Killer Mike and Jamie dropped reality nuggets tonite on the Combat Jack TV Show. They are the 2013 Stroker and Hoop, Starsky and Hutch, 10Speed and Brownshoe and EPMD 3000.
I forgot hot much I enjoyed El-P’s ‘Cure 4 Cancer’ and Killer Mike’s R.A.P. Music albums last year. Production and lyrical content for these two joints is unmatched. In the meantime and in between time you can watch Killer Mike’s spot on Letterman last nite.
Killer Mike in Brooklyn at Public Assembly TONITE!
I OWE El-P the dP treatment for ‘Drones Over Brooklyn’.
Good look, DP. El-P is one of the very few hip-hop producers I know of who make beats/songs as is each is a composition, in the best sense. To the extent it would defy expectations, I’d love to hear, say, Heltah Skeltah over some El-P sometime…
Also, on the flipside of “Drones Over Brooklyn,” do you know El-P’s jazz + beats & effects album from 2004, “High Water”?
Try “Sunrise Over Brooklyn” for starters, and think of, say, some of those early Alice Coltrane sides–

p/s– I should add that El-P’s production is one of the directions I always hoped the legacy of the Bomb Squad would develop in… Burn Hollywood burn!!
killer mike is one of my favorite rappers because he does what he wants. have yet to sell his soul to get money wish he would get more success. yet he doesn’t let that stop him from doing his music
Where the eFF is this Combat Jack TV show tho?
