Jackson Conti - Latin Jazz


Sujinho is a latin jazz collaboration album between Otis Jackson Jr., an American hip hop producer and MC known as Madlib, and Ivan Conti, drummer for the Brazilian funk band Azymuth. This album features Brazilian samba music heavily and features one of Madlib's interests in Latin Jazz. So far this album has been released twice, once in the Netherlands on Kindred Spirits in 2x vinyl and in the US on Mochilla Records in CD format. 

The liner notes to Jackson Conti’s Sujinho introduce the album with a simple but intriguing declarative: “Madlib loves Brasilian music.”

First things first. The “Jackson” in “Jackson Conti” is Otis Jackson, Jr., known in music circles as Madlib. Yep, the same “Madlib” who, according to the liner notes, loves Brasilian music. The same Madlib who is quite possibly one of, if not the, hardest working hip-hop artists today. Even if you don’t know his name, chances are good you’ve been exposed to Madlib’s skills on the production tip. Madlib has been the man behind the boards for artists such as Erykah Badu, Talib Kweli, Ghostface Killah, De La Soul, Percee P., and Mos Def.
