Finally got around to peeping this.

El-P's production on this might imo be his best, and the production here is a clear evolution from the 1st two Run The Jewels albums. Wouldn't have expected a "2100" or "Down" from them a year or so ago, keeping it a buck.

The lyricism is superb on this. I like the fact the political stance is more in your face so to speak on this. The braggadocio angle is a nice little contrast too.

I think the biggest surprise for alot of listeners was Zach De La Rocha feature at the end. The groups best verses may have been El-P 1st verse on Thursday in the Danger Room, Killer Mike 1st verse on the closing track. Call Tickerton might be the most replayable track for me.

Been giving this extra burn lately. "Kill Your Masters" REALLY grew on me.

This is the best one they've released. I feel like the beats arent as crazy and fit Killer Mike alot better
