Run the Jewels: RTJ4

The air is thick, the temps are rising, there is no doubt we are knee deep into the dog days of summer.  And what better way to wind up this summer than with a track by track analysis of Run the Jewel's "RTJ4"(2020).   We go through an abbreviated history of Killer Mike and El-P's solo and joint work before tackling this mammoth record.  This album was an instant classic for the backpack and tunnel crew, but what do your Hole Runners think of it?  Will Eric be inspired by the hard hitting lyrics?  Will Steve lay out some cardboard and get to breakin'?  Will Marc transform into a Hip Hop Head overnight?  One must listen to find out!
