"i'm not aware of his work.. but i just don't get the point of his spoken words on that track.. they are just odd... and not really in a good way for me"



Yeah his previous work shouldn't affect the opinion you have of his work on this (though you SHOULD familiarize yourself with some of his past work, because it rules). But yearh I agree, his spoken word stuff on that track is nothing special. The ridiculously cool percussion on Twin Hype Back makes it infallible to me though, I mean damn that shit is cool.

this album would be better if DJ Holiday was on it, yelling "O ITS HOLIDAY SEASON" on every track.

Saw Killer Mike's and El-P's concerts at Roskilde a few days ago. They joined each other on stage and performed some of the tracks from Run the Jewels, saying it was the first time they were performed at a concert.

"Saw Killer Mike's and El-P's concerts at Roskilde a few days ago."



oh my god AWESOME!



I went to Roskilde last year (alone, easily meeting many new friends though) and it was easily one of the most magical weeks of my life. I didn't know they played this year, but it broke my heart to know that I was not there. I'll be back one year!!



ps purchased my ticket for their show in Vancouver in a couple weeks. I am SO beyond stoked, good lord.

"Great album.

Ok that's it why the fuck does everyone have to compare this to Yeezus



Is it just because it's cool to hate Yeezus so throwing down a subtle flame is cool

Na it's cos Yeezus is suddenly making the stuff that El-P's been doing for 15 years popular, and this is way better (in a lot of people's opinion). So people are annoyed Kanye's getting all the 'innovator' credit.

Kanye has repeatedly stated his influences for the album.



And why do people have to be so butt-hurt about it anyway.



Nah Yeezy it's been done man, we been listening to this style for years, we're cool as fuck.



If anything, if you're so concerned about El-P's popularity then you should be happy Kanye made a more industrial/techno album because it introduces a wider audience to the style and potentially garners their interest in other artists in the genre.



Then people might discover his influence and be like o cool these bros been doing they thang for awhile RESPEK
