Madlib is known for doing off-cuff ish, and now he’s taking his own cake… The producer/emcee with a handful of names is preparing to drop two more albums than he has fingers as part of the Madlib Medicine Show. From Stones Throw:
Madlib is launching the Madlib Medicine Show, a once-a-month, twelve-CD, six-LP series. The Madlib Medicine Show will be a combination of Madlib’s new hip-hop productions, remixes, beat tapes, and jazz, as well as mixtapes of funk, soul, Brazilian, psych, jazz and other undefined forms of music from the Beat Konducta’s 4-ton* stack of vinyl.
Madlib Medicine Show No. 1 is Before The Verdict featuring Guilty Simpson, a 17-track album mixing remixes and new material, something of a prelude to Madlib & Guilty Simpson’s forthcoming OJ Simpson album.
As a pre-cursor to the release, we have “The Paper” off Before The Verdict. You can listen and download it below.
