Legendary Atlanta rapper, activist, and one half of Run The Jewels, Killer Mike, has proven to be one of the most prolific artists of his generation. Last year, he revealed the next era of his solo endeavor with his personal single, “TALK’N THAT SHIT!” This past weekend, he completed his comeback as a solo artist by releasing his first album in eleven years, MICHAEL.
Killer Mike has always displayed a lyrical prowess that toes the line between thoughtful and disruptive. MICHAEL finds the Atlanta rapper in his bag yet again as he speaks on issues like racism, politics, abortion, personal growth, and more. The productions draw heavily on gospel and church sounds and are rich with old-school samples that lend a spiritual energy to the project.
MICHAEL is also stacked with a collection of features from some of hip-hop’s biggest names, including Andre 3000, Young Thug, 6LACK, Ty Dolla $ign, 2 Chainz, CeeLo Green, Future, and more. Stream the entire project below and enjoy!
