Madlib - Cruddy
Released on an ultra-rare mixtape, it gets to the heart of the California legend's practice. Sonically, it's in line with his psychedelic, distinctly west-coast take on the '90s boom bap sound. Then there's the lyrics. "Why you sample so much?" a skeptical voice asks. "Loopin' records is a habit," Madlib responds. "I be havin' dusty ass fingers, from digging for wax."
