Run The Jewels - RTJ4 (Discussion Thread)

[mbz]

The first song I mentioned was “That’s Life” from I Pledge Allegiance To The GRIND. Back when Pill was still rapping and Cuz Lightyear was better known as SL Jones. fukk out my face talking about I don’t know his work. I doubt highly you were listening in ‘06.

Actually '06-'07 was right when I got introduced to mike...close one . Now can you name a few songs since he joined up with El-P that covers police brutality? Don't worry, I'll allow you to use google.

If a business is not paying its employees enough to live. Why does that business matter? If that’s poor reasoning to you, I don’t know what to tell you, g.

Are you really this braindead? I never gave you my opinion on the living wage, and that's not relevant.

What's relevant is you willing to brush off all the looting and rioting due to the possibility that some of those businesses don't offer a living wage. This is you literally neglecting businesses that DO offer a living wage.

You think looters carry out a pre-riot analysis on the districts to see which businesses meets your standards of deserved looting?

I'm done with this shyt. And fukk you for making us derail what is supposed to be a discussion of a dope album.

Voting in November is exactly what people should be saying..the fukk. That's exactly how we got into this situation. Motherfukkers not voting..so many people of color can't vote and those who can most don't. Protesting and looting is just one step in changing things VOTING is the other..cant believe motherfukkers in here questioning Mike. Came in here to talk about how dope this album is and end up reading this dumb shyt

I have nothing against voting. My only issue is that at a time like this, it isn't something that people want to hear because it is something that was already pushed before. Campaigning and what was still going on amid COVID and everyone is aware that this the big election year.

The crazy part about voting is the last thing we need is Trump being re-elected. Still, it is a lot that goes on in local governments that need changing.

Album is fukking dope its about time we start talking about where they belong on the top Duos of all time list

They’re getting up there for me. 4 straight heaters. How many rappers of rap groups doing that?

I listened to the first 3 albums and felt like I was having to force myself to like it just cause I’ve been a Killer Mike fan for a long time along with Gangsta Boo and David Banner being on tracks, but outside of R.A.P. Music, El-P’s beats suck. I can’t take those goofy Danny Brown throwaways

Holy shyt some of the comments in here.

Mike has done more for his community and his city than the combined lifetimes of all you lowlifes.

But please go ahead and keyboard warrior yourself away in the comfort of your homes lmao.

Album been out for 9 hours and all I see is two pages of people whining about his character, meanwhile these same folk will catapult a new Drake mixtape to 400 pages within the same time period. Good one .

Am I smelling a cac infestation in here?

This is actually a funny line here cause I’ve heard these RTJ albums referred to as “white people revolutionary music”

 

[ℒℴѵℯJay ELECTUA]

Big Mike was on his black panther ish? What happened?

 

[Metal Face]

I like a couple RTJ tracks but they shyt always been for cacs that aren't into hip hop like that.

even CM Punk bumps them

 

[bordeaux]

well i assume the mayor said 't.i. and killer mike own half the westside' for a reason. i could understand two black men who actually attempted to 'buy back the block' being upset their black- owned businesses were being destroyed...im not the biggest rtj fan. i cant remember if i even listened to the last album. but this is easily one of the better albums ive heard this year--the rapping is especially good. alot of the lyrics r very timely.

 

[ManBearPig]

Really dope

 

[Moose_Greyjoy]

Much better than RTJ 3, couldn’t really get into 3. Off first listen it sounds like it could be there best project

 

[Moose_Greyjoy]

Btw, why do posters come in RTJ threads knowing they hate El

 

[Damnshow]

They still making albums. RTJ is not a good duo. Mike can rap. But el-p is one of the worst rappers of all time. 20+ years in the game and still can't rap for shyt. And his production is overrated, same fukking soulless EDM garbage. These dudes like el-p made the underground hip hop damn near unlistenable.

 

[GUCCI C0ND0MS]

Why is this stickied? This is rap made for people that don't like rap.

LOL. White people revolutionary music is the perfect description of RTJ albums. A cac with action bronson type of beard and flannel shirt. That's the type of people who listen to this shyt
