True Story: we love El-P. The rapper-producer who cut his teeth in Company Flow who later would make up half of our Season Finale artist Run the Jewels, El-P is a force unto himself, having also given us a trove of indie-rap staples via his Definitive Jux label. Thus, we're celebrating the man's discography and rankin' it all from Worst to First. A cinematic episode that was filmed on Deep Space 9mm. /// Our theme song for this episode is "Everything" by Sam Sparro from his 2020 studio album BOOMBOX ETERNAL.
