Even the most ardent fan can find it difficult to keep up with the frantic pace kept by the mercurial Otis Jackson Jr., better known as DJ/producer/MC Madlib . While keeping tabs on Madlib would require near-daily updates, we've pulled together a snapshot of what the prolific musician has on his plate right now. As always, it's a big plate. Fans of Stones Throw Records already know the resident über-producer has a lot on his plate this year with the Madlib Medicine Show . For those [...]

If those names don't ring a bell, you're probably not a fan of super producers giving away their best beats to seemingly undeserving rappers. That's not a diss: I honestly doubt that anyone is picking up Stoney Jackson on the strength of Strong Arm Steady's rapping same as Lil Dap [...]
