Madlib and Guilty Simpson - The Paper
Once again Madlib is at it again with more multivolume compilations called the “Madlib Medicine Show” with Vol 1 as an entire comp of Guilty Simpson tracks and remixes of his older material.
Announcement: Madlib X Strong Arm Steady
(via ST Newsletter)
Madlib has produced an album for Los Angeles rappers Strong Arm Steady (Krondon & Phil Da Agony) which is being completed this week. The album will be titled “Stoney Jackson” and features Talib Kweli, Phonte, Planet Asia, and Oh No among others. We’ll have a full announcement for this record and a digital pre-release coming soon.
Madlib is also working on an album with Guilty Simpson titled “OJ Simpson” which will be released later, after the Strong Arm Steady collab. These two albums are the newest in a long line of Madlib hip-hop collab/production, including Madvillain, Jaylib and Quasimoto.

JR & PH7 “Top Rank” feat. Guilty Simpson and Black Milk (via Vimeo)
This German producer-duo is finally gaining the attention of the states with their music video promoting their first single off their album The Standard. They rounded up some pretty big independent hip hop heavyhitters on their album like the Oddisee, Supastition, and some cats from the Justus Leauge. Definitely give them some of your attention if you’re looking for some international collaborations.

OJ Simpson (Guilty Simpson x Madlib) - Coroner’s Music (via OKP/ST)
The charisma that Detroit’s heavy hitting MC Guilty Simpson and the Los Angeles based Beat Konducta Madlib share is undeniable. A string of songs going back to Guilty’s first appearance on wax (Jaylib’s “Strapped”) testify to a musical kinship that is rare in today’s rapper-as-an-accessory marketplace. To us, Guilty over a Madlib beat is like hearing Guru over Premier circa Daily Operation, or CL over Pete around the time they recorded “Straighten It Out.” Some times, a rapper and a producer just work well together.
The two together making OJ Simpson, Madlib (Otis Jackson) and Guilty Simpson. OJ Simpson is the name of the album. No, you won’t hear Guilty make any references to bloody gloves. No, you won’t catch Madlib driving a bronco. These are some 14 hard hitting, straight from the gutter hip hop tracks featuring Guilty’s inimitable baritone and a couple guest appearances (Elzhi, Strong Arm Steady). Some cuts by J.Rocc. And a whole bunch of attitude. This is one of our favorite projects in a while.
We’re releasing this teaser single – the title track and the needs-nothing-more-than-the-title verbal onslaight that is “Coroner’s Music” - to remind you of the hip hop you’ve missed. The album drops this fall.
