How do people stomach this? How do 2 guys who made pretty good music for entire careers come together and make le epic tunes? Is it age? Success?
You must develop a tolerance for true coworker music
Tbh I don’t hear a ton of difference between Run The Jewels and any of the El-P albums after Fantastic Damage, so I’d say blame him

I cant believe the dude who made funcrusher and cold vein turned into making rap made exclusively to be put in commercials

I'll Sleep When You're Dead is good

That’s pretty true I guess
the first 2 are good
the rest im good
I can see why you’d think that but I disagree

ISWYD sounds nothing like C4C and RTJ.

i dont listen to the 2 anymore but it was def of "the time" and the era of the underground within the underground "hiphop culture war" with itself
i do think a lot of the beats are still unique and hard tho
the first 2 are good
the rest im good
Funny enough I think they got better with each release but I can definitely see the argument either way as well a the argument OP is making. It's def got reddit-tier dad rap written all over it. El's production is still insane imo
RTJ3 had some stuff I really liked on it prob my favorite of them but 4 was when I officially grew off them
If they knew what was good they would leave well enough alone
Nah their s*** was good don’t be a hater for no rzn
i think the biggest issue with rtj is that it overstayed it welcome and they kinda lost the plot with the motives and "point" at least audience wise
i think after the two album n the ep was all there is then it would be looked at more favorably in retrospect
2 is considered the best and the only one i hear in great regard still to this day

eh i think they were kinda aimless after 2 and lost a lot of the "edge" of the sound design in 1 n 2 n after 2 they became "reddit-core" (i think meow the jewles legit did this when it was originally a joke and a audience support goal but brought in the "lol randfom funny" crowd)
i will always respect them tho & they were impactful and popular in the underground world with 1 n 2 so i always will always admire too what it meant back then

Yup the first 2 definitely were more impactful overall but 3/4 were my personal favs. They're all pretty similar overall though. I don't think there was ever an "edge" to lose. El-P had shifted his production technique after 2007 to more 'epic', bass heavy production. Cold Vein and FanDam his best work on the boards
