There's only one name to drop when I'm talking about my discovery of Stones Throw Records: The Beat Konducta aka. MADLIB!One of my favorite hip-hop producers of all time, directly in line with J Dilla, Dj Premier and The RZA.
My favorite Madlib album is the one he did for Blue Note Records: Shades of Blue. Download it here!
