Another in my line of mash-ups in honor of the young jazz rebel, Madlib.
The first word that popped into my mind when I heard this beat was 'triumphant'. Easily one of Madlib's hardest bangers. So who would work well with such a banging beat? Why, Biggie of course! There are parts of this that are a bit forced, and the name sucks, but the overall sound is brilliant.
This was made using Madlib's "The Payback (Gotta)"and Biggie Smalls' "Everyday Struggle".
Oddisee is one of the many up-and-coming beatmakers in this new wave of production whose ability and raw talent is truly jaw-dropping. Just skip over Asher Roth's verse. Yuck. Arby Wan Kenobi
