In a 2010 interview with LA Weekly, Madlib stated that Kanye West put five of his beats on hold for the album he was working on at the time. While none of the beats were used, Madlib did take part in the recording sessions for the album, which evolved from "Good Ass Job" to "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy". He was also rumored to be involved in West's collaboration album with Jay-Z entitled "Watch the Throne", but ultimately was not. West was interviewed as part of the 2014 Stones Throw documentary film "Our Vinyl Weighs A Ton", in which he opens up about working with Madlib and wanting more of his beats for future projects.
