Madlib and other interesting hip-hop... but mostly Madlib

Anyway, this is a song from Madlib's Medicine Man series. I haven't paid any attention to these releases, because a lot of his side projects are kind of uninspired, but I have to say, this shit is pretty damn good.

I don't love Madlib because of Madvillain. I love Madvillain, and Doom, but I love Madlib for the Beat Konducta 1&2 album, which contains some of my favorite instrumental hip-hop. He's got skills.

So check out new song. Very interesting, "out there" production, which is exactly what I look for in hip-hop.

But how do you feel about hip=hop in general? Any big artists on the board? I've been here only a short while, but I've seen no hip-hop threads.

Anyway, here's what's been spinning lately:

-Madlib- Beat Konducta 5/6
-Odd Future (and all its components, save frank ocean, who I haven't really dug yet)
-Early DelTFH
-Ghostface Killah
-Kanye and Jay-Z leak of Watch the Throne

Not much new. Maybe some recommendations?

So the topic is Madlib and hip-hop. Any takers?

My two personal hip-hop favorites, without a doubt.

yeah, i'm not sure three 6 counts as hip hop, that would definately fall in the rap category. but madlib is definately in the hip hop section. shades of blue was how i got into him. that and his set at ATP in ucla. damn good shit, (pretty much) everything he touches turns to gold

no.

odd future is a bunch of spoiled brats who've exhausted their gimmick after one album with a decent mc and decent(but repetitive) beats

shouts out to the codeine fiend dream team and the cough syrup flow fuck everyone else

this is classic sonicyouth.com rap taste, you'll fit in fine, listen to gucci mane too now

Don't forget Lil B

you have to be kidding me....

yes WTT is great, if you like it check Kanye's previous album MBDTF, it's even better

how do i feel about hip hop? it's my fav genre

Section.80 by Kendrick Lamar is the best hip hop album of the year

Common - Be has some of the most beautiful production i've ever heard, so soulful
Below the Heavens by Blu & Exile is an underrated 00's classic
Curren$y's Pilot Talk 1 & 2 are chill as fuck
GRODT, The Documentary & the 1st 2 Clipse albums bang

OF truly got old fast.. the Yonkers vid, Sandwitches performance at Jimmy Fallon, Frank & Earl are great tho
