Description
Madlib resurrects his sticky-green obsessed, helium-huffing alter-ego, Quasimoto, for theßThe Further Adventures of Lord Quas. While Madlib has always been one of the most experimentally savvy beatmakers in the underground, his creation of the electronically altered narrator Quasimoto, has become one of his biggest selling points for alternatively minded fans. Quas made his full-length debut in 2000 onßThe Unseen, an album which reached over 38,182 fans, and was dubbed one of the "Top 20 albums of 2000" by bothßSPINßandßURB. Meanwhile Madlib's Quas-filled collaboration with M.F. Doom onßMadvillainyßhas been deemed a cult classic. Madlib does not dissapoint onßThe Further Adventures of Lord Quas, with drunkard Old Willy appearing in a comedy sketched out over an equally quirky beat on "Bus Ride," while Quas narrates a hip-hop history lesson on "Rappcats," and takes bong hits while reminiscing over the essential role weed plays in his artistic process on "Greenery." The new album includes 26 tracks, with only two guest shots: one from Doom (for the return of Madvillain) and another from Medaphoar.
