The 'This Is MF DOOM' meme gained massive traction on platforms like TikTok and Instagram as an ironic way to pay homage to the late, legendary underground rapper MF DOOM. The meme typically pairs a low-quality or abstract image—often an object that vaguely resembles the artist's iconic gladiator-style mask—with his signature jazzy production. It plays on the intense reverence fans have for DOOM’s persona, turning the 'search' for the Villain into a humorous game of finding his likeness in mundane objects. It is frequently used in 'shitposting' circles to highlight the surrealism of internet hip-hop culture and the artist's enduring legacy.
