Madvillany

£10.00

This book celebrates ‘Madvillainy’ as a representation of two genius musical minds melding to form one revered supervillain. A product of circumstance, the album came together soon after MF DOOM’s resurgence and Madlib’s reluctant return from avant-garde jazz to hip-hop. Written from the alternating perspectives of three fake music journalist superheroes – featuring interviews with Wildchild, M.E.D., Walasia, Daedalus, Stones Throw execs, and many other real individuals involved with the album’s creation – this book blends fiction and non-fiction to celebrate ‘Madvillainy’ not just as an album, but as a folkloric artifact. It is one specific retelling of a story which, like Madvillain’s music, continues to spawn infinite legends.
