Killer Mike will drop a new solo album titled MICHAEL on June 16 and it will serve as his first solo outing in over a decade. One half of Run The Jewels is joined by his rhyming partner and thankugoodsir, along with some co-production from No I.D. for “Don’t Let The Devil.”
Killer Mike and El-P are trapped in the Night of the Living Dead in the video for “Never Look Back.” Clearly, looking back will get you eaten by zombies. From RTJ4.
A year after RTJ4 dropped Killer Mike and El-P release a deluxe version of the album including a remix of “Ooh La La” that gets a guest spot from Lil Wayne.
The toys have gone wild! Killer Mike and El-P drop another video from their excellent RTJ4 album with “Walking In The Snow.” The duo show up as toys in a dystopian bedroom and aim to lead the revolution. Yeah, it’s wild.
Killer Mike and El-P connect with Royal Blood for a reimagination of “The Ground Below.” The added flavor gives it a genre-bending accent and is a welcome addition to the fantastic catalog of Run The Jewels.
Your Old Droog will release his Dump YOD: Krutoy Edition project on December 4th and releases the first single “Pravda” with Black Thought, El-P, Mach-Hommy and Tha God Fahim adding their bars to the extended cipher.
Run The Jewels reconnect with Adult Swim to get animated with the video for “Yankee and the Brave.” Killer Mike and El-P are on the run from robot cops and, as you can imagine, they make their escape.
The cast from the Amazon Original movie “Get Duked!” try to pull a heist at the Run The Jewels crib and end up dealing with some complex issues from the duo and guest 2 Chainz. Check out the video for “Out of Sight.”
Travis Barker and Run The Jewels connect for the first time since 2014 as Killer Mike and El-P bless the Blink 182 drummer’s “Forever.”
Stop-motion animation is front and center in Run The Jewels latest video for “Ju$t” that features Pharrell Williams and Zack de la Rocha.
Visual artist Winston Hacking took charge on the lyric video and had this to say:
“I worked closely with Run The Jewels to create a satirical time-capsule of 2020 thus far, capturing the sentiment of their song using collage animation. Drawing on the influence of Public Enemy’s classic ‘Shut ‘Em Down’ video, we combined cut up images from contemporary and historical events into a psychedelic protest vignette, a visual f**k you to systemic racism.”
