Joey Bada$$ has been met with critical and popular acclaim since he dropped 1999 in 2012. But he still feels like the world is unprepared for the steady torrent of flames he intends to unleash over the course of his career.
That is the matter at hand in "Ready," his new record that dropped Monday evening by way of Ebro's Beats 1 radio show. Ebro mentioned that Joey's been working on another album that'll likely drop at the end of 2016... they ain't ready.
Production is handled by Statik Selektah, who just released his STATIK KXNG album with Crooked KXNG. The beat is rather melancholy, which lends an air of seriousness to Bada$$' braggadocio.
Quotable Lyrics
60K first week for the Bada$$
200K to this day I know you niggas mad
With the 80-20 split my nigga do the math
My nigga Kirk just outsold Troy Ave
