    Which rapper-producer duo do you prefer? I think PRhyme is superior lyrically, but the overall sound and energy of RTJ is closer to my preferences. RTJ also has a more consistent discography, they got better and better with every album. On the other hand, PRhyme 1 is a classic, but PRhyme 2 is kinda average.

    I'm honestly not a huge fan of either, but it's RTJ and it isn't close.

    Run the jewels for sure. The first Prhyme was hella good, although the highlight is the ab soul and jay Electronica features.

    They both have a great producer... but one group has two great rappers and the other has zero.

    Will give some props to PRhyme here though. That first album was fantastic. The second is underrated. It suffers for being too long, and for wasting some great features on the deluxe version of the first instead of here. MF Doom, Joey Badass and Black Thought on bonus tracks is not right, and the guest list on 2 is a bit thin. Regardless, if you pick your best 9 songs from 2, it's still a good listen. I look forward to a third. The gimmick of changing sample sources will keep it interesting, and I hope to see many in time.
