Run The Jewels Releases Video for the NSFW “Love Again”

Run The Jewels by Grady Brannan - Best New Bands

Chicago – Rap duo Run The Jewels is following up a crazy Coachella weekend – in which after getting an introduction from Bernie Sanders, rappers Killer Mike and El-P destroyed the Coachella main stage with a mind-blowing performance – with the release of the official video for “Love Again (feat. Gangsta Boo),” from Run The Jewels’ groundbreaking sophomore album, Run The Jewels 2. Produced by JASH and Pulse Films for go90, the Ninian Doff-directed clip couples “beautiful high definition footage of butterflies and bumblebees engaging in colorful floral pollination alongside Killer MikeEl-P, and Gangsta Boo‘s playful and provocative sexual lyricism – a nearly NSFW nature mini-documentary.” 

On Saturday, Killer Mike and El-P put on a stellar performance at Coachella 2016, complete with amazing guest appearances by Gary Clark Jr., DJ Shadow, legendary rapper Nas, BOOTS, Gangsta Boo, and Despot. Videos of “Nobody Speak” and  ”Banana Clipper” are available on the Coachella YouTube channel. Though the audience at the duo’s Pitchfork performance last summer, in Chicago, seemed to have one up on the crowd, who seemed rather still at times. It’s okay, it gets hot in the desert…  but fans will have the chance to redeem themselves this coming weekend when Run the Jewels hits the desert again on April 23rd for  the second weekend of Coachella, with more surprise guests and a featured broadcast of their set on YouTube’s new live 360 streaming capability. Following Coachella, Run The Jewels will return to the studio, where Killer Mike and El-P are completing work on their eagerly anticipated 3rd album, RTJ3, due out this Fall.

Following their RTJ performance, Killer Mike and El-P talked about the music video for “Love Again,” feminism, and politics, via the Coachella livestream:
