#Throwback Episode - w/ Run The Jewels | (Ep.61)

N.O.R.E. & DJ EFN are the Drink Champs and we're taking it back to some of the most legendary moments in Drink Champs history. Classic interviews, unforgettable stories, and iconic guests who shaped the culture.

In this classic throwback episode of Drink Champs, N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN chop it up with the legendary Run The Jewels!

Run The Jewels pull up for a wild, unfiltered conversation that’s equal parts hip hop history, raw honesty, and pure chaos. Killer Mike and El-P sit down with N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN to break down how an unlikely partnership turned into one of the most powerful duos in modern rap. From their first studio sessions to building a movement that resonated across the globe, RTJ dives deep into the chemistry, trust, and creative freedom that fueled their rise.

The episode touches on their independent grind, the politics of the music industry, and how they’ve managed to stay fearless in both sound and message. Killer Mike speaks on Atlanta roots, activism, and speaking truth to power, while El-P reflects on underground hip hop, production innovation, and carving his own lane outside the system. Of course, it wouldn’t be Drink Champs without classic stories, laughs, and plenty of drinks as the champs celebrate victories, lessons learned, and the culture at large.

This episode is a must-watch for fans of Run The Jewels and anyone who respects artists who bet on themselves and win. Legends, gems, and unapologetic real talk—RTJ style. 🍾🔥
