Run the Jewels Share RTJ4 Early in Support of BLM Movement
Although the duo of Killer Mike and El-P initially planned to release their fourth album RTJ4 on Friday, Run the Jewels have surprised the world with an early release and FREE download.
The pair of Killer Mike and EL-P have always been outspoken fighters against police brutality and racial inequality in the United States, and while the topic is no stranger to their discography, it bites back this time on RTJ4.
“Fuck it, why wait?
The world is infested with bullshit so here’s something raw to listen to while you deal with it all. We hope it brings you some joy. Stay safe and hopeful out there and thank you for giving 2 friends the chance to be heard and do what they love.
With sincere love and gratitude, Jaime and Mike.”
As well, Run The Jewels have provided a list of organizations on their website that are fighting for justice, change, and equity in America, including their longtime allies the National Lawyers Guild which, amongst other things, provides legal representation for lawful protesters. You can find the full list of organizations here: runthejewels.com/pages/donate.
