Although he was born in England, Daniel grew up in Long Island, New York.
Despite living there from a young age, he still doesn’t have American citizenship.
In the early days’ Daniel was known as Zev Love X (he has had many names over the years), formed a group with his younger brother, DJ Subroc and Rodan.
Together, they formed KMD.
When Rodan left the group, Zev replaced him with an MC called ‘onyx the birthstone kid’.
After a little while, they were signed by Elektra records.
They played a role in 3rd bass’s song ‘gas face’, which featured on the Cactus album.

This over time expanded his name in the underground hip-hop world.
It was also at this time, in the last 90s, where his name would change to MF doom and he would wear a mask, inspired by the comic book villain doctor doom.
This association was further amplified with his next album cover, featuring an illustration of Dr Doom.
The album was entitled Operation: Doomsday.
It’s fair to say this has probably been his most successful album to date.
Although he was experiencing success MF would go on to appeal more to the mainstream a few years down the line with his album ‘The mouse and the mask’.
It was released on the 11th of October 2005 in collaboration with DJ danger mouse under the group name ‘Danger Doom’.
It would reach number 41 on the billboard.
Doom would also appear in Gorrilaz 2005 album ‘demon days’ on the track ‘November has come’.
