Joey Bada$$ Celebrates His "Born Day" w/ A Smooth Freebie

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

Joey Bada$$ celebrates his big two-oh with the release of the jazz-chopped loosie "Born Day." The B4.DA.$$ bonus cut is produced by Statik Selektah and finds Brooklyn's resident Bada$$ dropping introspective lines over Stat's chops, lush with Rhodes and a shuffle that'll lock you in, neck snaps and all. The Pro Era captain has more than one loose joint up his sleeve though, as today we're also graced with drop of his debut B4.DA.$$ LP, which channels the glory days of BK's sonic scene while managing to sound so damn new all at once. You can cop B4.DA.$$ on iTunes today, just be sure to put the funky freebie "Born Day" through your ears.
