you've never heard more than 1 madlib beat to say that bullshyt.

you internet hipsters hopped on alchs dykk when he started working with these hipster MCs like curren$Y and action Bronson and now he's top 5 gtfoh

I swear if lib released more music and collabd more it would be undeniable.

alchemist is top 5 because of his work ethic and consistency.

faglib just cant compare and his sound quality is shyt

Madlib is better.

Beat for beat, Al has more bangers but Lib is a genuine mad scientist. He's like the modern equivalent of a crazy ass jazz musician like Sun Ra or Monk. The way he creates unique soundscapes on his albums are almost unparalleled.

Al in recent years has produced a lot of dope albums but he's nothing on the level of The Unseen or Madvilliany.

I also feel Lib has heavily influenced Al's recent music. Russian Roulette wouldn't exist without Lib's Beat Konducta joints. The random samples, interludes and half baked dusty sound is pure Lib.
