Joey Bada$$ Bodies A Freestyle Over Future’s “Mask Off”

Metro Boomin handles the beat.

With Joey Bada$$‘ sophomore album, AABA, out in a few weeks, the Pro Era leader is making the promotional rounds to get fans hyped. He recently stopped by Power 106’s LA Leakers to drop a brand new freestyle over the beat to Future’s recent single “Mask Off,” which is produced by Metro Boomin.

During his freestyle, Joey name-drops Malcolm X:

No man knows when the time gone come
Every action think about the outcome
Cause I ain’t never outrun no bullet from a gun
Don’t ask Malcolm, ask how come?
Ask any real nigga about some

He also reminisces on his life before he was famous:

But it ain’t always been like this
Remember when we was broke as shit
Save my L’s from next week
My ashes still got a roach in it
I hit it until my finger tips get burnt at the filter tip
Before I learn to take a risk I ain’t even had a pot to piss in
