This quickMix™ starts with a hypnotic head-nodder from the prolific mind of Madlib. We then continue into a recently unearthed jazz gem that, according to Gilles Peterson, was created by the ever-nasal Akon's father. We conclude with a master. A rare cut that I went in search of after hearing the Fela section of J. Period & K'naan's "Messengers" mixtape.
