Joyner Lucas snaps.

While Joyner Lucas' 508-507-2209 will no doubt be overshadowed by some of the A-list albums that dropped today, it remains a dope project in its own right. Lucas has some serious skills on the mic, with a focused delivery that's refreshing in the age of autotune. The album features many solid cuts, but "I Need More" stood out as an immediate standout. 

Lyrically, it harkens back to Hopsin's "Ill Mind 5," in which Lucas goes in on an imagined person, picking their materialistic mindset apart without mercy. There's no telling whether or not he had anybody in mind, but perhaps it's the current hip-hop climate that has him stressing. Either way, the beat is hot, the flow is tight, and Joyner's album remains a solid listen.

Quotable Lyrics

I think you really aggressive
Your brain is clouded with too many possessions
You think you rich but you depressing yourself
It's just so pathetic and materialistic
I really think that all them drugs got you tripping
Your brain is ruined and your logic is different
