Well, this morning just got significantly more awesome. " Big Beast ," the ridiculously badass all-star first single from Killer Mike's excellent El-P-produced new album R.A.P. Music , has a nine-minute new video, and holy shit is it ever awesome. The clip features a Steven Seagal-style foiled convenience-store robbery, an entrail feast, an old-school car chase, Troma-esque gore, a knife murder, an axe murder, corpsepainted strippers, a prominent guest star in a Reagan mask, and three of the South's greatest rappers looking ridiculously cool. You really need to take the time to watch it, even [...]

The line "HARDCORE G SHIT" is how Killer Mike opens his new album with El-P, R.A.P. Music . As such, it's no surprise that the video for opening track "Big Beast" is filled with, well, hardcore G shit. With some help from guests T.I. and Bun B, Mike takes part in a gully-ass short film featuring, at one point, some creepily face-painted topless females. So, yes, this is NSFW, but you're going to want to find some time to properly check it out. It's below.
Killer Mike and El-P really are an unstoppable force. Not only do they have the best bromance ever, but "R.A.P. Music" combines two of my favourite things; Atlanta hip hop and El-P’s magnificent beats. Christmas has come early and in the form of a political gangster rap album, folks. As disappointing as I am by my first impiressions of "Cancer For Cure ", El-P will always, always, pull through on the production. And that is exactly the case on [...]

Something with El-P on production? Yes, I am down. Killer Mike, Bun B, T.I. & amp; Trouble, have gotten together with one of my favorite producers/rapper of the underground hip-hop scene ( El-P ) to create some music for the masses. It is truly an interesting day when mainstream artists can collaborate with an underground king-pin such as El-p. This has been done by artists before, but not to this extent in this music setting. I am a fan of heavy beats, catchy samples, and nice word flow, and this song has it all, minus the fluff and hype. [...]

This week, Killer Mike released “Big Beast” a “Public Enemy No. 1” recalling stomper featuring Bun B, T.I. and Trouble. The song is the first single from Mike’s upcoming full-length collaboration with Def Jux production impresario El-P, R.A.P. Music (Rebellious African People’s Music) . The uncontrollable energy of El-P’s production ( created sample free ) forces the emcees to rise to the occasion. The three vets trade stellar verses and Trouble handles the hook. T.I. is particularly effective with his focused, but subdued spitfire. He lets the beat do the attention-grabbing and effortlessly spewing couplets [...]
MP3 A track from the forthcoming Killer Mike, EL-P collaboration, R.A.P. Music, which will be out via Williams Street Records May 15th. Though rapping about drugs, violence, and strippers has become an undeniable rap cliche, Mike's lyrics and veteran status serve as a reminder of how gritty this stuff used to be. Of course, none of this magic could happen if it weren't for EL-P's production. The heavy, hard-nosed beat sounds ready to punch a hole in any stereo system looking to blast it. The relentless hi-hats in the beat [...]

Nearly a decade deep in the rap game, Mike has released five critically hailed records and won a Grammy for best Rap Collaboration with Outkast for the song “The Whole World.” But, in no uncertain terms, Mike will tell you that R.A.P. Music is his finest accomplishment. He’ll even call it a “classic.” Of course, every rapper calls every one of their albums a classic. The only difference is that Mike’s right. iTunes: Big Beast (feat. Bun B, T.I. & Trouble) - Single - Killer Mike

We got the best news to kick off this post-Grammy, post-Whitney week: Killer Mike (free from the unfortunate 'Mike Bigga' nom de plume) is releasing a full project with El-P on the boards to be R.A.P. Music (Rebellious African People’s Music). This first offering from the album features guests Bun B, T.I. and Trouble over El-P's Public Enemy flip (which Puffy most epic-ly sampled ). Killer Mike - Big Beast ft. Bun B, T.I. & Trouble That's that shit right there. [ via ]

Listen to opening track "Big Beast (ft. Bun B, T.I., and Trouble)".
For a long time now, we've heard rumblings about a new collaborative album from badass Atlanta rap snarler Killer Mike and New York skronk-rap king El-P. This morning, we get confirmation that it exists. El produced all of the new joint R.A.P. Music . (That title stands for Rebellious African People's Music . Sure, fine.) Below, we've got the first track we've heard from that album, and it's a total monster. "Big Beast" features El turning a sample of Public Enemy's "Public Enemy No. 13 into a different sort of thunderous blare, and it also features [...]
