"How come Madlib doesn't produce more whole album for rappers?"

I think he has a knack for this. Instead spending so much time on these esoteric releases, I'd like him to do more collaborations like those above. Maybe a Black Thought and Madlib collab album?

On the last mini-tour Madlib did he play brand new Bey mostly over the beats from the African Volume of the medicine show series (which makes perfect sense).
Also there's an album with Madlib, Blu & MED dropping in the fall.

>Also there's an album with Madlib, Blu & MED dropping in the >fall. oh word? I was just wondering if Madlib ever forgave Blu over pulling that stunt. That's great news.
don't sleep on In Search of Stoney Jackson though! even if you're not a fan of Strong Arm Steady, that album is like the new Fantastic Vol 2 to me...definitely Madlib's best collab album in my opinion.

in that he just used some Madlib beats that weren't necessarily made for him... but unlike with Blu, Madlib had surely given his blessing before the release

Might you have the name of the project?
Come to grips with the fact that most OKP's are of the Nut Hugger lineage, so, if you' re not part of the little cliques that exist 'round here, your posts will probably tank like Souljaboy's album sales.

rappers don't like rapping over challenging patters and rhythms, for the most part.

27. "always thought his style was too eccentric for most rappers" In response to Reply # 0
but Gibbs proved that theory wrong. I think mainstream cats probably aren't that in to him, and underground dudes might not have the budget or opportunity.

He seems like a recluse. How would you even get a beat tape of his? He sure as hell isn't throwing them up on instagram. You kinda have to go out of your way to get his beats, and the barrier to entry to with him is probably greater than a lot of other people.
