Madlib: maverick, prolific, and tirelessly uninhibited. 'W.L.I.B. AM. King of the Wigflip', the final instalment in the Beat Generation series, finds Madlib venturing away from the deconstruction of world rhythms on recent projects and returning to his Western hemisphere roots in hip-hop and R&B.
Starting with the ominous, tribal overtones of 'The New Resident' its spiritual spank followed by the customarily aggressive Guilty Simpson on the brassy, stabbing 'Blow the Horns On 'Em' In getting back to basics, lyricism is in full effect, courtesy of Cali cohorts such as Defari on the driving, speed-limit bass funk of 'Gamble On Ya Boy', MED and Poke's ode to home stance with the fury of 'The Ox (805)' and Murs doing what Murs do in addressing the "can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em" state of male-female relations over the electro-pulse minimalism of 'Ratrace'. Beat Konducta The Younger, Oh No, teams up with big brother Madlib as The Professionals on 'I Want It Back' while the maestro himself steps away from his helm at the beat machine and drops into the vocal booth on the audacious 'Heat'. World Famous Beat Junkie J.Rocc heralds the return of the DJ with cuts on 'Blindfold Test #10 (He Don't Play)' before the proceedings venturing eastward with Detroit's party hearty Frank N' Dank riding the humming, percussive 'Drinks Up!' like Motor City madmen. Another Motown-born MC, former Common and Kanye West sideman, Karriem Riggins, provides a glimpse into the Madlib-Riggins Supreme Team pairing on the melancholy 'Life', while veteran Prince Po provides a standout cameo with the vibrant buoyancy of 'The Thang-Thang'. Talib Kweli, Georgia Anne Muldrow, Roc C, and the songbird styling of Frezna ('Yo-Yo Affair, parts 1 & 2') and Stacy Epps round out 'W.L.I.B. AM. King of the Wigflip', which is woven together by dusty interludes and instrumentals like few but The Beat Konducta can. View full press release here. Check the teaser trailer: |
