According to a report by LeedsLive on Tuesday, June 4, MF DOOM's wife raised concerns about her husband's final days during an inquest held in Leeds, U.K., where the renowned rapper lived before his passing. Jasmine Dumile questioned the quality of care provided by the medical staff at St James's University Hospital, expressing doubts about whether they had adequately attended to her husband's needs. Additionally, the official cause of DOOM's death was disclosed during the hearing, revealing that he suffered from angioedema, a rare reaction to prescribed ACE inhibitors, which resulted in severe swelling of his tongue, throat, and lips.

During the inquest, Jasmine Dumile revealed that MF DOOM, prior to his passing, appeared to be in good health but was dealing with various health issues, including kidney disease. Following the administration of two doses of a new blood pressure medication, he sought medical attention at an emergency room due to breathing difficulties.

Jasmine further described the hospital room where he was admitted as inadequate, consisting of only a bed and an old metal desk. “I don’t want to say it was an old storage room,” she said to the inquest, but “it wasn’t set up.” Medical professionals who testified in the courtroom stated that the room MF DOOM was assigned to was one of several connected to the emergency department. His passing occurred during the second wave of COVID-19 fatalities in the United Kingdom, but it remains uncertain whether the shortage of beds had any impact on his treatment.

Following MF DOOM's death, the hospital trust conducted a thorough investigation. As a result of the investigation, the trust recommended updates to the hospital's protocols for managing patients with angioedema, the condition that contributed to DOOM's passing. The inquest into his death is currently ongoing.

In a statement following his passing, Dumille said “Thank you for showing how not to be afraid to love and be the best person I could ever be. My world will never be the same without you,” his wife stated. “Words will never express what you and Malachi mean to me, I love both and adore you always. May THE ALL continue to bless you, our family and the planet.”
