Run the Jewels have shared a new video for ‘yankee and the brave (ep. 4)’, the opening track of their most recent album RTJ4. The clip, which features cartoon versions of Killer Mike and El-P being chased by police, was directed by Sean Solomon and animated by Titmouse. Check it out below.
Chris Prynoski, the president and founder of Titmouse, said in a statement: “Killer Mike and El-P would f*** up some robot cops in real life, so I consider this animated music video for “yankee and the brave” a documentary—that documents the future. The prophecy of Run the Jewels has flowed through the Titmouse animators’ hearts and into their pencils. You can watch it before it happens as magical, moving drawings.”
Run the Jewels dropped RTJ4 back in June. Since then, Killer Mike and El-P have teamed up with blink-182’s Travis Barker on ‘Forever’ and unveiled the video for ‘Out of Sight’ featuring 2 Chainz.
