El-P Says New Run The Jewels Album Will Be Out Before Coachella 2020

Run The Jewels producer El-P has announced that the new Run The Jewels album will be released before the duo is set to take the stage at Coachella this year, according to Paste. The announcement took place over Twitter, when El-P responded to a fan pleading for the reveal of a release date over social media:

El received support from fans following the exchange, but was quick to show his appreciation for all of his supporters and ensured the only reason for the delay is to make sure the album will be at its best.

The upcoming album, RTJ4, has been highly anticipated, as the release between RTJ4 and their most recent album, RTJ3, is 4 years in the making, their largest gap between albums since the release of RTJ in 2013. Despite this, the duo of El-P and Killer Mike have remained active touring, and are even involved with highly anticipated Cyberpunk 2077 soundtrack.

El-P also stated on Twitter that the official date will be announced soon. Read more about everything RTJ4 here.

Drew Feinerman: I have just completed my senior at the University of Michigan majoring in international studies with an emphasis in political economics and development, with a minor in Chinese language and culture, and I have recently been accepted into the Berklee School of Music's masters of music business program. Although my academic interests include economics, political science, and history, I consider music to be my one true passion. Music is, and has always been, a driving force for the way I think and act every day of my life. I have been playing the tenor saxophone since the age of ten, and playing an instrument at a high level has allowed me to only further my understanding and appreciation for music. While I grew up listening to predominantly classic rock, I soon found myself gravitating toward jazz, hip-hop, funk, and other genres, as my learned to both play and analyze music as a listener. As a writer, I am able to apply my skills both as a musician and a listener, and look forward to the opportunity to being able to express my thoughts on various stories in the music industry.
