Joey Badass does a great job playing Unique!!! Can't wait for RK S3!!

[@BushyyBrow]

How you feel about Friday episode

[@drewskii2802]

@@BushyyBrow It sucked to see him go out like that but the story has to evolve

[@_haitian_barbie_]

@@drewskii2802I agree. It was really sad to see.

[@malcourtroom9996]

Sick n tired of performers hiding behind sunglasses while being interviewed!!

[@mirrbaby9854]

He plays the hell out of that role!!!! 😩 It almost doesn't seem like acting. He genuinely gives off 90's kingpin vibes on that screen lol. I love him!

[@keakeks]

His interview on Lip Service was also top tier. He was dropping gems the entire time. One of the few people that can really hold the interview and be full of substance

[@traynormightbehere]

1999 was so good man. still bump waves, don't front , hard knock & survival tactics. great interview

[@PraiseThaDon]

Survival Tactics and From Da Tomb 🔥

[@terrancemcclendon456]

Classic

[@thisistygtv973]

Couldn’t wait for thisssss man ! Been a fan of Joey from day 1 and his journey has been beyond insane ! Really love how he spoke about poetry, as a writer myself. Such a dope ass unique individual ! Always dropping Gems for real. The questions were on point ! 2000 still in rotation by the way ! Amazing episode guys, by far one of my favorites !

Caine Tejada and Unique are Multiversal Variants of each other... 😂😂😂

[@sheraydunbar729]

I agree 😃

[@PursedLipsofFull]

Not me admiring his skin before he speaks to how ending some relationships was actually goodt for his beauty/physical health.😂❤

Joey became my favorite rapper my 9th grade year i think he had just dropped $ummer Knights, to see how far he's come is no surprise to me, wish more people listened to his music some people literally only know him as Unique and its mind blowing to me😂😂

[@virtualbabe9171]

Before summer knights he dropped the album peep the apocalypse wit pro Era that’s when he started getting noticed even tho coming from a group of rappers

[@Wack100Bluebook]
