MC Baje—one half of Brooklyn-based hip-hop duo Junk Science—has explained “Running Shoes” as “an Obama song that has nothing to do with politics.” The lyrics, laid over Baje’s partner-in-crime DJ Snafu’s lo-fi beats, celebrates the election of the current U.S. president and looks towards the possibility of change. “Running Shoes” is the first track being released as a free download in preparation of the duo’s third studio album, A Miraculous Kind of Change, due out later this year.
