Madlib Booking Agency Profile

Book Madlib for your next corporate event, function, or private party.
Madlib is the stage name of Otis Jackson Jr., an American DJ, music producer, multi-instrumentalist, and rapper. Madlib was born in the United States. His work with MF DOOM (under the name Madvillain), J Dilla (under the name Jaylib), and Freddie Gibbs has brought him widespread recognition (as MadGibbs). Madlib has stated that he considers himself to be a DJ first, a producer second, and an MC third. It is an acronym for "Mind Altering Demented Lessons In Beats," which is the meaning of his stage name. Otis Jackson Jr. was born on October 24, 1973 in Oxnard, California, to musicians Otis Jackson, Sr. and Dora Sinesca Jackson. Both of Otis Jackson's parents were musicians. At the age of 11, he took a sample from his father's collection of music and used it to create his first song. Michael "Oh No" Jackson, the youngest of the two brothers, is a record producer and rapper. Jon Faddis, a well-known jazz trumpeter, is his uncle. He began his career as a musician in Oxnard, the city in which he was raised. In an interview that was conducted on Chrome Children, Madlib revealed that Miles Davis, Sun Ra, and David Axelrod are the three musicians who have had the greatest impact on his musical style. Large Professor, Marley Marl, Paul C, DJ Pooh, and Dr. Dre are just a few of the hip hop artists who have influenced him. The song "Mars Only pt. 3," which was a collaboration between the rapper Logic and Madlib, was published on Logic's YouTube channel on April 23, 2021 under the name Madgic..

Frequently Asked Questions about booking Madlib to perform.

Many performers, actors, speakers and other talent like Madlib in certain cases will consider virtual appearances via live streaming. They perhaps may accept lower fees too. If you are seriously interested in booking Madlib or other talent shown on our site, we will research their desire and the specific fee for your live-streaming event or project request.
Madlib's current work schedule and location in relation to your event's type, date, budget, and locality will play a primary factor in the acceptance of booking Madlib for your party. As long as your funding is commensurate with the price range to book Madlib, CTI will propose your event to the official agency representing Madlib. After we consult with them, we will provide a personal and accurate quote that includes: final costs, availability, and actual interest in being hired for your specific event or party.
CTI can give you the accurate Madlib booking price once we submit your event details to their camp. "How much does it cost to book Madlib for an event?" is a frequent question we get. The final Madlib booking price is contingent on many variables and the booking fee we may show is based on a range derived from our past experience with what will Madlib charge for an event. An example fee to book Madlib is in the starting range of $15,000-$24,999. However, any recent popularity change would cause a price fluctuation well beyond this example. Also, their speaking fee might be different than the fee shown for the cost to perform or to just appear. Popularity, career stage, along with current demand will cause fluctuations in their speaking price as well. The final booking price may be more than what is shown, but you should at least have a budget within that range for them to consider an appearance, performance or speaking engagement.
CTI negotiates on behalf of professional event planners and talent buyers for paid appearances! We cannot give out direct contact information of the Madlib agent or help distribute fan mail, personal messages, gifts, requests for free appearances, or donations of time. The Madlib manager and agent will only work with us if we present them with funded offers for their client to work your event.
There is low probability to book Madlib for a party with anything substantially less than the published booking cost price range. We will negotiate with the Madlib agent on your behalf if your funding is in place. By not having funding ready then it will more difficult to book Madlib, because they get many offers to work events that are at or above asking price. It is also important to consider the travel costs when researching the Madlib booking fee, as additional expenses like this, as well as an entourage of staff and equipment, are not necessarily built-in to the booking fee range shown. If your budget does not factor that in, then there is no benefit for them to want to be hired. We do not personally speak for Madlib, but in our experience in booking talent for over 25 years, this is generally the outcome of inadequate funding.
