From the unlikely beach town of Oxnard, 40 miles north of Los Angeles,
the multi-dimensional Madlib quickly rose to prominence as one of the
most interesting figures in late-'90s hip-hop. With his childhood buddies
in the Lootpack, Madlib quickly made a name for himself as a rapper, producer,
and DJ. In particular, his expansive style and deft touch for composition
made him one of hip-hop's most sought-after producers. An enthusiastic
crate digger, with a deep reverence for jazz and soul, Madlib branched
out into a number of ambitious, engaging solo projects.
Along with DJ Romes and Wild Child, Madlib formed the Lootpack in their
hometown of Oxnard. The trio made their debut on tha Alkaholiks' 21 and
Over in 1993. They continued doing work for tha Alkaholiks and other artists
before releasing their full-length Soundpieces: Da Antidote six years
later. The album earned solid reviews but went largely unnoticed. Madlib
did not, however. After hooking up with Los Angeles DJ Peanut Butter Wolf,
Madlib did a lot of production for Wolf's Stones Throw label. In 1999
the label released Quasimoto's astonishing The Unseen LP. Doubling as
himself and his alter ego Quasimoto, Madlib handled vocals and production
duties on the album, a huge critical success.
Not resting on his laurels, Madlib followed The Unseen a year later with
his Yesterday's New Quintet project. Madlib played all the instruments
himself, infusing his exploration of jazz with both style and substance.
While continuing on with a massive release schedule and work load, Madlib
completed a remix/reinterpretation project for Blue Note, a collaboration
with Jay Dee under the Jaylib alias, a collaboration with MF Doom, produced
1/2 of fellow Lootpack member Wildchild's solo record and many other remix
and producer tasks all in 2003.
With each year Madlib has continued to expand his abilities beyond the
core hip hop that he is known for.
