Killer Mike - "Big Beast (f/ Bun B, T.I. & Trouble)" (prod. El-P)

I don't know about you, but I've been waiting to hear the fruits of this much-tweeted about collaboration for a minute. Not only did El-P take it to the South (is there a slight old-school Cash Money thing going on here?), he put his '86 rusty-chainlink wasteland-bboy vibe to good use behind some of the best in the south, including Bun B, T.I., and my favorite new face in the A, Trouble. Killer Mike drops a reference to other ATL posse cut, "Welcome To Atlanta", that's true to his name: "these monkey niggas lookin' for some Luda and Jermaine/ and all that nigga found was some Ruger and some pain."

Off of Killer Mike's upcoming R.A.P. Music (that stands for Rebellious African People, btw, and that's wassup) LP, entirely produced by El-P. This is on the heels of El's recent announcement that he's done with his next solo, uh, album. So far, 2012 is off to a perfectly appropriate start.
