El-P and Killer Mike are "Run The Jewels"

Thom Yorke · 06-27-2013, 11:05 AM

It was alright on first listen. Everything sounded solid but nothing really stood out to me. I'm gonna have to listen to it a few more times. Run the Jewels seemed like the best track on first listen.

The latter half of the album is definitely the stronger. As usual from these two it's a solid release, nothing particularly amazing but pretty good nonetheless.

A couple songs on here reminded me a lot of beats from C4C.

No Way Down (think its called that) is basically Stay Down v.2.

"No Come Down" actually didn't remind me of Stay Down. What about it do you find similar?

The shame you are now feeling at not noticing it at first will pass.

I thought this was pretty great. I don't think this was the greatest thing both Mike or El-P have made to date, but I still enjoyed the album as a whole.

yeah, I listened to both of them and I'm not getting the vibe either. Maybe it's going over my head.

The lyrics/rhyme sceme is intentionally similar. And the beat has a similar rhythm, just not sound.
