Run the Jewels (Killer Mike and El-P)

The Run the Jewels album released last year stands as one of my favorite hip-hop albums of recent times. The production and beats are just off the chart. The hard-hitting nature of the music sounds particularly kick-ass on a nice set of speakers. Lyrically, it's decent, but it's the heavy sound of this album's production that keeps drawing me back. Production-wise, this album really marks a step forward for modern hip-hop music.

I absolutely love RTJ

If you have Netflix you should watch Trigger Warning w/ Killer Mike. He does his verse from Lie Cheat Steal for a bunch of senior citizens in a retirement home. And it's not done for shock value but to help bridge that cultural gap. There were a quite a few elders who were into it.

 

If killer Mike doesn't rap about killing anybody ill be disappointed.

 

Top billin', come cops and villainous shots is blocked, shipped out, and bought, and you're feeling it
El-P killing it, Killer Mike killing shit

 

He kills the mike. Let's hope its with his mouth, not another bodily hole

 

Yes! I love Run the Jewels. Definitely my favorite newer hip hop group.

We are the murderous pair
That went to jail and we murdered the murderers there
Then went to Hell and discovered the devil
Delivered some hurt and despair

 

Step into the spotlight WOO!

 

No blood or guts.

In the same way its how Machine Gun Kelly disappointed me. Awesome name, doesn't machine gun shoot anybody.

 

I'm the same way about Mel the Molestor (a.k.a. Malicious Mel)

 

Errr...

I'll molest a consenting adult of age but that's it

 

*hope restored* Oh wait, do i read consenting? That's not malicious!

 

New album dropped today

 

Oh yay!
Haha "yay"
The most basic white girl response ever to a hip hop group dropping a new album

 

lol that made me laugh
