Killer Mike (of Run the Jewels) is on a roll. He recently took to Facebook to stand in solidarity with women in the music industry who have accused his former publicist Heathcliff Berru of sexual assault. 

It’s not just that he’s standing in solidarity with women that makes this exciting. It’s his encouragement for more men to join him in holding other men accountable for their actions. 

Hell. Yes.

As I lay me down to fall asleep with my demons dying  and my pilot light weak, I curse the last six months I’ve been hiding behind a mustache, yeah.  And to those last 10 years I’ve been howling a paper moon.  Well fuck you.

Run the Jewels drop some major truth a year after Ferguson

“Riots work.” At least, that’s according to Run the Jewels. In a video exclusive to the BBC, Killer Mike discussed how the events that unfolded on the streets of Ferguson last year forever changed the city for the better. And Ferguson’s own law enforcement actually agrees.
