Madlib, the MF DOOM estate, Stones Throw Records, and Rhymesayers Entertainment have released “One Beer (Madlib Remix)” to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the late rapper and producer’s fifth solo album MM..FOOD. The version featured on the album is also produced by Madlib, but was credited to DOOM. The song was supposed to make their seminal work Madvillainy, also from 2004, but they felt it didn’t fit the vibes.
