Frogtoon Music - Song Info: Shadows of Tomorrow

The Song Features Excerpts From The 1974’s Movie “Space Is The Place” By Musician Sun Ra. Madlib Handles All The Rapping On This Track – Rapping The First Verse Under His High-Pitched Alter-Ego Quasimoto Then Switching To His Normal Voice For The Second. “Shadows Of Tomorrow” Is A Tribute To Sun Ra In Which Madlib Lyricizes Ra Philosophy And Even Repeats The Name “Sun Ra” Over And Over. The Title Of The Track Is Taken From A Song Ra Wrote Titled “The Shadows Cast By Tomorrow” That Was Released On A Limited 7-Inch Hand-Painted By Ra. In The Spirit Of His Predecessor Madlib Claims To Be Part-Alien And Speaks Coolly About Music In A Way That Stretches Beyond Earthly Restraint. Source Propeller Mag Quasimoto’s Verse Comes From A Poem Sun Ra Wrote On The Back Of His "Angels And Demons At Play" Album.
