After a white supremacy rally in Charlottesville, Virginia erupted into violence last week, America has been locked in a discussion about Confederate history.
Activists have torn down monuments to Confederate leaders in cities such as Durham, North Carolina, whereas other city councils and mayors have made the decision to move or remove their own cities’ statues.
One thing Killer Mike would like to commemorate about the Confederacy is their resounding loss in the Civil War, a message he’s communicating with merch bearing a scoreboard that reads “CON 0 – 1 USA.”
Designed by Killer Mike x Villains x Daylight Curfew, the line boasts T-shirts, sweatshirts, tank tops and mugs celebrating America’s Civil War victory.
Mike’s caption on Instagram partially reads, “Make sure u grab one b4 we sell out!!!!”
Earlier this week, the Run The Jewels MC also posted a video detailing the differences between Confederate leaders and slave owners like George Washington and Thomas Jefferson.
“They were oppositional force to this union,” he said. “They were trying secede from this union.”
Referring to Donald Trump as a “casino-owner masquerading as the President,” he advised, “Don’t cheer for the team that was trying to break up the country you’re now in charge of leading. Their flags don’t go up because they’re fucking losers.”
Check out the full line of merch here.

C’mon Killer Mike you’re better than this. This isn’t gonna calm the waters if anything it’s gonna make it worse. I know album sales are low but don’t sell out like this.

This is like throwing gasoline into the fire, division at is finest
these idiots don’t know history. the whole idea with unification was that southern states were treated as equals and southern soldiers were treated as legitimate veterans. lincoln said america would treat them as brothers. this is all pretty treasonous.
You all must be millennials or white. Must have NEVER heard a Killer Mike album. This is nothing new.
