Killer Mike & EL-P release another single off their upcoming project R.A.P. Music , titled "Don't Die". Album drops May 15th.
On "Dont Die" Killer Mike hurts the people he wants to hurt (dirty cops and rappers aspiring to the Forbes list) with his singularly impassioned, indignant delivery, something he does very well. He dedicates the ... read more
More music from the El-P and Killer Mike production materialize today by way of heavy hitter, "Don't Die". It looks like Mike will continue to push social commentary throughout the forthcoming R.A.P. Music , as he takes shot at corrupt cops and more on the latest leak. And El-P doesn't leave any room for interpretation, as he makes it pretty clear with this beat that he hates the police as much as the next guy. R.A.P. Music is due out May 15 via Williams Street Records.
Atlanta rap veteran Killer Mike releases his sixth album, the El P-produced R.A.P. Music , on May 15th via Williams Street.

While we were at South by Southwest, the album track "Untitled" hit the web. If you missed that one, stream it at SoundCloud .

Thanks to our busy time at SXSW , we were a bit slow on posting our mixtape this month. So, instead of the usual two-installment approach, today we deliver the whole thing. This should be more than enough music to distract you from your actual work on this Friday afternoon. 1. Chromatics - "Kill for Love" 2. El-P - "The Full Retard" [...]
HBO's medieval drama Game Of Thrones premieres April 1, and this season's plot involves five different claims to the throne and these respective factions' ongoing clobbering of one another (#TeamRobb). But, yet another mantle is up for grabs, one that involves absolutely nobody getting their head cut off; the claim to "your album of the summer," a competition that includes many of the 25 albums in our list. While bands like Beach House and Bear In Heaven have already earned their inclusion, many details are just beginning to emerge about many of the [...]

This new track from the forthcoming Killer Mike and El-P collaboration is all about the latter’s impressive production and the former's strong personality. The beat has a heavy, heavy groove. The kind that bumps out of sound system-clad cars that drive down neighborhood streets at 10 miles per hour. The groove is incredible thanks to some humming synthesizers and variety of percussion, creating production that grabs hold of attention spans and never lets go. However, Killer Mike does not let the production overpower him. He rides the beat well while making many references to mythology and religion. The quality [...]

This blog very rarely covers hip-hop. I'm not sure why. I mean it does , but very rarely. It's gotta be something outrageously killer to grab my attention. And well here it is. Of course it's well known that hip-hop is the only suitable music to drive to. And it's the weekend. The beat here is highly unusual and the track is rhythmically dense, tackling all that's political and religious. On May 15th, Atlanta rapper Killer Mike (above, looking deadly) will be releasing R.A.P. Music. (abbreviating "Rebellious African People's Music.") [...]
Remember Killer Mike? Mr 'A.D.I.D.A.S' ? Sure you do. Well, Mike's back with a new album, R.A.P. Music (the R.A.P. stands for Rebellious African People's), which will be produced entirely by El-P. Hang on a minute... El-P? Former Def Jux and Company Flow main man El-P? Well, yes, as it turns out, it's the one and the same. I've not followed Mike's career closely to be fair, but on the surface, this seems like a slightly odd pairing to me. The proof is in [...]

What happens when you combine Outkast Collaborator/Dungeon Family member, Killer Mike aka Mike Bigga with one of the best indie producer/rappers to do it today, Definitive Jux/Company Flow's El-P aka El Producto? You get R.A.P. Music . We got our first taste of the epic album last month with the hard hitting single " Big Beast " featuring T.I., Bun B and Trouble and now you can hear the 2nd leak "Untitled" below which premiered earlier today on satellite-radio channel Shade 45's Sway on the Morning. Mike's R.A.P. Music is set to drop [...]
Killer Mike took to Sway In The Morning on Shade 45 to liberate a new El-P collaborative track "Untitled" this morning. Along with the single, Killer Mike spoke with Sway about how personal the new record was, which actually appeared as a snippet back in 2010. Oh, and the El-P beat is damn near flawless. R.A.P. Music is due out May 15. Head over to Rap Rader to give the single a spin.
Before premiering it on Sway in the Morning today, Killer Mike called "Untitled," a song about fearing for one’s legacy in the face of death, "one of the most personal records on a personal album." ... read more
