Damn, why Madlib?
World's been robbed...well, moreso the Cali victims.
i was a bout to ask the insurance situation because I was confusedThe fact insurance companies won't pay makes this worse.
I do feel for cats like Lib and others who are gonna get screwed over and others who have lost their lives.
But the bozos can (looking at you James Woods)
Soon as I saw where it was he was one of the first people that came to mind
Joey Chavez from Sid Roams lost his home too. Ev posted that, and so far he hasn't posted anything bad about his place or anyone else's that I know ofYeah, he's been out on Santa Monica beach for a while. Studio is attached to his kitchen. I'm getting worried this his place may not have survived either.
Come to think of it, it's mad producers out in that area...Hit Boy, Flying Lotus, EV
Crabs in a bucket mentality. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if there's an outpouring of people trying to get this man back on his feet GLOBALLY speaking. The amount of folks that know how much of a curator he is, I wouldn't be surprised to find out the amount of records people just send this man on good will. It doesn't replace what he lost but I feel like if anything in 2025, we need to just tune out the bullshyt negativity that is abound from every apathetic piece of shyt having a voice nowThe amount of people on IG blaming him and others for "not just moving their shyt and leaving before the fire got to their houses" really bummed me out. And/or just assuming that he must be rich so he'll be okay. So many people are both stupid and insensitive and unkind.
1 weekBut those vinyls were of African, Brazilian and Caribbean non FBA artists…
I have three albums framed next to each other up in my bedroom and looking at them now, they look and feel like three deeply ominous tarot cards that were drawn from a deck
