Title: Joey Bada$$ – Summer Knights (Mixtape)
Post by: djole 213 on July 01, 2013, 01:05:27 PM: As promised, Joey Bada$$ lets loose his Summer Knights mixtape, the folow-up to last year’s debut effort, 1999. The 17-track offering features production from Alchemist, Lee Bannon, Pro Era’s Kirk Knight, Chuck Strangers, and DJ Premier on the album’s bonus joint, “Unorthodox.

yeah i agree. His beats are usually very dope, but his flow gets a bit boring.

Post by: Blood$ on July 02, 2013, 01:21:38 PM: his best project to date... I agree with the whole flow thing too though cuz that's something me and a homie talked about bumping 1999 awhile back

Yeah and that's why i like the Pro Era mixtape. No one really stands out but i think Capital Steez, Dyemond Lewis and Dessy Hinds are nicer than Joey.

Post by: Russell Bell on July 02, 2013, 05:16:19 PM: had this on repeat the last couple days

dope

beats are solid, his flow is good imo, and his style while reminiscent of a 90s rapper doesnt feel "stolen" to me
