MF DOOM / MF Grimm - Special Herbs & Spices Volume 1
Special Herbs + Spices Vol. 1 is the third collaboration album released between American rappers MF DOOM and MF Grimm, released in 2004 on Grimm's own Day By Day Entertainment label. Unlike their previous works, this CD is solely focused on MF Grimm's rhyming over MF DOOM's production.
The first ingredient of each song title is a reference to the corresponding track from DOOM's Special Herbs series of instrumental albums.

More:
Trivia: Due to their falling out in early 2006, this is most likely the last collaboration between both artists.
Trivia: The song "My Love" was scheduled to be included on Grimm's triple CD album, American Hunger. However, due to the falling out between DOOM and Grimm, the lyrics and beat were drastically altered and the name of the track was tweaked to "Still My Love".
