Rap songs featuring Master Shake?! The greatest shock is actually how cool it turns out to be! 
2008-08-05
It might sound as a true bug-stunt! DJ Dangermouse, priorly known for a illegal Beatles/Jay-Z mix and later as the better half of Gnarls Barkley, hooked up with the mysterious MC known as Doom, and together they created a concept-album with tracks made of samples from cartoon shows like AQUA TEEN HUNGER FORCE! But the product is actually a fun, but also inspiring and smart blend of quite original beats and lyric. I have listened to this hundred of times and never grown tired of it. Both parts has moved on to other projects since, so I kinda doubt we will hear more of this. But this one and only album is a true keeper!
doom does it 2007-12-28
Not only are his lyrics funny, interesting and INTELLIGENT, he also has a sexy voice that hypnotizes me while I listen and laugh. Gotta love adult swim for inspiring this one. I'd buy all his albums if he keeps the same style.
A MUST HAVE ... 2007-09-13
This is quite possibly the best Hip-Hop album of 2005! Sadly, it was overlooked, under-rated and slept on. And just for the record, it's albums like this that prove Nas wrong, Hip-Hop is NOT dead! It has simply gone underground! Know it ... and oh yeah, eat your vegetables.
it's alright

Danger Doom is alright... nothing too exciting... I thought it would be more up beat but it turned out being a lot more "in your face"... but I'm also not that much into hip-hop.
It's A Pretty Intense Collaberation... 2007-08-12
So, I bought this after hearing a few tracks, and being a major fan of Danger Mouse, I thought it would be intense, and i wasn't letdown at all.
alot of the tracks are so random and obscure, but still sound amazing.
like Benzie Box, it has a bassy tone, and ghost sounds, something I haven't really ever heard.
And the constant visiting of the ATHF members is also very fun.

Should've been spectacular, got good instead

Two of this generation's most respected hip-hop artists, Danger Mouse and MF Doom have come together for this album, inspired by Adult Swim, Cartoon Network's popular late-night animation network. Doom, with his near obsession with masked identities and superhero personas, and Mouse, with his murky, ethereal soundscapes that cloud men's minds like Mandrake, are the perfect partners for the project, and each has inspired the other to the finest work of their careers. "The Mouse & The Mask" contains character voices and skits from Adult Swim's most popular original shows, including "Aqua Teen Hunger Force", "Sealab 2021", and "Harvey Birdman, Attorney At Law", along with guest appearances by Cee-Lo, Talib Kweli, and Ghostface Killah.
[adult swim]'s Commercialization (Rating: 8 out of 10- -4 stars) 2006-12-04
[adult swim] was being viewed by many people who enjoyed humorous cartoons on the Cartoon Network Channel. I might have been watching that channel since the age of 5 (it used to come on locally here in Atlanta up until about '94). [adult swim] has been responsible for bringing us humous PG 13 cartoons such as "Aqua Teen Hunger Force", "Sealab 2120", and more. I believe they felt the need to cash in on the music industry by allowing MF Doom and Danger Mouse to drop an album under the name Danger Doom. And truthfully, I believed that people bought this album, just becasue of the [adult swim] logo on it.
The Danger Doom album "The Mouse And The Mask" was good to listen to. Most of MF Doom's rhymes are good to listen to (a better move over that "Madvillany" album if you ask me). His flow was consistant throughout this album. Danger Doom's production is good too. This was the first time I hear his production, and it was very impressive.
What I like most about this album is the cameos by the cartoon characters themselves. Master Shake appears on a few tracks leaving voice mail messages cussing out Danger Mouse for not letting him rhyme. Meatwad and Brak spits a few rhymes on this album. There are more cartoon cameos throughout this album too.
Guest appearances are few. Ghostface Killah appears on "The Mask" which is good. Cee-Lo sings the hook to "Benzi Box". And my favorite track is "Old School" with Talib Kweli, is perfect.
The problem I have with this album is the length. The album clocks in at about 37 minutes, making it seem kind of short. Also the songs are short in length too, averaging about 2 and a half minutes, not hearing enough Doom.
Other than that, this album is recommended to fans of [adult swim] who haven't purchased this album, or fans of both MF Doom and Danger Mouse. There are no filler tracks here. Just head nodding music. Enjoy.

Hip-Hop at its best 2006-11-26
This is a OK album considering its one of the first Danger Mouse+M.F. Doom callabo's(other's were November has Come-Gorillaz)If you ask me some of the tracks will leave you wanting more from the duo and some of the beats annoy you(Basket case,benzie box) other than that the samples are ill danger's beats are one of the sickest,and doom's rhymes are ill(always have bee)if you're gonna cop it its worth your monbey!
Fantastic Beats 2006-11-04
I was a little skeptical when I purchased this album, not being all that fond of the only track I had heard MF Doom rap on, "November Has Come" by Gorillaz, but I gave it a chance.
Danger Mouse really shines on this album, making every track completely fresh and funky. MF Doom even grew on me, though, among my favorites would have to be Old School, with Talib Kweli, and Benzi Box, with Cee-Lo. However, the whole album is spectacular really. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is the bleeping of profanity. I feel that the content on the album is more adult oriented, as is the subject matter from which it took its inspiration, and as such, I feel that the bleeping was unnecessary.
Great album, though, Doom, Danger, and all the others really took me by surprise, and it ended up that this album was far better than expected.
A little disappointed 2006-09-28
This is my first album from either artist and I have to say, that I was expecting a little more. Adult Swim really, really pushed this album so I bought it. MF Doom is very good at what he does. His rhymes are off the hook and Danger Mouse kicks butt with making beats. The clips from the Adult Swim crew are pretty funny. But, with the exception of a handful of songs, the album lacks that "I wanna listen to it over and over again" feel. I like the album, but maybe I was expecting too much from it.
