Huge fan of pretty much every track, but for my money, "Born of a Broken Man" is them firing on all cylinders.

Thanks for the info, that was news to me. I haven't looked it up since it first happened around 2003 or so.
That record is so good. I can't believe it got almost zero press, it was probably my favorite album of 2015.
I'm particularly fond of his verse in "2100". The flow is just top notch. "I don't wanna have to load a clip, only hunt bliss." "They don't even wanna show you love, shit is bug." The whole verse is full of great lines.
You could play a drinking game with those and the Ric Flair "WOOOO"s and need your stomach pumped by the end.
Personal favorites are:
It is without question their best album. I will never be convinced otherwise. Their first two albums are great, but it all came together on Battle of LA.
Arrested Development as well.
I love them. The whole "gypsy brewing" concept is fascinating to me. Evil Twin (owned by the brother of Mikkeller's owner) does some great work as well. They evidently do not like each other much. Great article about it here :
Why did he misspell his own fucking name on the suicide note is my biggest lingering question. You can misspell a lot of things when you're under that level of stress, but I can't imagine your own name is one of them.
They're bad for that. If your users point out an error in your article, and you fix it as a result, you should give them credit, or at the very least mark it as edited.
I still really want to see that cut that Topher Grace made that condensed all 3 movies into a single 90 minute film. I'm sure it's an improvement.
I am hearing it more each time as well. Right down to BOOTS at about the 2/3 mark. The vibe between Early and 2100 is very similar too, but that's to be expected I guess.
Fuuuuuuuck. I don't know that there was a GOOD way to learn of this news, but that hurt.
I almost dug into the semantics of it in my previous post, and edited out that sentence thinking no one would care, but here it is: I think it is still eligible on a technical level for 2017, as the physical release date did not change. I view this more as a controlled leak than an official release date.
This could make a really interesting For Your Consideration column or Roundtable discussion or some such.
Just the flow of the album. Early singles at the top, huge guest spot around the 1/3 mark. Also the marketing and release. After the last one dropped early, I was half-expecting it this time. Don't get me wrong, for my tastes this is a near-perfect album. I'm not complaining, it just feels like its following a tried…
This was without question the best gift I received this year. Listened back to back about 4 or 5 times already. They've kind of settled on a formula, but I don't even mind.
It would appear it has, yes. I am listening on Apple Music, I assume it is also on Spotify and other streaming services.
Run The Jewels 3 is live! I REPEAT: RTJ3 is available for streaming and download as an early Xmas gift. It's a Christmas fucking miracle.
