Run the Jewels dropped the first full track from Meow the Jewels -- the Kickstarter-funded parody remix of their critically acclaimed second studio album -- this weekend, and spoiler alert: it's everything you thought it'd be, but better. "Meowrly" takes RTJ2's police brutality commentary "Early" and spices it up with, well, cats: cat synth, cat beats, and one very drawn-out cat yowl. True to feline-loving form, the Internet is lapping it up -- comments on the track include: "jesus christ this is incredible,""Truly amazing,""Beautiful," and a seemingly unironic "Sick remix!" -- and one prescient SoundCloud user has already termed the genre "purrcore." Stream this masterpiece of musical absurdism below.
