In total, Special Herbs: The Box Set is sure to delight MF Doom fans - old and new alike - and it's a perfect series primer for anyone curious about these so-called "special herbs" that Doom has grown in his secret studio lair.

This bonus disc is unmixed, and the tracks play out to full length, which generally is in the four-minute range. Plus, there's a bonus disc here: a third disc comprised of "10 secret herbs & spices from the KMD kitchen" that boasts a few really amazing productions. Granted, the mixing is rough, but so are the productions, so once you get a few tracks in, you barely notice the sometimes abrupt transitions. So mixing together two discs' worth of these productions results in a heady listening experience. No, Doom tends to color outside the lines, and often with odd colors that are of questionable source. That's fine, though, because Doom is just as whimsical a producer as he is a rapper, rarely if ever parading the sort of clichés and motifs that make most commercial rap a color-by-numbers exercise. If you're not familiar with the Special Herbs series, know that these are instrumental productions, none of which feature Doom's whimsical raps.
Rather, it's a two-disc mix CD that includes roughly two-minute snippets of 72 different MF Doom productions. Yes, it does draw from all ten volumes of the Special Herbs series, but it's not a ten-disc set or anything like that. Special Herbs: The Box Set isn't really a box set, at least not in the proper sense.
