← Back | Musician | 2 Music Videos
From the subterranean universe of indie rap to the stunning zenith of the mainstream music charts, Run The Jewels has undoubtedly had a profound influence on the music industry. This dynamic duo, consisting of Michael "Killer Mike" Render and Jaime "El-P" Meline, has been delivering heavy-hitting rap anthems since 2013, distinguished by their trademark mix of social commentary, unflinching honesty, and brawny beats that command attention.
Their music videos, without fail, are a visual delight, often as layered and complex as their lyrical content. One could liken the viewing of their videos to finding oneself amid a dazzling carnival where the spectacle is as thought-provoking as it is entertaining. Case in point, their video for 'Close Your Eyes (And Count To Fuck)' communicates a vivid narrative about police violence in a ceaseless loop of struggle between a black man and a white police officer. Meanwhile, 'Oh Mama' adds animation into the mix, akin to a zany, irreverent episode of Rick and Morty. An interesting tidbit about Run The Jewels - despite their hardcore rap identity, they have a quirky affinity for cats, as evident in their album 'Meow The Jewels', a remix of their original album 'Run The Jewels 2', but with all the beats replaced with various cat sounds! It's no wonder Run The Jewels continues to capture our fascination, both aurally and visually.
