So it turns out that "rediscovered" Madlib project from earlier this week (Beat Konducta in Lecce) was nothing more than a diehard's mix of favorite instrumentals (salute Rappamelo for that 20-minute tape -- fantastic work.) But don't fret, Lord Quas is getting ready to step out and treat a select group of cities to some live and direct heat. According to Rappcats, Madlib will embark on a seven-date tour this summer and fall, commencing with a set at Copenhagen's Distortion Festival and capping off in October at Miami's III Points Festival.
A few weeks back, Freddie Gibbs confirmed that their follow-up to Pinata (tentatively titled, Bandana,) had been completed along with two other Gibbs projects. No release date has been revealed just yet, but a grip of new live shows seems like the perfect place to start teasing. In any case, you can peep the full itinerary down below along with Rappamelo's other Madlib mix, Beat Konducta in Alberobello.
