Bleep

Unstoppable hip-hop heavyweights Run The Jewels bulldoze the scene for a fourth time running with RTJ4 — and we’re hard-stretched to think of a time when they’ve been this subversive. DJ Premier appears on the boom-bap banger ‘ooh la la’ for some classy scratch action, as 2 Chainz goes in with a cash-money verse on ‘out of sight’. Strangest of all is the slow-burning, pseudo-trap, anti-racist bounce of ‘JU$T’, which comes accompanied by the unlikeliest of guests; Rage Against The Machine’s Zack De La Rocha yells his trademark yowl, while Pharrell Williams spits the kind of fury we haven’t heard since the early days of N.E.R.D.
