like these guys, like their music, happy for their success, sick of hearing about 'em :)

i think meow the jewels might actually be their best album. i was never totally sold on RTJ before, but MTJ is pretty incredible. i wish all their albums were made like this now (with guest producers).

This is my least fave of the three - too long and mostly quite monochromatic. There are some definite bangers but the songs are structurally and sonically indistinct from each other. More guests would have been a big help.

I'm digging this a lot
"Call Ticketron" is so great, love the radio sample & Mike mimicking JJ Fad flow :)
having Tunde Adebimpe and Trina as guests on the same album is very "Run the Jewels"

call ticketron is a banger

Rolls great, more depth than I anticipated, after I learned there was an RTJ3. I had forgot about RTJ.

my biggest disappointment was finding out that the "Boots" feature was not by Boots Riley but some boring guy stealing his name

the other disappointment for me is that Danny Brown track cuz ugh jesus christ is that how his voice usually sounds? I know who he is but have never bothered to listen to him due to descriptions not being particularly appealing to my sensibilities and if that is his standard delivery um yeah I don't need any of that
― Οὖτις, Thursday, 5 January 2017 18:48 (nine years ago)
but generally this is great, another solid entry
that's the 'Danny Brown voice'. i love it, but he also uses a low register on some tracks:

I'm grateful that someone else finally said "ugh the Danny Brown voice."

i am not fond of it
― jason waterfalls (gbx), Thursday, 5 January 2017 20:27 (nine years ago)
it grew on me, but that's more of a danny brown thread opinion

master p-in' on these lost europeans
― blonde redheads have more fun (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 5 January 2017 20:47 (nine years ago)
i've been saying "ugh Danny Brown voice" for years. if he ever makes an album that's all like Pac Blood i'm there.

they should append Mike's amazing televised speech the other day to the beginning or end of this record.

Still puzzled by some of the blowback I saw for his speech on Twitter, even saw a few tweets suggesting they change their names to "Lick The Boots". I guess because Killer Mike owns some property, he's a landlord and not to be trusted? Or is it because his dad's a cop? I don't know.

some ppl were presumably mad that he was not in favor of looting, but it's not like he wasted any breath condemning demonstrators

so far this seems like the leanest one since the first which is perfect for me rn

not 2 Chainz' finest appearance tho
― k*r*n koltrane (Simon H.), Wednesday, 3 June 2020 19:32 (six years ago)
That has been the low point so far. It sounds like his part was recorded over the phone, possibly on the set of Most Expensivest.

Massive and essential album. Why doesn’t Gangsta Boo get a “feat.” credit on “Walking in the Snow”?
