Beast Coast brings out Joey Bada$$, Meechy Darko, Zombie Juice, Erick Arc Elliott, Kirk Knight, Nyck Caution, CJ Fly, AK and Issa Gold for a banger.

Beast Coast has arrived with no full moon in sight. After teasing a long-awaited album, the collective has finally come through with their insane single "Left Hand." Taking to an up-tempo, eerie instrumental, the combined forces of Joey Bada$$, Meechy Darko, Zombie Juice, Erick Arc Elliott, Kirk Knight, Nyck Caution, CJ Fly, AK and Issa Gold join to deliver one of the year's craziest posses cuts thus far. Immediately head-nod-inducing, Meechy sets it off with a hyper-energetic chorus, his trademark snarl setting tone of primal energy. From that point on, the collective proceeds to trade verses, fuelled by a welcome sense of friendly competition.

If that weren't enough, Meechy recently confirmed that a full-length album is officially en route, with "Left Hand" marking an early sign of things to come. "BEAST COAST ALBUM ON THE WAY JU HEARDDDDD," he writes, stoking hype via Twitter. The track also happens to mark a return for the long-dormant Joey Bada$$, who once again issues a reminder of his slept-on talents. Check out the Tyler Dopps & Sam Wish-produced track now, and look for more news on that Beast Coast project in the near future.

Quotable Lyrics

Say I'm under clouds I don't get fly
Got the techies lookin' at me like it's Best Buy
Could have been a Flatbush Zombie 'cause I'm dead nice
If you dap me with your left-hand, something ain't right
Because I don't got no time for no fake shit
N***s funny start, just watching when they shapeshift 

- CJ Fly
