Run the Jewels<\/a> unveiled another new bruising track, \u201cOoh La La,\u201d from their upcoming album Run the Jewels 4<\/i>.<\/p>\n

The track is centered around a sample taken from Greg Nice (of Nice and Smooth)\u2019s verse on the 1992 Gang Starr classic, \u201cDWYCK,\u201d<\/a> while it also features record scratching from DJ Premier. That combo lends the song a distinctly old school vibe, over which El-P and Killer Mike are at their egregious best, spitting choice lines like Mike\u2019s outrageous couplet, \u201cFirst of all, fuck the fucking law, we is fucking raw\/ Steak tartare, oysters on the half-shell, sushi bar.\u201d<\/p>\n

In an interview with Zane Lowe<\/a> on his Beats 1 radio show, Run the Jewels spoke about how they were able to clear \u201cDWYCK\u201d because they finally had a bit of a budget to splurge on samples (El-P added there are a few other big ones still forthcoming). El also spoke about the throwback feel of the song, saying, \u201cListen, Run The Jewels, we don\u2019t intentionally do old school music. To us, we\u2019re just making dope ass new rap music. But our influences and who we are come from an era that is very real and that we really agree on, and there\u2019s a feeling that comes from that era that we know exists. If you can grab it and put it out there, then it\u2019s undeniable.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOoh La La\u201d arrives on the heels of \u201cYankee and the Brave,\u201d<\/a> which Run the Jewels released on Monday. Run the Jewels 4 <\/i>will mark the group\u2019s first album since 2016\u2019s RTJ3<\/i><\/a>, though an official release date has yet to be announced.<\/p>\n

Run the Jewels were supposed to open for Rage Against the Machine on their 2020 reunion tour, though the first half of that trek was postponed<\/a> because of the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n
