RTJ are stupid good. Their albums keep getting better and better, el-p is CRUSHING production, and they're both savage on the mic. Do yourself a personal favour and go listen to their four albums.
@lizzy rosario walking in the snow, firing squad, really? Maybe, I'd have to go back and like listen for it, it wasn't apparent to me on my listens so far, but now I'm excited to go see if I see the same.
Zack De La Rocha was the last verse, he is the lead singer of Rage Against the Machine. His verse is like 3 different history lessons. When he said " off shore out of port au prince, Louverture left his finger prints" Toussaint L'ouverture led the Haitian revolution in 1790. The enslaved people rose up and overthrew their French oppressors and took control of the island. Invoking this name is a call to action for us to do the same to the capitalist system that keep us all slaves to money. EL-P was referring to Eric Garner who was murdered in a chokehold by the NYPD in 2014 for selling cigarettes to afford to feed his kids... but hey, its JU$T money.
Thanks for catching the Haiti history lesson. Zack often sounds so good, but I love him for teaching me about shit that he raps about. I would have never known about Fred Hampton w/o Zack.
@@danh.5998 you mean after all the years of imperialists refusing to trade with Haiti for daring to incite slave rebellion. And then the years of capitalism. Yeah as usual corporate hegemony forcing it’s hand on nations that dare rebel. Capitalism isn’t even what Adam Smith was calling for, free markets are socialist. Capitalism is statist.
X Nah, El can do what other can't, program synths and create original sounds, madlib and alchemist use predominantly samples and don't create (many) original sounds. Also Alfredo had recycled samples, one already been used by RJD2. Not as original.
El-P's beats and production are just fucking gold. I've been bumpin El and DefJux since Fantastic Damage, and in my mind El's like Midas. Everything he touches is gold. Once he caught Mike's ear it was game over. Mike would NOT let it go, he KNEW they had to work together more, and the rest is history in the making.
Run the jewels are EVERYTHING💚💚💚💚💚. Every album they put out gets better and better. 💚💚💚💚. And Zack de la Rocha.... underrated. 💚💚💚💚I love music with substance💚💚💚

Bro just listened to your stuff on Spotify. My favorite tracks so far are Time, 9/11 and duality 🔥 study vibes and chill vibes all the way. Keep it up man!
I’m just now going through your reacts and it’s funny as fuck hearing you talk about the actual tracks like El-P didn’t do them almost exclusively himself. Worlds greatest producer
Maaaaaannn..... if you think "Killer" Mike Render is political...... you've got a whole world of exploration w/ Zach. From RatM to One Lion, to his partnership w/ KRS-ONE, to the guys in RtJ considering him the unofficial third member.... Mr. de la Rocha is political, eloquent, and full of piss and vinegar. Enjoy running the rabbit hole.
@aaron turnupseed "In 2016, the Obama administration announced Tubman would replace President Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill. It was a fitting switch: a genuine African American hero, nicknamed “Moses” during her lifetime, replacing the slave-owning architect of the Indian Removal Act. Under the original timeline, the Tubman $20 bill redesign was to be unveiled in 2020 - to coincide with the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment giving women the right to vote - and would go into circulation later in the decade. Among critics of the Tubman plan was then-presidential candidate Trump, who derided it as “pure political correctness.” So there was naturally some suspicion when Mnuchin announced last year that the design wouldn’t be finalized until 2026, putting it well off Trump’s plate even if he wins reelection."
Soooo Tubman on the 20 was announced in the early half of 2016 (and was expected to be in effect by 2020). Then right at the end of 2016... certain people were elected in to office, and by early 2017 they announced they were "postponing" it, because they decided it wasn't important enough to them. Now they're out of office and the pendulum has swung back the other direction, so it's on the to-do list again.
Pharrell isn’t the producer, El-P is. They said P told them if they needed anything call. They couldn’t think of a hook, they called him, and he dug into it hard! He wrote the hook 100%
"And I told you once before that you should kill your masters, now that's the line that's probably gonna get my ass an assassin." Fuuuuuck. Killer Mike back again with straight facts.

Shit, even Meow the Jewels was sick with production for a charity gimmick album. XD
@lizzy rosario definitely don't agree with you on that.

A letter to the shareholders
lizzy rosario EL-Ps last verse on Firing Squad was amazing bro
Zach is the vocalist in Rage Against The Machine.
He should lowkey do a few features
@@Isaacserrano_19 that's about all he's done since rage called it quits, mostly with RTJ and DJ Shadow. I'm hoping for another RATM album soon though
@@azithoth6860 there's also One day as Lion and his hardcore punk band Inside out.
@@maddbunny Inside Out was before RATM.

Gotta get into that Run the Jewels albums man... You won't be disappointed! Every track, every album - FIRE!
Can 100% second this
Will 100% third this
Truth.
This man knows!
I'll fifth the fuck out that, killer Mike and el-p. That combination ain't healthy 🤜🏻👈🏿
never would have thought Pharrell Williams and Zach de la Rocha
Aint that the truth
And it's so good !!
RTJ has done a couple of tracks with Zack. But bringing in Pharrell on this just took it to a different level...
El-P is probably the best producer in hip-hop at the moment
For 2020 i have The Alchemist
@@stijn8588 Both are insane but yea, I think I like Alfrdo more than RTJ4. Both are so underrated
@@eks_0 for sure

El-p for the win .
Zack is the lead singer of rage against the machine just in case you didn't realize

React to "Run the jewels - Close your eyes and count to f*ck"
"Got a Vonnegut punch for your Atlas Shrugged" daaamn el-p
Underrated line
Finally! Thank you. The kill your masters line was referencing the literal hidden track on RTJ3 called kill your masters
I love how you going from “Did he just say look at all those slave masters...” to absolutely vibing.
It's that Pharrell vibe
Zach killed his verse in this! RATM!
"I gotta Vonnegut punch for your Atlas Shrugged ". This is entirely My Shit.
React to RTJ- Walking in the Snow....
This!
I mean I'd be happy if he did the whole album.
Yess 🙌🏽🙌🏽
YES! Finally! Sorry to have been badgering you on Twitter lol!
Please do "Walking in the Snow" if you think THIS says a lot? Wait till you hear that!
You know 2020 is a madness when Layedbak actually gets on some Run the Jewels! Nobody Speak should go next 👍
@Gizzy - god that’s an amazing track. Guess I know what I’m listening to the rest of the day.
@@cincylaw14 it's my get up and do shit track 👍
YESSS RTJ IS SO UNDERRATED THANK YOU LAYEDBAK 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Also this album was written last year before everything popped off which makes some of the bars on this album hit even harder.
More RTJ please, they're one of the best Duo's ever.
Walking In The Snow next bro. My favorite song on RTJ4.
Welcome to the movement LayedBak! RTJ is the truth!
Ay that shirt is fire tho 🔥🔥
Do “ooh la la” next!!!!
@Dawns Legend - damn that song is 🔥
He has
Krs-1, the last emperor and Zack de la rocha- c,i,a
One of Zack's best verses ever. Live this track
Zack de la Rocha is the singer from Rage against the machine
2:03 - nice one, his duo with Chad Hugo is actually called The Neptunes👌
Run the jewels are EVERYTHING💚💚💚💚💚. Every album they put out gets better and better. 💚💚💚💚. And Zack de la Rocha.... underrated. 💚💚💚💚I love music with substance💚💚💚
Because of course as soon as it involves Zack De La Rocha it becomes a protest song. Love it

You've gotta watch the official video for this too... it's an absolute work of art. Literally and figuratively.
Firesquad let’s go!! Love RTJ
Wait. Zach de la Rocha? I never heard this before. BANGERRRR
I dont think they mean literal slave owners posing on dollars (but maybe?) I think they mean that we are all slaves to money.
Bro just listened to your stuff on Spotify. My favorite tracks so far are Time, 9/11 and duality 🔥 study vibes and chill vibes all the way. Keep it up man!
Just found your videos and you do some of the best on youtube tbh. Like the audio quality is so crisp and your takes are honest.
Walking in the Snow is a must listen by RTJ. Both El-P and Killer Mike's verses are insanely good.
Pharrell didn’t make the beat, el-p did!
It's funny how much it sounds like a Pharrell beat though. Even has his four count intro.
El-P is awesome lmao
I used to be a fan
Now I'm a air-conditioner
I like this

@@jav2427 thanks :)
You’re great at copying
Zack de la Rocha is the lead singer of Rage Against the machine
Update: Tubman being expedited to replace Jackson on the $20 now
This song will live on for many years man
You GOTTA do the rest of the album. Bangers back to back!
Love the shirt I’m literally watching the movie right now
I don't know why more people don't listen to them.
You honestly should do this whole album!
definitely need to do more run the jewels
"kill your masters" goes so crazy hard.
and it's true
if you have a "master"
entire album aged pretty well :)
Nice I've been waiting for you to hear this! I've been rocking it since it came out. PASSSSSSSS! 👉🏽🤛🏼🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
So sickkkkkkkk! 🔥❤️💯
All live brothaaaaa keep it goinnnnn ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Facts about that Harrier Tubman $20 update though. Where is that at?
I’m just now going through your reacts and it’s funny as fuck hearing you talk about the actual tracks like El-P didn’t do them almost exclusively himself. Worlds greatest producer
Bro, Zach was the lead singer of Rage Against The Machine, come on.
Greetings from Russia:)
Walking in the snow as well. This album is insanely good
Can you please do Nobody Speak or Out Of Sight by Run The Jewels. Please and thank you! Loving these videos lol
Glad you liked RTJ. They will never disappoint
Maaaaaannn..... if you think "Killer" Mike Render is political...... you've got a whole world of exploration w/ Zach.

I’ve been a subscriber for about a year and I know if you u did a couple more RTJ like oh lala you’d love it or blockbuster night 2
You will recognize Zack’s voice from rage against the machine
Unfortunately Trump quietly delayed the Tubman $20 and then cancelled it

@aaron turnupseed he's a huge fan of Andrew Jackson (who would be replaced on the 20).. of course he directed his team to try and kill it
Thank you! No one has reacted to RTJ4!
yo he's finally doing RTJ
Soooo Tubman on the 20 was announced in the early half of 2016 (and was expected to be in effect by 2020).
Then right at the end of 2016... certain people were elected in to office, and by early 2017 they announced they were "postponing" it, because they decided it wasn't important enough to them.

LaydBak be grooving
Really wanted to see the Stormzy - Superheroes reaction. TH-cam really be hating
You've got to react to Walking in the Snow by RTJ! Killer Mike has one of the strongest verses I've ever heard on that track
RTJ4 extremely underrated
Harriot Tubman is temporary delayed cause of a spike in counterfeit money. It is still suppose to come in the future.
Nobody puts more real shit into their work than RTJ Check out the rest of the RTJ3 album
Where did you get the shirt?
Please react to Yankee and the brave (episode 4) from Run The Jewels!!
Great review Brother
Walking in the snow 👉🏽🤛🏼🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
PASS. especially w ZACK!!! Nice to see him on this track. Definitely a voice we need around.
El-P is the most consistently underrated rapper/producer in hip hop. His beats are so dirty a Swifer wouldn't clean them.
There is a difference when an artist actually has something to say.
Pharrell isn’t the producer, El-P is. They said P told them if they needed anything call. They couldn’t think of a hook, they called him, and he dug into it hard! He wrote the hook 100%
FINALLY GOT THIS REACTION RTJ THE GOATS
I was looking for a reaction to Early and also Jeopardy from Run the Jewels 2. But I’ll settle for this. 😆
like before starting video 😉😉❤
“... and then he stop at Pluto” lmao
React to Walking in the snow just for killer likes lyrics alone!
You need to get in RTJ's Close Your Eyes and Count to Fuck, also got Zack de la Rocha in it.
"And I told you once before that you should kill your masters, now that's the line that's probably gonna get my ass an assassin." Fuuuuuck. Killer Mike back again with straight facts.
El-p is the producer, Pharrell only did the hook and the short verse. El-p has been doing the futuristic style since the mid 90s.
Sad this dude doesn't know Rage Against The Machine sad,sad,sad
@@jimmiesmith8669 well, to be fair, that was over 30 yrs ago. We're just getting old lol.
Yo layedbak you gotta check out more of these guys...
Ayy where is the huge bong? Did youtube threaten your paycheck lmao
This was the track to beat in 2020.
Pharrell didn’t make the beat, El-p did!
And that Atlas Shrugged just thrown in there ^_^
Walking in the snow goes hard
Not sure if you knew, but, Zach De La Rocha is the lead singer of Rage Against the Machine.
So when’s the Dictator remix by JDHunter feat McG reaction happening?
We need "Out of Sight" trash or pass
That Mystery Machine shirt tho 🖤🖤
