Series 5, Episode 9: Run the Jewels

Atlanta-born Killer Mike and New Yorker El-P make up American hip hop duo Run the Jewels and they’ve just released their fourth album ‘Run the Jewels 4’. Despite being written last year, this fire-fuelled album highlights stark realities of the world in 2020.

In a two-person special episode, they talk to Krishnan about optimism, protest, the creative process, marijuana (legal in their states), the U.S. election, and the anger and vitality of their new record RTJ4.
