#16 | RUN THE JEWELS | RTJ4

According to Jesse Ducker: “Not to sound cliché, but it really feels like we’re at a tipping point in global history right now. There’s a sense that right now, real change is possible. Or it could all descend into a dystopian hellscape. Run the Jewels captures these feelings of anger and uncertainty, and channels them into musical form. Like real revolution, it’s not always pretty, but its wholly satisfying and never half steps.”
