All photos by Imran CiesayIt's not often that you get the opportunity to witness Madlib in the flesh. Dude is responsible for Madvillainy (one of the GOAT hip-hop albums of the 2000s), he helped to put Stones Throw on the map, and most recently he released Pinata, a collaborative album with Freddie Gibbs - yet he's still fairly reclusive; a living legend. I wanted to be first in line.While waiting for Madlib we caught a bunch of people including Chi-town native Jeremiah Jae. Here's a selection of photos from the evening.

First of all, dude, venues have things called cloakrooms - you might want to make use of one before you come down to the front row looking like Dasher the flasher and start taking photos for your creepy "women looking up at Madlib" blog.
