Run The Jewels Join Miike Snow
Run The Jewels have been busy putting out new music and videos all year, so it would be rude to stop now. Next up, El-P and Killer Mike have jumped on a surprise remix of Miike Snow‘s recent comeback single “Heart Is Full,” which was given an action-packed video last week. With a beat as pounding as this, it was only a matter of time before an emcee caused some damage. Here’s what band member Andrew Wyatt had to say about it:
“When we heard that RTJ were fans and down to get on this beat I was super excited… but cautiously so. I knew this was the type of beat that they could just eat for breakfast; but I was hoping that the whole thing wouldn’t come off sounding too retro. I was at Emile Haynie’s house when the email with the mix came through and so we stopped what we were doing to throw it up on the speakers. The moment Killer Mike launched into his verse, Emile and I couldn’t stop smiling; he had found that flow, the rhythm to his lines that was undeniable, the flow which was so huge as to transcend any trendiness in music and just be monolithically awesome. El P continued riding that same vein—and it’s like a sledgehammer.”
