Dooom was one of his best horror-based creations plus his standing pushes him much higher up the list. There could have been any number of songs by Brotha Lynch Hung/Necro/Gravediggaz/100X/Flatlinerz etc. but it was Diary Of A Madman that was the stand-out track on Gravediggaz’ début LP which was very influential and also slightly crossed-over (it also pre-dated Def Jam’s Flatlinerz and was a much better album). Sunz Of Man and Dark Skinned Assassin (as well as Klik Ga Bow) followed on from Gravediggaz and made the sub-genre more credible especially in the East Coast, to the point where DMX could release a violent/horror-based album and go platinum. DMX’s first album may have varied themes but “Damien” and “X Is Coming” were thematically Horrorcore.
