Jul 19, 2023Review só pra lembrar a nota que eu dei pro album:
album mt bom, agora só escrever pra passar dos 75 caracteres. -
Jun 29, 2022No real story to the album but has so many good songs. there are only a few questionable songs but overall this album has some of his best work in it and is very underrated.

Jun 8, 2020I like Joey a lot. I just don't like this album. Other than Christ Conscious and Paper Trail$, no tracks really stand out to me. It has a theme, and in that regard is more of an album than 1999, however I just like the songs, features and beats a lot more on there. Luckily this was a one time mistake, as his next album, All-Amerikkkan Bada$$ is his best album, definetly worth checking out.

Dec 20, 2015B4.DA.$$ by Joey Bada$$ is nice album. There is a few good tracks on this album, but it's not the best position in this year. My favourite track is 'Paper Trail$'. 6/10

Dec 4, 2015Joey is bringing the 90's hip-hop era back with a modern twist. The Pro Era member goes from emotional to a "fire" spitter, which makes for a different and intresting LP. He has really matured since 1999 and Summer Knights. He's only 19 and is still improving.

Sep 21, 2015Joey Bada$$ is a creative genius when placing b4.da.$$ together. He is still on 20 so greater pieces of work are in stall. His flow and production is amazing, as he can switch it up for bangers, such as bug dusty and christ conscious and less aggressive, smooth songs such as escape 120 and hazues view.

Jul 28, 2015- Personally, This Has Been My Rap Album Of The Year.
Hard Not To Get Carried Away By The Throwback Feel It Produces When You Listen To It.
Production Could Have Been (Slightly) Better, Maybe? But Great Effort Still. -
Jul 9, 2015At the same time that Joey's influences are very clearly present on his music, he is capable of carving his own style and lane. His skilled wordplay is finally translated in conceptual song and great storytelling on B4.DA.$$, making it an essential record.

Jul 8, 2015my man joey bad put out a very good album one of the best albums of the year and one of the best NY albums in recent memory thank you for this mr. bad.

Apr 22, 2015With this album Joey Badass brings rap back when it was good: the 90's. The Nas inspired East Coast vibe is a welcomed nostalgic ride. Joey gives his 100% on every track and the DJ Premier beats are going so well with the verses he's spitting.

Apr 19, 2015Great Album! The more I listen to this album the more I like it. Some wasted space although I keep finding myself listening to it. Some tracks like "Save the Children", "Like Me", "Belly of the Beast", "O.C.B", and "Curry Chicken" are underrated. I'm not sure this album hasn't sold very well. I could probably go as far to say I like it more than Drake's new album, but thats just me.

Apr 6, 2015Musically and lyrically excellent, staying strong throughout the album. Only criticism being the sounds are quit similar throughout. As a result, songs do occasionally blur into each other when remembering the album.

Feb 24, 2015Joey's lyrical flow already makes him enjoyable to listen to, and his execution of this album proves that he'll soon be a big time name in the rap industry. I love the New York-style production that has become the trademark of his music. Added with his content and delivery, B4.DA.$$ is one of my favorite albums to listen to

Feb 2, 2015The new east Coast classic. Takes you back to the nineties but not on a sentimental tip. Straight up dope ass hip hop from one of the best young mc's around. Pro Era has the throne with this piece.

Jan 24, 2015This album brings everyone back to the 90's. 1999 and summer knights are amazing but i can still put b4.da.$$ as his best project to date. Favorite song is probably "Like me" , "Hazeus View" , "Run up on ya" all 3 of these songs are amazing

Nov 5, 2015A nimble, melodic wordsmith, Bada$$ casts his effortless flow over a loose collection of jazz and boom-bap backdrops.

The WireMar 11, 2015It's a fair reminder that innovation in hiphop shouldn't be judged by the standards of less journalistic musical forms. [Mar 2015, p.59]

Feb 13, 2015This fine debut is also filled with productions from Statik Selektah, DJ Premier, and others whose names hold weight.
