(AllHipHop News) The year 2020 has been consumed with a lot of unfavorable news stories so far. For example, Kobe Bryant and eight others died in a helicopter crash, political divisions in America continue to widen, the Coronavirus is spreading around the world, and Bashar “Pop Smoke” Jackson was murdered.
New York City-bred rapper/actor Joey Bada$$ decided to take time to share his thoughts on what’s happening at this time with his 950,000 Twitter followers and 1.9 million Instagram followers. JB uploaded a snippet of the track he is currently working on that serves as a response to the negativity.
