DJ Shadow has unveiled the music video for the song “Nobody Speak” featuring Run The Jewels, a standout track from his album ‘The Mountain Will Fall,’ out now on Mass Appeal Records. The video depicts a meeting of leaders that quickly descends into chaos, a scene not unlike what is unfolding in governments around the globe. It also features appearances by DJ Shadow and Run The Jewels.
Says DJ Shadow: "We wanted to make a positive, life-affirming video that captures politicians at their election-year best. We got this instead.”
Says Run The Jewels’ Killer Mike: "It's such a dope video. It's what I really wish Trump and Hillary would just do and get it over with...And even in that fight I think Hillary would win - and that's not an endorsement."
The video was directed by Sam Pilling and produced by Pulse Films, stars Igor Tsyshkevych and Ian Bailey, and was shot in NYC, London and Ukraine.

In advance of his album release, he hosted another classic Essential Mix for the BBC and also did a pop-up show with Beats1 called #Radioface, with more to follow later this year.

The actors are so good, they nailed the hell out of this.
-
The song is fire. The visual is lit. Together, it's a fucking inferno.
-
It gets more real as the years go on.
-
One of the all time best music videos. The slow visual with the fast vocals, and the confident badass build to chaos
-
Those two actors lipsyncing are brilliant. Really give the punch to the video.
-
I can't get over Killer Mike being disgusted by his own bars Amazing
-
A musical piece of art, with a message.
-
"Gentlemen! You can't fight in here! This is the War Room!"
-
You can tell everybody was having fun in the studio making this
-
This is aging pretty well.
-
To think this was made six years ago and I'm just now finding this gem. Rare case where the track and the video are badass!
-
Love the ending of this music video. The politicians squabble and fight but it's always the working people who have to clean up their mess.
-
I'm 61 years old and have come to love the genius lyrics that Rap and HipHop have to offer. This video is one of the best I've ever seen. Makes a powerful statement!
-
“Get runnin’, start pumpin’ ya bunions I’m comin’” is still one of the hardest lines ever
-
I feel like the two main guys had a blast doing this
-
Can we take a moment to appreciate two things? 1. That is seriously some great acting by the main two guys in the video. You can FEEL the tension between them. Also in most parts, spot on perfect lipsync! Seriously, nice work! 2. This video itself is very well made. Great colour grading, camera work, etc. For example, at 1:06, that closeup of the red tie guy's face is fantastic. The lighting across the face is perfect, his expression is so full of emotion, the use of depth of field blur to really make his face pop out of the scene is just spot on. Really, there are movies with box office releases that don't have production quality this high.
-
The beat is still so sick, no matter how many times I've heard this.
-
It doesn't matter how many times I've listened to it; it's never enough.
-
NO FIGHTING IN THE WAR ROOM!
-
Fucking AWESOME - one of the best Music Videos I've seen in a very long time!
