El-P and Killer Mike first began work together on Mike's R.A.P. Music solo record, but the chemistry between the two emcees was so natural, they decided they needed to team up as a rap duo. While it seemed like a one-off at first, Run The Jewels was such a success that they're putting out another project before focusing on solo material. Today we've been given the second single from their upcoming album, Run The Jewels 2.
With "Oh My Darling Don't Cry", Mike and El pass the mic on the stuttering industrial beat, trading often hilarious one-liners and ruthless flows. Look out for the full project (for free!) October 27th.
Quotable Lyrics:
My business card says 'you're in luck'
I do do two things, I rap and fuck
I fuck and rap, I tote the strap
I smoke the kush, I beat the puss
I've read the books, did the math
Don't need a preacher preachin' on my behalf
Oh My Darling Don't Cry
