A tribute to the enduring legacy of "your favourite rapper's favourite rapper", MF DOOM: Long Island To Leeds tells the tale of the surprising circumstances that led to one of the rap world's most idiosyncratic figures living out his final years in Yorkshire, England.

AFRODEUTSCHE and Adam Batty tell the story of how a New York-based icon of hip hop found himself living in relative obscurity in the north of England, with the help of guest appearances from well-known fans and celebrated contemporaries such as Romesh Ranganathan and MC Paul Barman. MF DOOM features a specially composed soundtrack by Matt Helders of Arctic Monkeys.

Following a successful world tour MF DOOM finds himself barred from re-entry into the country that he has called home for the past four decades and is forced into exile. AFRODEUTSCHE and Adam Batty look at the extraordinary circumstances that led to MF DOOM being barred from the country that he called home for almost forty years, and seek to answer the question of how one of New York’s greatest rap talents found himself at odds with the US immigration system?

Speculation about his whereabouts runs wild online, with rumours and sightings of the rapper in Paris, the Caribbean and even further afield, before several curious encounters place the Supervillain in London…

Guests: Thomas Crosbie and Alex De Mora.
