Stones Throw Records, label home to Madvillian, Madlib and the late J. Dilla, will be releasing a DVD titled In Living The True God.

According to Drowned In Sound.com, the DVD will include videos and performance footage from the aforementioned artists and other acts on the Stones Throw roster.

The DVD will also include a 2003 J Dilla interview. A release date for the project has not been determined.

 


FOR THE CAUSE

 

Immortal Technique will be performing at a benefit show for the Jena 6 in New York next month.

The concert will take place at Lehman College in the Bronx on November 1st from 6pm-9pm at the Lovinger Theater.

“This is a benefit show with all proceeds going towards the legal defense fund for the Jena 6,” Technique said in a statement. “It is important to rally and march but it is equally, if not more important, to speak by enforcing the necessary channels for legal action.”
