Medicine Show No. 1: Before the Verdict
The Good Hurt – Los Angeles, CA
1/20/10
As part of the Medicine Show series, Madlib will be releasing a record per month for 2010. The twelve-CD series will be released on Madlib’s own imprint, Madlib Invazion. Before the Verdict, the first installment, features 17 hip-hop tracks with previously unreleased guest appearances by MED and J Dilla, dating back to their first collaborations. The “OJ Simpson remixes” are also on the album, a prelude to Guilty Simpson and Madlib’s forthcoming collaboration OJ Simpson. An eight-page booklet is also packaged along with the CD.
You can purchase the album on CD or MP3 here, but I’d wait until the release party, where printing crew Hit+Run will hand-screen individual vinyl covers on the spot. The limited edition album covers include artwork and illustrations by Jeff Jank (Stones Throw) and Gustavo Eandi (Argentina).
