The NYTimes article on El-P is here!
Excerpt: "I'll Sleep When You’re Dead is also a throwback to the indie-underground rap scene of the '90s, when a certain kind of rap held sway for connoisseurs and critics: music often defined by abstract or bookish rhymes, unconventional music and anti-mainstream attitude, as opposed to radio-friendly bragging and dance-floor fodder."
