“DOOM was one of the people who brought Hip-Hop back to its essence," Fernando told Hypebeast. "In the golden age of Hip-Hop, it was about creativity, originality and innovation. DOOM hit all three of those things in spades and in all of his work.” A Booklist review describes Chronicles of DOOM as "A comprehensive look at DOOM's life and career, meticulously researched through interviews with the rapper’s many collaborators and those closest to the man behind the mask."
