"Run" marks Run The Jewels rapper Killer Mike's return to solo duty for the first time since 2012’s R.A.P. Music. The video depicts a scenario in which fascists seek to return the South to the Confederacy-era, leaving Black people to fight for their freedom. A flag with the words “Free Thug, Protect Black Art, Free Gunna” is waved on the battlefield during Young Thug's verse.
