Madlib is back with a new single, “REEKYOD,” which features The Roots’ Black Thought and Your Old Droog. The song marks Madlib’s debut release on his own label, Madlib Invazion. Stream it below.
“REEKYOD” is Madlib’s second collaboration of 2024 with Your Old Droog following last month’s “DBZ,” a Madlib-produced effort that also featured Denzel Curry and Method Man. While “DBZ” offered a smooth sound, “REEKYOD” feels more urgent, offering room for the rappers’ respective claims on artistic freedom. “Everything I spit, shine/Imma get mine, regardless,” says Droog.
Speaking about the collaboration, Black Thought shares, “Simply complex, this piece is high art. Triple threat. Instant classique.”
While Madlib is gearing up for a brief string of shows with Freddie Gibbs to celebrate the 10th anniversary of their joint album Piñata (secure tickets here), Droog has an album of his own on the horizon. A release date and title for the project are still forthcoming, but Droog teased that a more substantial collaboration with Madlib might not be too far down the line.
“It’s an honor to be inducted into the heavyweight class of hip hop,” Droog says of “REEKYOD.” “To be able to spar with one of the greatest MC’s on a beat by the greatest producer is a dream come true. Look out for the Madlib x YOD album coming soon.”
