I heard he lost a lot of fans cos of the so-called ‘woke’ s*** he said on the album but that s*** was so fire

Listening to Babylon has me like

Always gotta revisit that album every so often

It really is so much promise after those first 2 tapes, none of his albums have been anything special

he's never been that interesting to me but his last album was fire

imma need a source on this

“ Is acting something you have wanted to pursue? You’re obviously well known as a rapper.

Yeah. I pretty much auditioned to get into Edward R. Murrow. Acting was what I was set to do. Every school that I applied for, I had to audition to get inside because I wanted to be part of the acting programs in those schools. By the time I was 14, 15, I was really committed to becoming an actor. It was just that when I got to Edward R. Murrow, I met all the guys from my Pro Era crew, and we were all so interested in music. So I realized in high school that music is my calling.
“By the time I was 14, 15, I was really committed to becoming an actor.”
I decided that, if music works out, acting will be relatively more easy. I could just use music as a leverage to get into acting. ‘Cause, especially coming out of New York City, there’s so many people trying to get into acting, just like there’s so many people trying to get into music. It’s almost like the same amount of people in the pool of it, you know. So if one is taking off already, I just decided I’d rather use that one to leverage to get to the other one. But they’re both things that I’m really passionate about. Of course, music being my number one, but I’ve always been passionate about acting.”

He just released a song a few days ago on YouTube only and it's doing numbers without any promotion

got damn how you get no like on OP?

Cause Joey didnt fall off lol

1999 is his best sure but all his other records are still good

The new single is fire how did he fell off?

I don’t think there was a single person in the world that thought Joey was going to be doing stadium tours lmao

He didn't fall off. But I haven't been interested in his music since B4da$$.

He just stop releasing music, he still a very skilled rapper

That police brutality groundhog day movie he's gonna be in is kinda weird

He a model now.

I ain't a numbers guy, but 550K in five days for someone like Joey Badass who has been very popular since 2012 doesn't really seem like "doing numbers". Regardless of no promo.

Like I said I ain't a numbers guy, and as time has gone on the barometers for doing numbers has changed. But I'd expect someone like him to get a million views in two days, especially in these days of the Rona where everyone inside and s***.

That's true. I'm not a numbers person either. But I guess in a way you're right. To be honest though it's kind of just like he dropped it and said nothing

Didn't know it even existed until ktt said.

Falling off and not making music are two different things.
By your definition, Kendrick Lamar and Frank Ocean would be the most irrelevant rappers of all time right now

Interest in music has kind of plummeted since the quarantine, people too sad to get up and dance, they'd rather wait for concerts to start again

This was a good diss fr

Lotta underground artists been prospering during this quarantine

Numbers could definitely be higher tho

and I know the landlord fed up with our lies

Ah that explains it

Mofos I was around use to gas him.
