It seems as if we have seen Joey Bada$$ grow up right before our vary eyes. We saw the young Pro Era captain from his High Schools to having the confidence to say that he would flame the late great 2Pac in a battle. Nothing wrong with a little confidence and competition in Hip-Hop. Pac even said that he would beat KRS-One, Rakim, and LL Cool J in a battle. Joey’s newest single “Land Of The Free” is a reflection of the frustrating times that today’s youth faces. Joey has never been short of expressing himself lyrically and making sure you knew his perspective but you can hear growth in this joint.
The Nathan R. Smith directed video is full of powerful imagery that deals with issues of race, police brutality, and politics. These visuals make us look forward to what else Joey has to offer from his up coming effort.
