"Fuck it, why wait. The world is infested with bullshit so here's something raw to listen to while you deal with it all."

Run The Jewels have surprise released their new album, RTJ4, two days early.

The album takes in guest features from Mavis Staples, 2 Chainz, Zach De La Rocha, Josh Homme, and Pharrell, amongst others, and follows on from the duo's 2016 album, Run The Jewels 3.

"Fuck it, why wait," the duo wrote in a statement, referencing the album's early release. "The world is infested with bullshit so here's something raw to listen to while you deal with it all. We hope it brings you some joy. Stay safe and hopeful out there."

RTJ4 is available to download for free here, with the option included to donate to the National Lawyers Guild Mass Defense Fund at checkout amid widespread Black Lives Matter protest across the US.
