Run The Jewels’ second free album RTJ2 is set for
release on October 28th, till now El and Mike have shared two tracks, “BlockbusterNight Part 1” and “Oh My Darling Don’t Cry,” which have both been pretty
great but I’d be lying if I didn't mention
my worry when I saw the guest list for the forthcoming LP. It’s not that I don’t
like the names that were shared, I do, I‘m just not a big fan of guests on hip
hop records, especially when the artist or artists in question already do a
bang up job on their own.
“Close Your Eyes And Count To Fuck,” features former Rage
Against The Machine frontman Zack De La Rocha, not just providing the vocals
for the repeating hook, but also gifting us with a couple of versus. I can
breathe easier as it’s still clear who’s running the show and gives me hope
going forward that RJT2 is going to be just a solid as its predecessor.
