Run the Jewels 2 has topped every magazine list i've seen so far. it is a cool album.. however the praise it gets is shocking to me.

also, i can't see what's so good about that Zach De La Rocha verse. people act like that shit was so hot.. i didn't even know he was held in such high regard as a rapper. i've listened to it several times just to see what the fuss is all about, "i'm miles ahead of you, you can sip my bitches brew" is a nice line, but come on..

Pitchfork described El-P rapping about wanting his wife to wear a thong as an act against misogyny. they even compared the album's production with FUCKING SONIC YOUTH. damn, are they for real??

i get why people like this album, just can't help but feel like there's one big circle jerk going on.

On the whole, RTJ2 is El-P’s most accessible and rangy production to date and he’s hit a stride that recalls Sonic Youth in 1987 or Animal Collective in 2004, the point where a celebrated noise terrorist starts to embrace and challenge their audience rather than simply testing their patience.
lol. he probably thought this was such a clever thing to claim.

fucking clown. you guys were on point when you called Pitchfork "satire and they don't even know it".

Pusha T Promises 'Amazing' New Album in Spring 2015
http://www.rollingstone.com/music/ne...-2015-20141222
Quote:
Some people are getting ready to take the rest of the year off – but not Pusha T, who's hard at work on his second solo album, King Push, the follow-up to 2013's My Name Is My Name. "Aw, man, I'm working on it feverishly," says the Virginia MC. "It’s amazing. I feel like the sound will be second to none. And of course you already know the raps will be smacking people all left and right. I’ve been working on it constantly."

Pusha says he plans to release the album in spring 2015. In the meantime, fans can get an idea of where he's headed from his killer new Kanye West-produced single "Lunch Money," which just got a video. "I dropped 'Lunch Money' to show how far out me and 'Ye are going to go, just sonically," he says. "Now, I feel like people don’t know where the hell I’m going to go on the next record. And that’s where I want them to be."

He laughs, then adds: "'Unorthodox' has become synonymous with Pusha T’s music, back to records like 'Grindin'.' Everybody’s gonna be really locked in and shocked to see how I’ve raised the level of musicality from My Name Is My Name to King Push.

9 tracks and it comes w/ the movie on DVD. A nice set.

louder- you're right. Zach De La Rocha receiving praise as an emcee in a true hip-hop context is just way too hard to swallow. Everyone pretty much gets the fact that RATM was goddamn fraudulent at this point... shameless "Activist" role-players, raging against the exact machine that spit their records out.

I can't believe that Rocha moment on Close Your Eyes... is getting attention of any kind, or being hyped as anything *other than* the only downright bullshit moment on that kickass album. Zach De La Rocha is a joke. Yeah, this verse may be the best thing he's ever done... and RTJ2 is certainly the best project he's ever been involved with. But COME THE FUCK ON!!!

I haven't really heard anything about Rocha's contribution, so I'm just taking your word for it. It seems like the kind of thing that would happen in this braindead pop culture era.... Killer Mike and El-P create a universally revered masterpiece, and Zach De La Motherfucking Rocha is the one swimming in "OMGs" ... fucking christ.

It is a great album though. I prefer it even to Shabazz Palaces' Lese Majesty. It's more interesting. That's sayin' some shit.

I don't really get why the De La Rocha verse is getting much talk, it's nothing amazing. But it's nothing awful either.

I like the "run the jewels fast/fuck the slow-mo" lines that get looped.

louder 12.28.2014 12:08 PM
looks like i'm starting to give up to the hype and really embrace this album.

i've come to realize it's truly their victory lap after dropping consistent albums year after year (R.A.P. Music, Cancer 4 Cure, the first Run the Jewels album).. damn.
