Joey Bada$$ - The Ruler's Back (Official Video)

[@LLusion]

Joeys confidence is what makes him so likable. he could go years without dropping and people will still fw him

[@Fortune31Studios]

I gotta push back on that. Him not being active is what hurt him.

[@vsvaysolini]

@@Fortune31Studios Not really. Once you realize that as an artist you can explore many different mediums to express your artistic energy and get paid & Excell. He started with music, then went to acting, then working with colleges, and still wins. He’s right where he needs to be.

[@Fortune31Studios]

@@vsvaysolini I have no problem with artists spreading their wings. I highly encourage it. My point was if his goal was to be one of the greats, You can't be taking multiple breaks. You gotta lock in while the interest is at it's height but if that wasn't the intention you're hundred percent right. He's exactly where he needs to be & I'm very happy for his success

[@prevailwithme]

Joey Bada$$ needs a solid project now. Nothing too crazy of a tracklist, 14 tracks maximum all heat no filler. He dont need a forced commercial single either, that will only backfire. He has his core audience and thats more than enough. Alchemist, Conductor Williams, Dj Premier, Q-Tip, Nicolas Craven, Madlib, Roc Marciano, maybe a banger just blaze track. If he has that production that will be a instant classic.
