Detroit veteran Guilty Simpson and Cali’s own Madlib debut their collabo album, O.J. Simpson. This one was long awaited and so for those who can’t wait any longer, you can purchase the digital release from Stones Throw yet the street date is May 18. This is my sheeeit!

OJ Simpson. That’s the name of the album. No bloody gloves. No Ford Broncos. These are some 12 hard-hitting hip-hop tracks featuring Guilty’s inimitable baritone, and an equal number of Madlib’s signature album-as-soundtrack/radio/sideshow arrangements, where the beat & sequence is as important as the rap. This, with a couple no-nonsense guest appearances, some cuts by J.Rocc, and a whole bunch of attitude, makes up one of our favorite projects in a while.
