AceShowbiz - Run the Jewels' performance at the at SXSW in Austin, Texas was interrupted by a man trying to attack one of them. The pair were in the middle of performing a song for the crowd during their show at Spotify House on Monday, March 16 when the man suddenly appeared on the stage and attempted to hit El-P.
Killer Mike saw the man and intercepted him before he assaulted El-P. Some people of their team later jumped on the stage and helped remove the invader who then hit random dudes in the audience before getting knocked to the ground by a security member.
Following the incident, Run the Jewels continued the show. According to a concertgoer, El-P told the crowd, "We have no idea what that was," while Killer Mike added, "That was a f**kboy."
Later in the day, El-P took to Twitter to thank everyone attending their gig and apologize for the "brief interruption."
