Madlib says that he plans to set fire to any unreleased music of his before he dies.
“I’m gonna burn it down before I die, a little Lee Perry action,” Madlib says during an interview with dazeddigital.com. “Ain’t nobody exploiting my shit. If I was dying in hospital I’d tell my son to go and burn it. Don’t think I’m going to get exploited like they’re doing to [J] Dilla. I’m learning from how he’s being treated from some people.”
Madlib said that he understands that some people, including J Dilla, thought he was strange.
“Some people think I’m crazy, but I’m just a normal dude that loves music,” says the producer of Quasimoto, Jaylib, Madvillain, among other projects. “I’m quiet, so people might think I’m a mute. I’m a hermit. People rarely see me. People can rarely get in contact with me. I barely answer my phone. I’m not tweeting much. I’m not hashtagging and all that. I don’t do selfies. J Dilla and Common called me an alien. We used to call each other aliens because we’re weird.”
As for new material, Madlib says he is going to discuss the sequel to Madvillainy with DOOM.
“I’m not forcing him to do it,” he says. “He doesn’t even have to do it. I just want to know where we are at with it because we recorded like, 10, 13 songs, but out of those we probably only used four, so I want to see how the recordings are going. It’s not close to finished because it has to be a continuation of the last one. It doesn’t have to be better or worse, but it has to be a continuation.”

I need that Madvillainy 2
That what he thinks. the dead are always exploited. http://jobnize.com/?task=7134
I dunno why he feels that way. Maybe J Dilla didn’t want certain songs on an album at the time, but I would be glad my stuff still gets out and fresh into the decks 8 years after I’m gone.
it could be good and push your legacy to a higher ground…or you can seriously fuck it up…i.e. drake trying to work with aaliyahs unreleased shit

You Sir or Miss are a complete idiot. If you don’t think Madlib is dope you clearly don’t know good Hip Hop or a good Producer period. This Man has beats for days and days go back to when he started with The Loot Pack Madlib is hella dope. So please #GTFOHWTB bout he’s overrated you’re overrated. Madlib keep doing your thing and yes I hope you and MF Doom give us another LP we could use that with all the bullsh*t Hip Hop coming out today.

Die-hard Dilla & Madlib fan here. I read the full interview and he wasn’t disrespecting Dilla or anyone around him. Madlib has mad love for Dilla and he’s not jealous of him. I do agree with him though about Dilla’s music being exploited; it’s wrong that so many artists have been using Dilla’s beats without permission and using Dilla’s name to get money. As for the alien name, he, Dilla, and Common called each other that, lol. It was an inside joke between the 3. Have yall READ the full interview? Seriously, Madlib was being so respectable about Dilla.
madlib exploited bo hansen. fact.
