Joey Bada$$ Vinyl Records
Rapper, actor, producer, and founder of the Pro Era collective, Brooklyn-born Joey Bada$$ is among the more prominent voices to have arisen from 2010s rap. Influenced by Nas, Tupac, Black Thought, and other foundational figures of golden age rap, Bada$$ brought his own personality to insightful street tales and socio-political rhymes, smoothing out his sound with sample-heavy production and mellow, '90s-informed beats.
