Mr. Hood (1991) is the first album by KMD, Daniel Dumile's first group. It was a precursor to Black Bastards (1994). The album featured samples from language-learning tapes, cut together to create the character of Mr. Hood. It was rereleased by Traffic Entertainment Group in 2004 after being unavailable for several years and was listed at number 98 in Pitchfork Media's Top 100 Albums of the 1990s.
Black Bastards (or Bl_ck B_st_rds) is an album by KMD, released in 2001 through Sub Verse Records. Initially, the album was scheduled for release in 1994, but Elektra Records canceled the album, reportedly due to the controversial cover art, which shows a Sambo figure being lynched, and its Black nationalist, Five-Percenter lyrics.[1] However, the album displayed no obvious Five-Percenter rhetoric, yet the project was racially candid, as demonstrated by the album title, its cover art, and the sample collage intro. Zev Love X's brother DJ Subroc was killed when he was struck by a car shortly before the album was completed. Rare and demo tracks recorded during the making of this album were released on a vinyl-only EP titled Black Bastards Ruffs + Rares in 1998. The album was re-released in 2008 by MF Doom's own Metal Face Records.
