Danger Mouse's track "Belize" off his 2022 album Cheat Codes.
