Killer Mike released his debut album, Monster, in 2003. The album's lead single was "Akshon (Yeah!)", it featured OutKast on guest vocals, and was included on the soundtrack to the 2004 version of EA Sports popular video game Madden NFL. He even made a Madden '04 remix of "Akshon (Yeah!)" for the game. Following the release of his own material, he appeared on "Flip Flop Rock" and "Bust" on the Speakerboxx half of Speakerboxxx/The Love Below. He also appeared on "Southern Takeover" with Pastor Troy on Chamillionaire's CD The Sound of Revenge. His second album "Ghetto Extraordinary" has had its release date pushed back several times due to disputes between Big Boi and Sony Records.
He collaborated with underground legendary producer and MC EL-P on his album R.A.P. Music in 2012. Mike and El-P went on to form the famous hip-hop duo Run The Jewels, releasing their debut self-titled album in 2013, RTJ2 in 2014, and RTJ3 in 2016, with RTJ4 planned for a release in 2019.

Killer Mike Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Me and my homies are sayn fuck the blue
We sport red rags and let them hang
When a scrap rund up shoot him in the brain
With no hesitation were in this killer kali nation
I'll blow your brains out like playing PlayStation
Fuck probation and the Gang Task Force
Those bitch ass cops are hores
It relaxes my brain so you know I can't complain I know you like this its makeing you go insane NORTE is what I bang
So get it threw your brain
It's CAN'T STOP WON'T STOP till the end
XIV FUCK THE 1-3

The lyrics to Killer Mike's song "Sex Drugs Rap & Roll" are a bold and provocative commentary on gang culture and criminality. The first line, "I'm a gangster let me tell you," sets the tone for the rest of the song, which features explicit references to violence, drug use, and police brutality. Mike and his "homies" are portrayed as uncompromising rebels, defiantly wearing red rags and engaging in deadly shootouts with their rivals.
The line "With no hesitation we're in this killer kali nation," refers to the California gang mentality, which is frequently glamorized in popular culture but is also responsible for countless deaths and destruction in urban communities. The reference to blowing someone's brains out "like playing PlayStation" underscores the callousness and disregard for human life that characterizes gang violence.
The lyrics also contain a sharp critique of law enforcement, particularly the Gang Task Force, which is often accused of targeting young people of color in low-income neighborhoods. By calling out "those bitch ass cops" as "hores," Killer Mike is expressing his disdain for the systemic oppression that fuels gang activity and undermines community trust in law enforcement.
