money Killer Mike, Future & André 3000 Are ‘Scientists & Engineers’ on New Single: Listen Now
The last time Killer Mike released a solo album, Barack Obama was still the President of the United States. In the time since 2012’s R.A.P. Music, the Grammy-winning rapper joined forces with Brooklyn-based producer El-P to craft four stunning albums as a duo named Run the Jewels. Since the turn of the decade, the Atlanta rapper has been easing his way back into solo releases. Last year, Killer Mike released two singles — “Talk’n That S–t!” and the Young Thug-assisted “Run” — both of which are set to appear on Michael, his forthcoming sixth studio album.
