Finally, the missing piece of the puzzle: Madlib’s Medicine Show #9: Channel 85 presents Nittyville, a concept album about a fictitious TV station, is seeing release May 17 (CD) or May 31 (LP) via Stones Throw. Yeah, yeah, Madlib has already released entries #8 and #10, so the purity of the series’ chronology is effectively ruined, but I dare you to care as you listen to Frank Nitt drop his rhymes over Madlib’s hot-as-always production. As one SoundCloud user put it: “Damn Son Its Neck Wrenching!”
