Welcome to Doc's Mind. A no-holds-barred blog about what goes on in my life, and how my brain reacts to it. No subject is off limits, especially my loves for Hip-Hop, Music Review, Music Biz, Basketball, UFC, & Mythology. I don't expect everyone to agree with my opinions, so I leave it all open for discussion & argument. Also be sure to check our podcast called The Twisted Critics on spotify & all other platforms, hosted by Rapper A.M. & myself.
