Run the Jewels Setlist
|
Run the Jewels played a sold-out Mainroom at First Avenue last night.
This is just a quick post to get some basic information, tour dates, photos, and setlists online, as soon as possible.
There was a consistent haze to the room, and surprisingly not caused by whatever the audience may have been using. Lights were sparse and dim for most of the evening's sets and the sold-out crowd was rowdy, head-bobbing and completely won over.
Cuz Lightyear opened with a brief 15 min. set and the crowd chanting "whut up, Cuz?"
Fashawn, in his brief twenty minutes, brought out both Prof and Brother Ali for separate duets and showcased DJ Fresh who twirled the knobs on a mixer embedded in a giant boombox.
BOOTS changed the mood to one of more moody electronica in his thirty minute set and returned to help RTJ on the song "Early".
Run the Jewels excelled in concert (many hip-hop acts can be dodgy when seeing them live) and co-MC EL-P, himself a longtime indie rapper, gave local indie hip-hop collective Rhymesayers its due respect in a speech, and dedicated their last song and set to Eyedea, who passed away almost five years ago.
For Run the Jewels ticketholders who stuck around, there was an Afterparty, featuring Trackstar the DJ.
