    20 years sounds like a good time to put out another Madlib project on Blue Note

    Man, he's so humble about it all. I listen and get inspired by this album about once a month, and it means the world to me. And here he is just talking about it like it's something he could knock out between a bowl of cornflakes and some coffee. That's the way of a musical craftsman and a consummate beatmaking professional.

      I met him 15 years ago at a random questlove party.. told him my favorite song was africa face the sun
      and he threw his hand and brushed it off like it was nothing special he did

    ...Madlib should host whatever the equivalent of Actors Studio is in music and share all his wealth of knowledge and music curating as he talks with other giants of music, production, and beats. I know that'd be his nightmare tho lol, love seeing my guy come out and talk a hit here and there!

    Oh man, I just recently copped this record by Madlib like maybe 2 months ago and I can't believe it's 20 yrs since it was released. This album is just as timeless as the Blue Note records it sheds light on, which probably just goes to show that love is that arch over time that connects like-minded souls. The levels of funky jazz on Slim's Return is just jaw-dropping, and laced with the beat & scratching is otherworldly sublime. I could listen to this whole masterclass record on repeat.

    Love this record, scrambled years ago to own one, and now I can't go into a shop without seeing various release versions of it. It's been 20 years though. WE NEED A VOL. 2 FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!!!!

    I can't believe it's been 20 years since this classic of an album dropped. This was the first Madlib album I purchased. I remember buying at a Barnes and Nobles. I hope he drops a second "Shades of Blue" album soon, because he's mentioned about putting out a second Blue Note jazz album, but has yet to put it out. Much respect to Madlib as always.

    If he really does do another Blue Note revisited, he has to go full blown Yesterday’s New Quintet on it, preferably approached like a Joe McDuphrey project.

      @@paisleyblvd.8465 When you said "up and comer" I assumed it wouldn't be artists who've been on the scene for over a decade. Majority of those artist you listed have been around closer to 20 years. If you had said just other hip hop artists who mess with the jazz genre as well then yes they fit into that category. But I don't consider someone who's been at their careers for 10-20 years up and comers. That's just me.
