When we uploaded Madvillain’s “Accordion” video back in 2008, YouTube wasn’t capable of hosting HD videos, let alone 4k. To celebrate the two-decade anniversary of Madvillainy and our upcoming release of Madvillainy Demos and the Audiophile Edition – out November 29, 2024 – the original music video director Andrew Gura has remastered both the “Accordion” and “Rhinestone Cowboy” music videos from the original DV files.

And can they testify from in the spirit? (Nah) In living, the true gods Giving y’all nothing but the lick like two broads Got more lyrics than the church got “Ooh, Lord”s And he hold the mic and your attention like two swords Either that or either one with two blades on it Hey you, don’t touch the mic like it’s AIDS on it (Yuck) It’s like the end to the means Fuck type of message that sends to the fiends? That’s why he bring his own needles And get more cheese than Doritos, Cheetos or Fritos Slip like Freudian Your first and last step to playing yourself like accordion When he at the mic, you don’t go next Leaving pussy cats like why hoes need Kotex Exercise index, won’t need Bowflex And won’t take the one with no skinny legs like Joe Tex #Madvillain #MFDOOM #Madlib #Accordion #Madvillainy #StonesThrow
