Kneecap have offered up a new version of Fenian standout “Smugglers & Scholars,” now featuring Killer Mike. During the guest star’s verse, the Run the Jewels star raps: “Fuck the masters, kill the kings / I will not never tire of watching the devil die / When they come and you never know / Empower the people and fuck all the devils forever, ho.”
“Complete with bigger melodies and broader, analog-synth-driven soundscapes,” we noted in our review of the record, “Fenian could be an early Springsteen work as it tackles old neighborhood characters and their interactions, both joyful and woeful on kaleidoscopic tracks such as ‘Smugglers & Scholars’ and ‘Carnival.’” Springsteen/Killer Mike collab when?
Kneecap are currently on tour. Check out those dates here and listen to the band’s link up with Killer Mike below.
