Adult Swim Will Be Thowing an LA Music and Comedy Festival This Fall

For awhile, we had Riot LA. Every now and again, we have Festival Supreme. 

However, big time festivals featuring comedy in Los Angeles are had to come by. Adult Swim, fortunately, will be giving it a go by throwing a music and comedy festival at the Row DTLA this fall.

So far, a line-up has yet to be announced, but you can count on Run The Jewels being there. So, maybe, just maybe, you can forgive the delay on a new season of Rick and Morty if you’re in and around LA?

Get more details here.

Maybe if there’s a RTJ4 or RTJ5, they’ll get to actually do some of these release “strategies”? The apocalypse one might seem more feasible next year maybe?

In any case, the new season has a sketch with Run The Jewels on it, so you should be looking out for the season premiere on Thursday, January 5th at 10PM.

Run The Jewels’ Latest Music Video for Their “Meow The Jewels” Gives the Internet More Cats Than It Might Be Able to Handle

Not only did Run The Jewels redid an entire album out of cat sounds as a joke that became a real thing, but they have been making cat videos to go appropriately with it.

As a result, the music video by Cyriak for the track Meowpurrdy has put a new hellish spin on a cat video that’s not the average mid-day emotional-pick-me-up video where a cat is super cute.

In fact, the Internet might not be even ready for this many cats or cat monsters in general.

Watch it here.

An entire rap album made up of cat sounds? Yeah, that sounds like a joke because it is a joke. 

However, with Run The Jewels behind this whole project, they of course made an idea that El-P thought of while he was high into something that raised over $65K, much of which went to several great causes.

Take a look at a short documentary as to how all of this went down from start to finish.

We had no doubts that the Internet would back a remix album of underground rap made from cat sounds and “Meow The Jewels”, that very kind of remix of Run The Jewels, indeed reached its Kickstarter goal.

So, with that part finished, El-P, half of Run The Jewels, had to go audition cats, obviously. Watch that and throughly enjoy here.

Though covering developments in the rap game might sound a little off-brand for us, the idea that a rapper would be willing to do a remix of his upcoming album with just cat sounds made us laugh pretty hard. 

So, here’s us telling you about the amazing Kickstarter that’s raising money to make a remix of Run The Jewels 2, the to-be-released album from Run The Jewels (El-P and Killer Mike), with cat sounds.

Appropriately, it’ll be titled “The Meow The Jewels Package” and while they’re asking for a cool $45,100 on Kickstarter by the end of October, El-P has promised that, upon the money being raised, he’ll make the album and donate all the proceeds to charity.

Support charity and make perhaps one of the most awesome, fun rap albums ever.
