The song instead ended up being used on MF Doom's 2004 album 'Mm..Food', credited to MF Doom instead of Madvillain. "One Beer" was released as a limited-press 7" single in 2004, given away by select online retailers with copies of 'Madvillainy'. An animated music video was released on 16 November 2018, 14 years after 'Mm..Food''s release. Background "One Beer" was originally recorded for 'Madvillainy', but Doom and Madlib felt it didn't fit the record and decided to leave it off. 1000 copies were pressed to 7" vinyl and given away by select online retailers with copies of 'Madvillainy' upon the album's release. The song samples French jazz-funk band Cortex's 1975 song "Huit Octobre 1971". Music video On 16 November 2018, the 14th anniversary of 'Mm..Food''s release, Rhymesayers Entertainment released an animated music video for "One Beer", created by Philadelphia visual artist Anhia Zaira Santana, also known as "Distortedd". The Japanese anime-styled video features multiple characters as Cyclopes fighting over the last can of beer, including Doom himself and Madlib's alter ego Lord Quas. In the video, a young Cyclops girl drinks from a can of beer, and later takes a psychedelic mushroom dropped by Lord Quas, sending her into a drug-induced hallucination where she believes she is shrunken down and chased by a three-eyed cat. At the end of the video she is rescued by Doom and Lord Quas in a UFO. The video's style is highly reminiscent of early 2000's Flash and Newgrounds animations. Santana said of the collaboration, "Dream come true. I collaborated with the , my favorite artist/best artist of all time".

Madlib attempted to remix the track so that it could be used for 'Madvillainy', but the results were deemed "too weird" and it was left off the album. The only copy of this remix, dubbed the "Drunk Version" by label Stones Throw, was burned to a CD and then lost in Madlib's studio. The CD was re-discovered in 2005 and later included with 'Madvillainy 2: The Box' as a 12" single. References
