Masta Ace – MA_DOOM: Son Of Yvonne (Vinyl)
"MA_DOOM: Son of Yvonne" is simultaneously a dedication to Ace's mother, who died in 2005, and a retrospective of her son's journey as an artist, from earliest days when he would mess up her prized record collection, to earning his living far away from his Brooklyn birthplace.
The soundtrack to it he found in MF DOOM's popular beat catalogue, melodic, homespun tracks that ostensibly make Ace think of times past and inspire songwriting.
Ace's lyricism is seemingly simple, short sentences, basic double rhymes, factual descriptions and characterizations. But dig deeper and you find that he puts a little bit more thought into his writing than the majority of his ilk.

Info columns
PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
SHIPPING
Flying Nun offers free shipping in Aotearoa New Zealand on orders over $80. We have record stores in both Auckland and Wellington and will ship your record from whichever store is nearest. We aim to pack send your order next business day. Pick ups are also available from both stores.
