Run The Jewels' Cat Remix Of 'RTJ2,' 'Meow The Jewels,' Officially Funded On Kickstarter
Last month, El-P and Killer Mike's Run The Jewels announced a number of ridiculous fake pre-order packages for their upcoming album RTJ2. One of them was a package called "Meow the Jewels," which was described as a remixed version of RTJ2 "using nothing but cat sounds for music." One fan decided he would make a Kickstarter to raise the $40,000 needed to purchase the package, and because El-P has a sense of humor, he agreed to take on the project if it got funded. Surprisingly, it actually did reach its funding goal, and El-P has kept his word. -
