Meow The Jewels enlists Massive Attack

All profits will go towards victims of police brutality.

El-P took to Twitter earlier today to provide an update on Meow The Jewels. The cat-themed remake of RTJ2 is set to arrive in September. It will be available on streaming platforms as well as vinyl and digital formats.

Earlier this year, Massive Attack announced they were in the studio with Run The Jewels. The Bristol legends have contributed a track to the album, joining a list of contributors that includes The Alchemist, Boots, Zola Jesus, Just Blaze, Baauer and Portishead’s Geoff Barrow.

The digital version of Meow The Jewels will be available for free. All proceeds from the vinyl sales will go towards victims of police brutality. ‘Meowrly,’ the first track from the album, was premiered last weekend.
