El-P and Killer Mike have kept fans availed on progress of the copious weed consumption that has accompanied the making of Run The Jewels 3. This morning, they released the first song off the highly anticipated album: "Talk To Me."
"Talk To Me" doubles as the newest installment of Adult Swim's 2016 singles series. From the producer's chair, El-P conjures up a storm of hawkish guitar and baritone sax (!) that continues in his style of energetic, abrasive beats. "Now pardon me while i finish mixing this album," he wrote in Twitter after Adult Swim released the song.
Brace yourselves... RTJ3 is coming.
Quotable Lyrics
We return from the depths of the badland
With a gun and a knife in our waistband
Went to war with the devil and shaytan
He wore a bad toupee and a spray tan
So high now, hoping that I land
On a Thai stick moving through Thailand
On the radio heard a plane hijack
Government be in debt while they cook crack
-Killer Mike
