The Untold Truth Of Run The Jewels

Individually, Killer Mike and El-P have been two of the biggest names in the rap game since they debuted separately in the 1990's. But after being brought together by a producer for the Cartoon Network's Adult Swim, the duo formed the powerhouse hip-hop supergroup Run the Jewels - and they've never looked back.

With four hit albums under their belts so far, Run the Jewels have carved out a name for themselves with progressive political tracks that have become the soundtrack of the Black Lives Matter protest movement. And while Killer Mike has explored socio-political topics on his Netflix series Trigger Warning, El-P branched out by writing the soundtrack to the hit film Capone. SO what's next? Here's the untold truth of Run the Jewels.
