By: hiphopdx.comPosted On: 06/25/2013 2:43 P

UPDATE #3: Killer Mike moves his "Run The Jewels" album with El-P up by three days, much sooner than you think. Mike Bigga and El-Producto are giving it away for free.

After the critical and commercial success of 2012's R.A.P. Music, Atlanta, Georgia's Killer Mike and Brooklyn, New York's El-P are taking it one step further. While Mike already confirmed a follow-up to the album on the Adult Swim imprint, SPIN reveals that for the upcoming works, El-P will be stepping in the vocal booth. Moreover, the pair will be now operating under the guise of a group, called Run The Jewels.

"It's probably like the hardest shit you can possibly say," the Company Flow co-founder told SPIN, who also previewed a R.T.J. snippet:

UPDATE: Yesterday (May 15), El-P revealed Run The Jewels' believed-to-be self-titled free album's features. Guests on the effort will include Prince Paul and Big Boi. El-P and Paul worked together during Handsome Boy Modeling School, with the then-Company Flow member appearing in the Handsome Boy's promotional video, as well as on 1999's So...How's Your Girl? and the 2004 follow-up, White People. Big Boi was a mentor to Killer Mike, and the pair worked extensively in the early 2000s, during the height of Purple Ribbon Records.

El's tweet also confirmed that while he will handle a bulk of the production, co-production duties were executed by Little Shalimar and Wilder Zoby.
