Rules:

1. Use proper title formatDo not make up post tags. New releases should be tagged [FRESH], [FRESH ALBUM] (or MIXTAPE) or [FRESH VIDEO] only. [FRESH] tags should only be applied to official music & music videos, not leaks, interviews, articles, art, live footage, etc. [SHOTS FIRED] should only be used for legitimate beef, not jokes or competition among artists.

Song posts must follow the 'Artist - Title (Description)' format with 80 character or less descriptions. Hashtagged keywords & emojis in titles are not allowed.

Post Tags:

[FRESH] [ORIGINAL] [HYPE] [SHOTS FIRED] [DISCUSSION] [LEAK] [MIXTAPE]

What's that "ep for beats" thing? I wanna see that.

@spiderhamster so after def jux collapsed, el-p was looking for work and a dude at adult swim was like bro make some beats for us and we'll pay you (long standing relationship thru def jux). so el-p was working on a project called run the jewels that was just going to be an ep of beats. so said dude was like 'yo you need to do at least one song with killer mike.' the beat project turned into a full ass group and here we are!

Love the music but Killer Mike is a fake

[–] humiddragonslayer@lemm.ee 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Why so? I've only heard good-ish things about him

[–] Squizzy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Killer Mike is all talk, he makes protest music and then rallies against protests when they erupt in his community. He and Chapelle hang out and talk civil rights and black history but what they actually champion is money. Landlord Mike, bootlicker Dave.

Its a damn shame that his words dont align with his actions, I feel he could have led a movement if he wasnt looking in another direction. EP is cool though.
