'Madvillain 2' complete?

J.Rocc & Madlib were recently over in Paris for a few nights doing Stones Throw shows, and we're hearing that J.Rocc spun a couple of cuts from the new Madvillain album.

DOOM has said he will have some more releases this year, so is the second Madvillain album coming soon? I certainly hope so.

[There's some footage of J.Rocc spinning the MV2 cuts on YouTube, but the audio quality is terrible and nothing can really be made out]

Stones Throw also posted this picture from the tour up on their website...

Toney Starks claims to have finished his parts of 'Swift and Changeable'

In a recent interview, Ghostface Killah was asked about the status of 'Swift & Changeable', his long awaited collaboration album with MF DOOM. Here's what he had to say...

Speaking of villains, is your collaboration with MF DOOM [Swift and Changable] ever going to come out?

I just finished all my parts to the album, so it’ll come out soon enough.


Ghostface was also asked about the "DOOMposter" situation which had been going on:


What's your opinion on DOOM's sending a lip-synching imposter to perform at his shows?

I never heard that... I don’t think that’s true, but you know somebody must be under the mask. That shit’s crazy.


I guess Ghost hasn't read any of the new DOOM interviews...

J Dilla's latest album, 'Jay Stay Paid', in stores now! [DOOM featured]

The latest J Dilla album, which features a DOOM track, hit shelves this past Tuesday.

DOOM's track is titled "Fire Wood Drumstix". Typical DOOM; this track is short & sweet.

Click HERE for a snippet.

This album is dope; it's supposed to play like a radio broadcast and is mixed by Pete Rock. Ma Dukes put it together, so you know the money will be going to the correct places.

Other artists featured include Black Thought, Raekwon, Blu, Illa J & more!

Rest In Peace, Jay. You're forever missed.

Daniel Dumile attends Soundset '09 and performs as MF DOOM

On May 24, Daniel Dumile surprised the masses by showing up to Soundset '09, and performing as MF DOOM.

This is the first time he's shown up and performed in years!

I was supposed to attend the even, but had to pull out at the last minute due to a family emergency.

Here's some photos and video from the event:
