DOOM postscript: ‘The character that I hired, he got paid for it’
Tuesday, April 21st, 2009
I’m a little late on this, but it looks like DOOM has finally, unequivocally, admitted that other people have performed for him at his shows.
HipHopDX: So just to get it out of the way, can you address the recent scandal where you were allegedly sending an impostor to perform in your mask at DOOM concerts?
DOOM: [Laughs] Alright. Here’s how I look at it, because the wording in there is kinda funny. “Impostor.” Impostor would imply that the character. I liken it to this: I’m a director as well as a writer. I choose different characters, I choose their direction and where I want to put them. So who I choose to put as the character is up to me. The character that I hired, he got paid for it. There’s no impostor.
