Run The Jewels
Killer Mike & El-P
Fool’s Gold
El-P and Killer Mike extend their win streak on collaborations with this swift kick to the gut of an album. Each track hits harder than the previous one with the production and lyrics. But they’re not just concerned with repossessing your valuables. They drop jewels of knowledge about the messed up society we all live in and the vulnerable sides of their past. If Run DMC and NWA put out an album in 2013, this is what it would sound like.
