Basically, Joey Bada$$ is from Brooklyn. He’s great. Last year he dropped a bombshell of material. Two solo mixtapes and two with Pro-Era. The seventeen year old should win a thousand gold stars for hard work. He should win a trophy for reinstating backpack Brooklyn rap.

Over the weekend, HipHop Nation premiered a new track proving that Joey is showing no signs of turning off the creative tap in 2013. The DJ Premier produced cut, “Unorthodox”, sounds like New York. It reminds me of Larry Clarks Kids and, not that I needed to be, reminded me that Joey is STILL great.
