RTJ will ALWAYS have it. I have never understood how they are underrated af and not in enough conversations. Blows my mind. Killer Mike is obviously a legend. El-P just on his own is DISRESPECTFULLY slept on. Them together is incredible. You should check out their collabs with the lead singer from Rage Against the Machine: JU$T or Close Your Eyes (And Count to fuck) And definitely do more RTJ 🔥🔥🖤
First time I saw Run The Jewels live, they had jut dropped RTJ1, Almost everybody I was talking to before show was there for El-P. Including me. They opened up for Wu Tang. Nobody really knew them as group. Boy they fucking KILLED it! And the quality of their sound honestly was just Levels above Wu-Tang's. Guessing El-p's sound engineering school had something to do with that.
I’m not sure if this is a common experience with RTJ fans, but as someone who’s not so experienced in his solo work, EL-P has slowly become my favorite rapper out of the two of them the more I listen
Oh man, El has always been the one. RTJ I think over the progression of each record, it seems like he's started to curate his lyrics for a larger audience. He's always been a phenomenal writer, and is shows in his earlier work. I'm saddened that the masses don't focus on the true lyricists of our generation.
Murs was on w Talib recently and they were talking about how influential El P is/was to white rappers. He doesn't get the credit that he DEFINITELY deserves
Agreed, I think he has much more of an influence on the genre than Aesop even though they are almost doing parallel things, worked together, with same artists, etc. and I think Aesop is the GOAT...
I really enjoy y'alls energy. A lot of hip-hop reactors out there showing no emotion and staring at the screen like they're watching a work orientation video. Also, you didn't pause a dozen times for a 3½ minute song. Subbed. I hope you do more RTJ in the future, I would recommend something from RTJ2, but literally all four of their albums are bangers, as well as their solo projects.
Run The Jewels "Ooh LA LA" feat. Greg Nice & DJ Premier, DJ Shadow - Nobody Speak feat. Run The Jewels and Run The Jewels - Oh My Darling (Don't Cry). Top, top videos and tunes.
These guys speak some insane truths about the corporate world, life, troubles. Bro I promise you guys the lyrical content in Walking in the snow - by RTJ off run the jewels 4 album will blow your mind
Definitely check more of RTJ they have 4 albums together (Killer Mike & El-P), Killer Mike also has an album out soon. Check out anything by them every song is as good as the next. Call Ticketron and Out of Sight are 2 recommendations
i shoulda know. all i had to do was scroll the playlist a bit more to find RTJ if yheres one for Killer Mike. not just Outkast, also Purole Ribbon All Stars
El-P is the best producer in hip hop. He's so unique, his beats don't sound like anyone else, but are reminiscent of 90s boom bat. Plus, he's an incredible MC, his bars are as good as Killer Mike's, and that's saying a lot. I love hearing these two go back & forth, there's not enough of that in hip hop these days. Heavily inspired by Run-DMC, both in how they rap together and in style. Can't wait until they drop some new shit, RTJ4 feels like forever ago.
What do you mean "still" got it? This single was released in 2016. SMH at reactors who don't bother to find out the most basic information about what they're reacting to.
Not only is El-P rapping he also is the producer on all of their albums
Best dude in the game.
he's also nyc legend.... funcrusher anyone? def jux anyone?

Hope to dive more into their stuff soon!!
I couldn't agree more
EL-P is slept on? he was the darling of the underground in late 90s
Disrespectfully slept on is right
@@planetdustbowl4825 yeah he is criminally underrated
4:22 I love how the "blind" guy checks the paper what sign he should throw.
Subbed for RTJ! Thanks for having them on your channel! It’s unreal how underrated these guys are!!! All 4 RTJ albums are 🔥🔥🔥 - literally every song.
Welcome to the Buzz Fam ✌️🍻
El-P produced this as well. IMO is one of the most important producers in the game. That Grimey NY sound
Keep it up kings. Run the jewels Has all the bangers.
“Do you see what they’re doing there? They’re rapping” is the best sound bite.

Been on El-P since Rawkus and through the Def. Jux era....Deep Space 9mm might have my absolute favorite verses in all of hip-hop

RTJ is such a breath of fresh air. Gotta give props to A Aron!
So how long before they start doing the rtj hand sign? :D

EL-P - was in Company Flow
Killer Mike - was in Dungeon Family
Both were legends until RTJ
The Key and Peele reference is legendary lmaoooo
how has this been suggested before 'blockbuster night pt.1' - 'run the jewels' - or especially 'nobody speak' their top 3 imo
Run The Jewels "Ooh LA LA" feat. Greg Nice & DJ Premier, DJ Shadow - Nobody Speak feat. Run The Jewels and Run The Jewels - Oh My Darling (Don't Cry). Top, top videos and tunes.
Love Run the Jewels 👍
AAAHHHHHHHHH ONE OF THE GREATEST SONGS IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!
I LOVE THIS 😍
Have to do “Christmas fucking miracle”! Or “ooh La La” is a good newer one too
Elp is the white guy he does the beats and killer Mike is the black guy who is one of the best of all time!
RTJ are dope as hell - they were going to be my next requests!
Can’t wait to see them 7/18 in Minnesota if they can make it with their touring schedule. Loved writing with them!
You guys have dozens more to react to 4 albums of bangers. Plus El P has insane futuristic dystopian sounding beats his solo work is insane
blockbuster night... a tune!!!
These guys speak some insane truths about the corporate world, life, troubles. Bro I promise you guys the lyrical content in Walking in the snow - by RTJ off run the jewels 4 album will blow your mind

Gotta get back to RTJ

You guys should do Aesop and EL-P Gun For the Whole Family. SOOO FIRE.
El-P is a top20 producer and when it comes to rapping & producing combined I think you can name him with RZA and Kanye... I'm not joking.
Top 5 rapper/producer combo in my opinion.
Plus some run the jewels and DJ shadow
You want to hear the best RTJ tracks? Just pick literally any one they are all dope!
killer Mike just dropped AOTY!!!
As we say here in Blighty....Top Drawer. How they're not massive is confusing the f**k outta me. They are awesome
Plus some Zack de La Rocha
👀🎉😁😆💯🔥🔥
It's already passed 1:35
I got a unicorns horn for a 🐔
Y’all need to check out Prof
We got a whole playlist and a vlog of the show we went to ✌️🍻
YEEEAHHH RTJ
Bro! No reactors are out here doing RTJ! I’m here for it! 👊👈
I'm sure it will pass the Buzz worthy fam
I'm disappointed I'm UK and u ain't done akala daily duppy....wtf come on guys stop lacking😂
👀 coming soon ✌️🍻
I don't get these bars you do 6:25
....only Frankensteins lab can react without stoping and talking.
This is a dope track and it’s probably one of my least favorites from them. Lol that might be an unpopular opinion
Nah they’re just the kind of artists where their worst shit is better than so many others best shit lol
You're it's not one of their best tracks. Better than a lot of what's out there but not their best work.
To say “Killer Mike still has it” is to imply that Killer Mike at some point lost it. Killer Mike never lost it.
RTJ
What do you mean "still" got it? This single was released in 2016. SMH at reactors who don't bother to find out the most basic information about what they're reacting to.
Killer Mike is so much better than El-P lol.
