This nine song collaborative beauty was released as free download at the beginning of this year. If you somehow managed to miss it hopefully it will be released once more. I can’t tell you how much I adore Madlib’s production skills, he’s really shining as a hiphop producer and Kweli’s lyrical flow and voice suits Madlib’s jazzy vibes perfectly, so this combination is heaven sent. Right now “What Can I do?” with its retro cinematic strings is stuck on repeat, along with the newschool piece “The Function” which sees a feat by Strong Arm Steady from Kweli’s Blacksmith Records.
