El-P never seemed so one dimensional as when run the jewels began. They're beginning to seem more like characters and it's no surprise zack de la rocha is involved because they're starting to feel like they have a target audience of adolescent macbook rebel's.

This stuff is so tame compared to that which made me get into el-p

I sort of agree with this. I'm not getting a whole lot out of Run the Jewels lyrically. That being said, the production is top notch. It's a lot "cleaner" than El-P's older stuff, but I can't think of a below average beat on either project.

Mike is certainly toning himself down

Meow the Jewels

Everybody following El-P on Instagram knows he is into this idea. I'll admit I want to hear it.
