This week the Clandestine Transmission gets back on that Sunday schedule after a detour to Tuesday over the last few weeks. Listen as your hosts El Keter and Emeyesi drop nothing but BRAND ASS-SPANKIN’ NEW Hip-Hop joints for about an hour. They also get lost in a loop of innuendo,[…]
CLANDESTINE TRANSMISSION // Vol. 16, November 15th, 2015 (Podcast)
Never ones to shy away from the “hot-button issues”, El Keter and Emeysi dive into discussions about “dog baby talk”, noisy neighbors, “jail-mail” and their “no chicanery” pledge on this week’s brand new installment of the Clandestine Transmission! They also happen to play you some flavorful Hip-Hop cuts, some futuristic[…]
CLANDESTINE TRANSMISSION // Vol. 2, April 26th, 2015 (Podcast)
El Keter and Emeyesi have returned with another Clandestine Transmission! This episode finds us going back, way back, to a time of legend and mystery…all the way to that long-ago age known as 2014! We deliver an audio recap of our “Best of 2014” list which appeared here on the[…]
Run the Jewels – Close Your Eyes (And Count to F**k) feat. Zack de la Rocha
If I ever get the opportunity to make a film adaptation of Robert Shae and Robert Anton Wilson’s ‘ILLUMINATUS!’ I want El-P to play Danny Pricefixer. Think he’d mind playing a cop? Get his second self-titled collaborative effort with Killer Mike as Run the Jewels if you haven’t copped it[…]
Run the Jewels – Lie, Cheat, Steal (Video)
El-P and Killer Mike of Run the Jewels explain the way to win; just “Lie, Cheat, Steal”, in the new video for their song of the same name. The duo’s ‘Run the Jewels 2’, one of last year’s best albums, is still for sale via multiple formats from Mass Appeal.[…]
El Keter’s Top 10 (Plus 1) Records of 2014
Now that 2014 has officially been put to bed I figure there couldn’t be a better time to take a moment to share my favorite records of the year. Make no mistake, these aren’t the only records I dug this year. And this list is in no way supposed to[…]
Run The Jewels – Oh My Darling (Don’t Cry) (Video)
I watched El-P and Killer Mike of Run the Jewels absolutely destroy the Paradise Rock Club in Boston last Friday. The entire place was vibrating from the nonstop bass assault they launched from the stage and from the crowd jumping up and down non-stop. My live Twitter feed looked something[…]
Run the Jewels – Blockbuster Night Part 1 (Video)
I’ve got tickets to see these dudes in Beantown this Friday. Their second LP as a duo, ‘Run the Jewels 2’, is an easy contender for album of the year. “Blockbuster Night” is full of alliterative wordplay and darkly violent imagery. Shit is hard. Run the Jewels is El-P and[…]
Run the Jewels – Run the Jewels (Video)
When El-P and Killer Mike teamed up last year under the Run the Jewels moniker they made one of the indisputably best albums of the year. Run the Jewels is still going strong in the New Year thanks to a colorful, but suitably macabre, video for their namesake track “Run[…]
Run the Jewels – A Christmas F*cking Miracle (Video)
Tis the season for a yuletide themed video for “A Christmas Fucking Miracle” from El-P and Killer Mike’s collaborative effort Run the Jewels. These dudes had a great year, releasing a fantastic album, touring, and making public appearances that make me hope they never stop making music together. Apparently they’re[…]
