Run The Jewels have added their own touch to Miike Snow's recent comeback cut "Heart Is Full".

Killer Mike and El-P lend a verse to the electrifying soul-pop melee that Miike Snow create. Speaking to The FADER, the band's Andrew Wyatt says: "When we heard that RTJ were fans and down to get on this beat I was super excited... but cautiously so. I knew this was the type of beat that they could just eat for breakfast; but I was hoping that the whole thing wouldn't come off sounding too retro. I was at Emile Haynie's house when the email with the mix came through and so we stopped what we were doing to throw it up on the speakers. The moment Killer Mike launched into his verse, Emile and I couldn't stop smiling; he had found that flow, the rhythm to his lines that was undeniable, the flow which was so huge as to transcend any trendiness in music and just be monolithically awesome. El-P continued riding that same vein - and it’s like a sledgehammer."

"Heart Is Full" is the first track to be taken from upcoming record iii, which is set to arrive in 2016.
