Run The Jewels — the motley Hip Hop duo of Killer Mike and El-P — has been working on their next album for years. On Monday morning (June 17), it looked like fans finally had a release date for Run The Jewels 4, their aptly titled follow-up to 2016’s Run The Jewels 3.
After posting a photo of two hands clinking pint glasses emblazoned with the RTJ logo, the post quickly and mysteriously disappeared. But, those who were paying attention saw a release date in the caption that read, “9.7.19.”
The same image was later shared to their Instagram Story — minus the caption.
Mike and El Producto have been dropping hints the album is close to being unveiled to the public. Late last month, they posted a photo of themselves with producer extraordinaire Rick Rubin and revealed they’d spent the past week at his Malibu recording studio wrapping things up.
Last December, El-P teased a 2019 release date, but didn’t elaborate . Now, it looks like Run The Jewels 4 could arrive on September 7. It’s yet to be determined why the post was removed. We’ll just have to wait and see.
More self-hate and white loathing coming from El-P in t-minus 3, 2, 1…
Yup. Dinduisms from that fat white guy is cultural appropriation, right?
Woah woah woah, since when did hating white people become an exclusive endeavor?
hey, at least you still have kid rock to listen to!
Oh sit down already. Not everything has to be politicized my dude. Go outside. Enjoy sunshine.
and some of the bests beats and bars to ever hit the airwaves.
I mean pretty sure it was for another beer collab…
They have a beer coming out again.
I’m a Trump supporter who loves RTJ. Their occasional political comment doesn’t bother me. There’s a lot worse out there. Stop griping about every little thing people.
You bother us. I have no time for people who support ignorance, white supremacy, blatant lies, and putting personal gain above all else, or anyone who stands with them. RTJ is not a political band above all else, but perhaps you should pay more attention to what they are preaching and representing. A vote for Trump is a vote for hate.
Summer is almost over and still nothing new
