Run The Jewels have extended their ‘Run The World’ tour with newly added UK and European dates. They will be joined by very special guest Danny Brown. Tickets for the UK dates go on sale 10am on Friday 16th June.
Since the surprise Christmas release of Run The Jewels’ incendiary third album, “Run The Jewels 3”, the powerhouse pair have continued to go from strength to strength. Their ongoing ‘Run The World’ tour has seen them rampage through a 36-date run in North America culminating in four sold out shows at New York’s Terminal 5.
They will play their biggest ever venues in Europe, including a triumphant gig at London’s Roundhouse, and continue to comprehensively tear down major festivals (including Primavera, Field Day and, just yesterday, Parklife).
RTJ also recently teamed up with Danger Mouse for “Chase Me”, their song “Legend Has It” features on the new trailer for Marvel’s forthcoming film, “Black Panther”, and last week the duo won two A2IM Libera Awards.
On the UK and Europe leg of the tour, Run The Jewels will be joined by Danny Brown, one of the most original and exciting rappers around, currently riding high thanks to his trailblazing album, “Atrocity Exhibition”. Already a friend and member of the RTJ extended family, Danny features on “Hey Kids (Bumaye)” from Run The Jewels 3.
