The Pro Era boys are on a heavy grind these days. With the Beast Coast album on the horizon, Joey recently confirmed that's finally complete. Shortly after, members of the Pro Era camp, including Joey, as well as Flatbush Zombies and The Underachievers, joined forces and brought back BET's Basement freestyle for a special Beast Coast edition. But that's not all they had in store today. Now, one member who's been noticeable quite recently is back with some new heat.
CJ Fly hasn't released any solo music in nearly 3 years but he's back with his latest single, "Bird." His latest effort follows the announcement of Beast Coast's Escape From New York album which is set to drop on May 24th. It's unsure if this single will be included on the tracklist but hopefully, it's a sign that his follow-up to FLYTRAP is on the way.
Quotable Lyrics
Always been there for some people but what I get back in return?
They took my kindness for weakness and that's why I had to be stern
I never knew how it felt so I had to get burned
I thought that we could fly together, why you had to act like a bird?
