Madlib, for Stones Throw Records

After several years of trying to photograph Madlib, I finally had the chance last Friday.. I had about 10 minutes of light to work with, and the rain had stopped for a minute to let me shoot. The actual assignment was to get shots of both Madlib, and Freddie Gibbs, to announce the new album they have been working on, which you can read about here..

I’ll post up those photos, from what turned into a long night of shooting, but for now, this is an out take of Madlib, that I shot for myself..
