Notes
The tracklist on the record's label is a misprint. On the record, Side A of this album ends at "Rainbows (Demo)". Side B begins with "Just for Kicks". Another misprint is present on the back cover, which numbers track positions 7 and 8 twice. This causes the tracklist to end at 12 songs, yet actually contains 14 songs.
Sticker on shrink wrap reads:
"DOOM AND MADLIB
MADVILLAIN DEMOS
EARLY DEMOS OF THE ICONIC HIP-HOP ALBUM
FIRST TIME ON VINYL
In November 2002, the first demo sequence of Madvillainy leaked online. The tracks contained early vocal cuts from Madlib's Bomb Shelter studio. It may have been unfinished, but fans understood that this was a hip-hop album unlike any other.
DOOM rerecorded vocals - alluding to the leak on "Rhinestone Cowboy" - and Madlib added new beats and changed up the sequence. Leaks could kill an album's momentum in the early 2000s, but the demos only whetted fans' appetites; when Madvillainy came out in 2004 it was "One of the most anticipated released in underground rap history," according to Pitchfork. Madvillainy is now regarded as one of the greatest hip-hop albums of all time."

Edited 3 months agoIndeed very cool to have my very first touch with Madvillain now on vinyl 😇
Please make it happen as well for the ‘Rough Drafts’ of JayLib - an execution I always took over the end published album to be honest 🙏
(plus include it with the YNQ outings) -
Edited 13 days agoThis is how I first heard Madvillainy: well before the official album dropped, bumping via CD-R through the lackluster speakers of a Nissan Sentra. Very nice to have this on wax, even tho it kind of sucks to have to turn it over half way through. -
My only gripe with the cover is that there isn’t a colored square in the top right to continue the madvillainy tradition -
Just for clarification this is the '02 leak with better mixing and rainbows added as a track after Figaro -
This sounds good. It’s interesting how these tracks progressed to the final album. I am glad the finalization of this album went the way it did.
