The legendary producer/DJ Madlib is launching the Madlib Medicine Show, a once-a-month, twelve-CD, six-LP series. The series will be a combination of Madlib’s new hip-hop productions, remixes, beat tapes, and jazz, as well as mixtapes of funk, soul, Brazilian, psych, jazz and other lesser explored genres of music.

The first installation is “Before The Verdict” featuring Guilty Simpson, a 17-track album mixing remixes and new material, serving as an early look at Madlib & Guilty Simpson‘s forthcoming “OJ Simpson” album.
