Joey Bada$$ & XXXtentaction Put Their Twist On “King’s Dead” [LISTEN]

Some how, some way talented New York rapper Joey Bada$$ ends up on a record with Florida clout chaser, XXXtentaction. Both artists collaborate and put their twist on Jay Rock’s “King’s Dead” single off ‘Black Panther: The Album’, the soundtrack for Marvel’s “Black Panther” movie.

Badmon kicks things off with braggadocio raps about being the “youngest under 30 on the Forbes list” and address the king of New York conversation by rapping, “You n****s worried ’bout the crown, worried ’bout the crown / Fuck it, you can tell them clowns they can keep it.”

Many believe that was a dig at fellow New York rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine and although it might be, this is not the kind of blog where stuff gets stirred up like a cocktail. You be the judge for yourself.
