    There’s a telling lack of conviction when he uses the past tense saying “I used to feel so devastated… now we on our way to greatness”. It’s a shame because when he settles for articulating rage from a less lofty position at the centre of a crowd he’s rejuvenated, alongside Schoolboy Q, J Cole, Styles P and Kirk Knight admitting a burn in his gut and boasting of how he’s “flowing religiously... Amerikkka’s worst nightmare, the super predator”. [May 2017, p.62]

    Amid too much mid-tempo drear it's left to Rockabye Baby to bring some fire to a n LP that rarely does more than enough. [Jun 2017, p.102]

B4DAMONEY was good but very disjointed nonetheless a good start. The way this was hyped I thought it would be a good album maybe more mainstream due to devastated vibes but he stuck to his guns and to put a socially conscious album with amazing production. In a time were we are filled with basic summer tunes by Drake or Mumble rappers over trap beats this was refreshing. Only very few can do it better (Kendrick) but this is the beginning of a bright career for Joey!… Full Review »
