About the Artist
Born and raised in Manhattan, MF Grimm's name has been buzzing around the NYC hiphop circuit since the early 90s. Then known The Grimm Reaper, he was one half of "The Gravediggaz". Grimm and his DJ, Roc Raida reeked havoc in the music industry. Spitting fire alongside Kool G Rap and KMD, Grimm was a seasoned battle MC, placing at the World Supremacy Battle of 1993. He was approached by several major labels and about to embark on his superstar journey when he was shot several times in an attempt at his life the following year. Miraculously, Grimm recovered from most of his injury but remains confined to a wheelchair. He went on to release several 12" singles on Bobitto's Fondle 'Em label and also collaborated with MF Doom on numerous projects, executive producing "Operation Doomsday". Grimm is currently juggling his business skills and his creativity: expanding his label and distribution company, Day By Day Entertainment to cater to Rock as well as hiphop while working on his next album.

4 out of 5 stars Grimm did the impossible.......2006-07-08

He recorded this LP in 24 hours and much like the film "25th Hour" he did this whole thing right before he went to jail. This is very evident on many of the tracks on "Iblys." Dark, moody, sharp. Grimm's tounge spits venom as he faces the next hours, days and mounths ahead of him. This LP reflects a man falling from grace and trying to find himself... a single word, redemption. MF Doom execs the project and gets behind the boards on several tracks. Not an amazing album, but a dope album none the less.

2 out of 5 stars 2.5 Stars Feels like an Ep .......2006-06-14

This album is so boring it ain't funny it has cool mello layed back beats that'll put you to sleep but grimm hardly even spits with passion his flow is too lazy and at times sounds like he's humming to the beats

You see the MF but don't even compare him to MF DOOM, DOOM is light years ahead of him. I only found about 7 decent songs which 4/7 had to do with MF DOOM rapping or producing the song "rainblood" , "foolish" "voices pt.0 & 1"

Other highlights are the dark stringy "teach the babies" using a creative concept of using a sesemee street character throwing out a letter of the alpha bet while grimm follows with a rhyme for the letter. "howl" & "break 'em off (intermission)" are about the only songs left where grimm spits with force on raw production.

Lazy album that feels like an EP you'll skip more then enough of the cuts on here.

5 stars = classic this by good god's green earth is at the bottom of the list on being classic 7 maybe 8 good songs. 2.5 stars.

download this or don't bother cop the M.I.C. album, Rodan's & Megalon's album and of course any MF DOOM.

mf grimm has never been even down wit gravediggaz. they had beef over the name. they are 2 completely different artists. mf grimm's 1st release was a solo title "SO REAPER" extremely rare( I have it), then he was on 3 jams wit KOOL G RAP, TAKE EM TO WAR demo and album versions and MONEY ON MY BRAIN. he was also on the KURIOUS album the jam BABY BUST IT. ALL the bomb. CHECK EM OUT
