Synopsis

Product Description
Madlib follows 420 Chalice All Stars: All Jamaican Sounds with the fifth installment in his Madlib Medicine Show, History of the Loop Digga: 1990-2000. Back in the 90s, beat tapes, as a Hip Hop producer s demo-reel is now quaintly referred to, were literally that: cassette tapes of beats that a producer made either for himself, his friends, or for potential collaborators. As you can imagine, Madlib made a bunch of em in the days between his early productions for the Alkaholiks (circa 92) and the release of his Quasimoto album (2000) after which he took a couple of years off of the beats to focus on making jazz music with his fictional five piece, Yesterdays New Quintet. This collection of beats showcases the way that Madlib s early Hip Hop demos were filtered out to his friends and associates and provides an opportunity for a unique view into Madlib s working process: these beats, often freestyled on whatever machine he had at the ready, were picked up by rappers over a period of many years. Trainspotters will find it interesting that beats later destined for the likes of Wildchild and Percee P were made some years before those albums saw release. This album is punctuated with a series of early solo-raps by Madlib and his Quasimoto alter ego and features the cadre known collectively as CDP those rappers who worked side by side with Madlib during the days of his Oxnard-based Crate Diggas Palace studios.

"This cd is dope.. Madlib lays down incredible beats and has some nice C.D.P. songs (Crate Diggas Palace) to close it out.. A must buy for any true underground hip hop head.."

"The CDP cuts on this alone make this a must have especially for fans of quas, lootpack and madlib. When I first heard the CDP cuts I had to get this. I wish Lib would come out with a lootpack medicine show and MORE CDP!!!! EXCEPTIONAL for your underground hiphop library."
