Introducing... MF DOOM: Long Island to Leeds

A tribute to the enduring legacy of "your favourite rapper's favourite rapper", MF DOOM: Long Island To Leeds tells the tale of the surprising circumstances that led to one of the rap world's most idiosyncratic figures living out his final years in Yorkshire, England.

AFRODEUTSCHE and Adam Batty tell the story of how a New York-based icon of hip hop found himself living in relative obscurity in the north of England, with the help of guest appearances from well-known fans and celebrated contemporaries such as Romesh Ranganathan and MC Paul Barman. MF DOOM features a specially composed soundtrack by Matt Helders of Arctic Monkeys.

Presented by AFRODEUTSCHE and Adam Batty Writer and Producer: Adam Batty Senior Producer: Jarek Zaba Executive Producers: Ellie Clifford and Dino Sofos Original Score: Matt Helders Sound Designer and additional music: Jack Suddaby Assistant Commissioner: Prabhjit Bains Commissioning Editor: Khaliq Meer

MF DOOM: Long Island to Leeds is a Persephonica production with BBC Sounds Audio Lab.
