Today also marks the two-year anniversary of Killer Mike and El-P’s second album, RTJ2. The rap duo sat down with Beats 1 host Zane Lowe and said the record is nearly finished.
“We’re in the process of finishing it up right now,” El-P explained in the interview. “We’re trying our best to get this motherfucker out!”
Meanwhile, Killer Mike likened the album to the apocalypse and World War 3.
“This is a powerful one - we always knew that this would probably be the first one we were gonna drop,” he continued. “This one just felt right it opens it up. When people hear this, they’re gonna get a piece of the energy to come. We’re definitely not playing games.”
