RTJ3
Self-Released
2016
Rating: 9 dizzy eardrums out of 10
Hey look, another middle aged white dude who loves Run The Jewels! That's definitely a unique thing that warrants further investigation! Seriously, no one needs to hear another dipshit like me expound on the awesomeness that is El-P and Killer Mike. They manage to feel both old school and modern at the same time, which is probably exactly why RTJ appeals to people like me. There's about a million well written reviews already out there if you care to read such things, but here's the deal - if you're on the fence about Run The Jewels, they make it easy for you: go to the link above and you can download their album for free and decide for yourself if this is the best hip hop group of the last decade (hint: it is).
Side note: this came out so late in 2016 I'm probably putting it on my best of 2017 list because fuck it why not. It's probably going to be better than almost anything released in 2017 anyways.
