The once unlikely duo turned unstoppable juggernaut Run The Jewels came by for a chat with VICELAND's Desus & Mero. Fresh off the latest release in a trilogy of self-titled dopeness, RTJ blesses us with their signature blend of experience, anecdotes, and overall bromance. The vibe is jovial, but there's some hip-hop history to behold as Mike reminisces on his days kicking it with Outkast.

"Big said 'yo, go in the studio and rap, and I didn't have a rap written, I was drunk, I was high, but I freestyled Snappin' & Trappin'," says Mike, and who knows what might have happened if he hadn't managed to come through off the dome. Check out the video for the full interview.
