Look. I wasn’t too impressed with the first Madlib Medicine Show. You know, the one where ‘Lib essentially remixed Guilty Simpson’s Ode to the Ghetto while adding a few new tracks and a bunch of radio-themed interludes. I know what the blunted producer was going for, but it seemed to get lost in the fluff. Beyond that, though, there was the fact that I felt Oh No had already done a much better job tackling Simpson’s gun-toting bravado with Ghettodes. The only problem with that project was the fact that it never saw a proper releases outside of scattered leaks from Stones Throw. But that all changes now, because, well, who loves you more than Stones Throw, apparently.

Just as the two have done before, Mr. Lif and Edan teamed up to show off their skills and how much they complement one another. But this time around, they spit over production from the Whitefield Brothers, a group on Now-Again Records. The track, “The Gift”, appeared on the Brothers’ Earthology album that dropped recently. But Oh No just couldn’t let the track go by untouched. He remixed the joint with one of his Dr. No’s Ethiopium beats to transform it into something completely different. And, because Now-Again and Stones Throw are the best, we have it here for free download, though you can buy it here.

Stones Throw just threw this joint up on Twitter from a brand new compilation called Forge Your Own Chains. You can read more about the compilation here, but from what I read, it sounds pretty damn dope. But all that aside, here’s a new track from Guilty Simpson & Oh No called “My Time to Shine”. But it’s not what you think. First, you have Guilty spittin’ like the monster he is over the original sample. And then, Oh No flips the sample for the second-half of the track. You gotta love it.
