This Zack De La Rocha guy is really good, he should start a band

I'm a 40 year old RATM enthusiast and just discovered RTJ. Where have I been?! This is fire.

I mean... "My solitary condition's preventin' conjugal visits Though mainly missin' my missus, they keepin' me from my children Conditions create a villain, the villain is given vision The vision becomes a vow to seek vengeance on all the vicious Liars and politicians, profiteers of the prisons The forehead engravers, enslavers of men and women Including members of clergy that rule on you through religion (So strip your kids to the nude and then tell 'em God'll forgive 'em)" That has to be one of the dopest verses I've heard by anyone, ever

Zach de la rocha slaughtered this joint

I still think the coldest line I’ve ever heard was “Even if some good ones die, fuck it the lord’ll sort em.” What a fucking line, gives me chills every time.

I don't know about y'all but this song soundin MAD relevant rn

If this isn't the illest song in modern Hip-Hop history, I don't know what is.

As a metal head this is one if the best songs ever made.

'We kill em for freedom cause they tortured us for boredom'

ZdlR is the only person in history who was simultaneously one of the best rappers and rock frontmen of his generation. It's amazing how he isn't super famous but just sorta emerges from the underground every couple of years to drop fire, like a mole with a flamethrower strapped to it. EDIT: recently checked out Zack's first band Inside Out - turns out he was also a badass in the hardcore scene. What a legend.

"I'm a New Yorkian, I'm fucked from the jump". Most on point lyric... probably ever.

RTJ always speaking truth. Couldn't be more relevant.

one of el’s nastiest beats. that distorted bass makes me face scrunch every time

This song didn't suddenly become relevant. The situation in the US was always fucked

It isn't just relevant now. It's *always* been relevant. The only difference is that more people are seeing it.

"IT'S DE LA ON THE CUT" yessss sweet devil it is.

man!!! anarchist rap, this shit just got light!!!!

I love how the lyrics sound exactly like something you'd hear in a Rage Against the Machine song, which makes sense considering Zack worked on this song

When he said "The only thing that close quicker than our caskets be the factories" covid-19 felt that 😔

"The only thing that close quicker than our caskets be the factories" Life in the midwest in a nutshell

3 underrated rappers on one song good lord

When I heard this in the Watch Dogs 2 trailer I was like "YEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!"

when Travis Barker and Dj Shadow AND Zack came out during Run the Jewels set at Coachella; i aint never raged so hard in my life.

zack bringing back that old school RATM flavor... RTJ - real hip hop

Just started listenin to Mike after seein his interviews with Bernie... LET'S FUCKING GO

I hope Zack continues to work with RTJ, he straight murders with El-P's beats.

Zack shining on another track as usual. Props to Killer Mike and El of course.

Revolution music........ it's time brothers and sisters.

I'M HERE FOR ROUND TWO BABY

"It's De La on the Cut" always bringing bars

runem.exe has stopped responding

Still in awe at this song. The fucking brutality shown in every line is unreal. And that ZDLR line referencing Philip K Dick’s “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep” and Blade Runner as a representation of racism and oppression is one of the best verses in any modern hip hop song!

Hearing De La Rocha rap is magic. Adore this track, that beat goes hard.

This song made me start running for the first time in years.

Song Makes we wanna put diesel in my Prius

More relevant than EVER!

Aussie Open #CrownsUp 🤟🏻🤘🏻

El's production man. Good god it never ceases to amaze.

Now THAT'S how you rage against the machine... Ugh. This hurts my soul.

liked the shout out to miles Davis in Zach's verse

This is one of the best beats I've ever heard, along with Oh My Darling Don't Cry... That beat switch up was FUCKING INSANE

Zach’s flow is like honey

Mike's second verse on this has to be the most technical and true fire I've ever heard

It just doesn’t seem to matter how loud I play this, it never seems loud enough...

how many cops does it take to change a lightbulb? none... they beat the room for being dark.

Top 5 five's: 1) 5 (OG 5, can't complain) 2) Five 3) 5.0 4) √25 5)

The first four tracks go into eachother so beautifully, and it keeps that same intensity

The beat sounds like an assembly line of Zach de la Rocha clones

When this played in far cry new Dawn I lost my shit

De La Rocha's verse on this song is the best thing in his entire musical career.

Zach's verse is so lyrical.

A Wise man once said "We're all dead, Fuck it!" Quote of a lifetime

Paints such vivid imagery.

READY BROTHER

*Run The Jewels* might be the best pair of rappers ever heard and known

Killer mike banged his first verse

" *I'm here to buy hearts, I got hundreds, honey. The cheaper the parts, the better buy for the money.* " I've never related to a lyrics the way I do to that one.

You're a few years late to the party, gamers! But that's OK. Make yourself comfortable. Help yourself to El-P's massive catalogue of banger after banger after banger.

i just realised the bass is synced with a guitar riff that sound like its from rage against the machine.

New Dawn sent me here. I haven't heard this good quality of rap since the early 90's.

Travis Barker and Zack De La Rocha on this record!!! I DEMAND THAT THIS CHANNEL GETS 1 MILLION SUBS INSTANTLY!

No justice no peace RIP GEORGE

Has to be the among the dopest uses of a vocal sample in the history of hip hop instrumentals, would've loved to be in the room where El-P played this monstrous instrumental to Zach and Mike

Thank you for supporting Bernie Sanders

This has Rage levels of outrage, its about god damn time

The type of music you’d walk in slow motion to

Thanks El producto and killer Mike your music is one of the only things left in my shitty existence that actually brings me any peace in this world. You guys have literally saved my life more times than you'll ever know and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving me the strength to keep fighting

black on black on black with my ski mask that is my crook look is my favorite line haha

This song will never not blow my mind

A 74 year old white Jewish guy sent me here

De La Rocha absolutely demolishes this track.

Aussie Open opened my eyes to these guys ❤️

YA! Big Zach killin it again!

De la Rocha the coach ya.

He makes cook book Sound sooo cool

Fuckin' genius how the runnin voice sample is looped and used all through the beat. Fuckin' genius 👍

Song needs to be on a soundtrack for a movie. Would be a great needle drop

one the best songs of the fucking decade for sure

EL-P beats are GOLD

2:47 🙌 🙌 🙌 🙌💥

Zach De La Rocha has the best lyrics on this track

[Zack De La Rocha:] Run them jewels fast, run them, run them jewels fast Run them, run them, r-run them, run them, fuck the slow mo [Killer Mike (El-P):] Fashion slave, you protestin' to get in a fuckin' look book Everything I scribble's like The Anarchist Cookbook (Look good, posing in a centerfold of Crook Book) Black on black on black with a ski mask, that is my crook look How you like my stylin', bruh? Ain't nobody stylin', bruh 'Bout to turn this mothafucka up like Riker's Island, bruh Where my thuggers and my cripples and my bloodles and my brothers? When you niggas gon' unite and kill the police, mothafuckas? Or take over a jail, give those COs hell The burnin' of the sulfur, God damn I love the smell Like it's a pillow torchin', where the fuck the warden? And when you find him, we don't kill him, we just waterboard him We killin' 'em for freedom cause they tortured us for boredom And even if some good ones die, fuck it, the Lord'll sort 'em [El-P (Killer Mike):] We out of order, your honor, you're out of order This whole court is unimportant, you fuckers are walkin' corpses I'm a flip wig synonym, livin' within distortion I'll bite into a cyanide molar before you whores win I'm a New Yorkian, I fuck for the jump I wear my Yankee so tilted I actually walk with a hunch Look at Mikey, I think he likey, we are sinister sons (Aye, we the type to beat the preacher with a grin and a gun) [Hook - Zack De La Rocha:] Run them jewels fast, run them, run them jewels fast Run them, run them, r-run them, r-run them, run them, r-run them Run them jewels fast, run them, run them jewels fast Run them, run them, r-run them, r-run them, run them, r-run them [El-P (Killer Mike):] A wise man once said, ("We all dead, fuck it") Just spit it disgusting youngin', and hold your nuts while you're gunnin' I listened, tatted a sentence on my dick last summer Now I'll never get that phrase off my brain, it's no wonder I'm here to buy hearts, I got hundreds, honey The cheaper the parts, the better buy for the money I'm trained in vagina whisperin', glistenin' Waitin' for their christenin', I know the neighbors can't help but listen in A dirty boy who come down on a side of dissonance I can't even relax without sirens off in the distances Not shittin' you, little buddy, this fuckin' island's a prison The only silence I have is an act of conjugal visitin' [Killer Mike (El-P):] My solitary condition's preventin' conjugal visits Go mane and missin' my misses, they keepin' me from my children Conditions create a villain, the villain is givin' vision The vision becomes a vow to seek vengeance on all the vicious Liars and politicians, profiteers of the prisons The forehead engravers, enslavers of men and women Includin' members of clergy that rule on you through religion (So strippin' kids to the nude and then tell 'em God'll forgive 'em) [Hook] [Zack De La Rocha:] It's De La on the cut, liftin' 6 on your stitchy crew I'm miles ahead of you, you can sip my bitches brew My battle status is burnin' mansions from Dallas to Malibu Check my résumé, your residence is residue Call her a skin job and my honey dip'll backflip for you You playin', God your eye sockets, she gon' rip in two We sick of bleedin' out a trace, spray a victim, you Done dyin', Phillip AK Dickin' you With clips in the bottom, we dippin' from Gotham Yes eclipsed by the shadows, a dark dance to the coffin I'm a fellow with melanin, suspect of a felony Ripped like Rakim Allah, feds is checkin' my melody Yes aggressively tested we'll bump stretchers and penalties Dump cases with face and the cop pleas when we seizing a pump With reason to dump on you global grand dragons Still pilin' fast, plus Afghani toe taggin' Now they trackin' me and we bustin' back, see The only thing that close quicker than our caskets be the factories [Hook]

RTJ is something else. Love them

imagine Zach's voice is so fucking dope u can just play it as an instrument on repeat

Gotta say this song hit HELLA different when you’re on your way to a protest..

I think this or Thursday in the danger room are my fav rtj song it's hard to choose between this and that one. This one reminded me of my good days listening to ratm, but the lyrics to Thursday in the danger room just hit me so hard...and so close.

Just Drop RTJ 4!!!! We need something banging during the upcoming quarantine!!

Why am I now just listening to rtj for the first time? I’ve been missing out on a lot for years

Watch Dogs 2 and Far Cry New Dawn brought me here

Fuck, this summer we could have heard this live, with Tom and the rest of rage killing live instruments too.

As a 75% injin, I’m running this Ojibwa shit. You got us red brothers and sisters homie 🤘🏽❤️🤘🏽

Heard it ONE time and was HOOKED.

I wish I could like this song twice

Fav on the cd! The beat is fire and they spit nothing but fire! 5/5

This song always had been relevant

I got to see Zack perform this with RTJ in Chicago at Riot Fest! We were like 30 feet from the stage, it was awesome!

The production on this is tight af!!!

Aussie Open sent me

ZACH!!! Never disappoint !

I'm 56 and love this shit.
