Joey Badass is finally back with a new song called “The Ruler’s Back.” Rapping to the beat of Conductor Williams, Joey kicks off the new year with a nostalgic style filled with fast beats and memorable bars, “Moved out of the city, built a house and a stick/A few acres, a few strips Whip, whole piece/. In the music video, he keeps things simple, performing outside a huge estate while posing in front of a Maybach SUV.
Fans in the YouTube comments section have been loving the song. “Joey’s confidence is what makes him so likable. He can go on for years and people will still retweet him,” one user wrote. Another added: “Joey Badass needs a solid project right now. The track list is nothing too crazy, 14 tracks max, all hot and no filler. He also doesn’t need forced commercial singles, that would just be counterproductive . He has his own core audience and that’s enough. Alchemist, Conductor Williams, Dj Premier, Nicolas Craven, Madlib, Roc Marciano and maybe some rockers are blazing a trail if he has stuff like this. That would become an instant classic.
The new single is Joey Badass’ first solo release since 2023. ”.
