Way Gone Wednesdays: MADDILLAINY

What happens when you take the vocals from the 2004 masterpiece Madvillainy (MF DOOM vs. Madlib) and drop them over Dilla beats? Big ups to DJ Skarface. This is hot.

Madhouse Mondays: Madlib

Madlib is the fucking man. Watch him make this beat from scratch then freak it. Dag.

Madhouse Mondays: 40

I turned 40 this weekend. That's not a number that bothers me. Most of my heros are 40. Mos Def, Slug, Madlib, Nas. All of those cats are still kickin' up dust and so am I. I was surrounded by close friends and a lot of love this weekend. I'm truly blessed. 

 

Feel Good Fridays: Aloe Blacc & Madlib

I'll take Aloe Blac almost any day of the week. But when you pair him with Madlib it's a must. Dig.

Way Gone Wednesdays: The Stepkids

I may be late to the party on this but one of my more recent discoveries is the hipster-soul of The Stepkids.  Looks like they landed a deal with Madlib's own Stones Throw Records.  Dig it.  It's way gone.
