Description

The young New York prodigy celebrates his 20th birthday on January 19, 2015, with the release of his highly anticipated debut album! 17 tracks including "Big Dusty" and "Christ Conscious" (+ 4M views on the music videos!) and prestigious collaborations with DJ Premier, JDilla, Action Bronson, Hit-Boy, Kiesza, Chronixx... * It only took one mixtape for Joey Bada$$, barely 18 years old, accompanied by his collective PRO ERA, to establish himself as one of the most promising talents of the new US hip hop scene made in Brooklyn! "1999", released in 2012, with over 2 million downloads, was awarded a BET Award and captivated critics such as Pitchfork, New York Times, New York Post, and Billboard Magazine, who dared to compare him to hip hop icons: Notorious B.I.G. and Nas. In France, too, he immediately caught attention: Télérama "A tribute to an era when the swing of rappers brought New York to its knees, this debut album by a Brooklyn high school student is a masterstroke." Les Inrocks warned that Kendrick Lamar's reign might not last! "Three years ago, with the advent of Tyler The Creator and Kendrick Lamar, everything suggested that the future of American rap was basking in the California sun. That was without counting on the charisma of Bada$$ and his pack of young wolves ready to devour the Big Apple."
