natenomm Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 I'm going to buy this so quickly. Run the Jewels is one of my favorite hip-hop albums of all time, and their Lollapalooza aftershow at the Double Door was the most fun I've had at a concert this year. johnnyawful 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
booms528 Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Wish they had stayed on Fools Gold, but I guess that doesn't make a difference in the music. Excited to see if the follow-up can live up to the debut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 I loved the first LP, but I never got around to ordering it. I'm never in the mood to listen to hip hop at home. I am really excited to hear this though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 The first album is the only thing i listen to anymore, and this new song is awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepunkguy Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 yeah I really love the new song. and this and a few handful of others (chance, action, asap and d brown) are the only hip hop I have been loving as of recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am really excited to hear this though. Throw it into your car mix for a commute or just while driving around town. I feel like it works especially well. Can't wait to hear their sophomore effort.

Questhate Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Need this badly. The first was one of the best hip-hop albums to come out in years. Actually got a Fool's Gold copy, and then had to buy the UK press for the extra Q-Bert track and remixes. Saw them most recently at Outside Lands and they brought out Q-Bert to do a song. Even my non-hip-hop friends with me could not deny how awesome they were. johnnyawful 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinxabney Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Hopefully wont' sleep on this one... Still looking for a decent priced copy of the first one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vector53 Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 I still kick myself for not getting the Fool's Gold first press. Not going to lie, just bought a copy of RTJ the other day for $17 at one of my local stores. Definitely go diving in any local indie record stores cause odds are they have really nice rap records that no one's buying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natenomm Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 It's super pretty too. And the bonus disc is great. It's probably the best version of the album, in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
