The Brooklyn native is currently being seen on the Starz network playing the role of Unique in Raising Kanan.

Joey Bada$$ shares “Where I Belong” from his upcoming album 2000. It was 10 years ago when his 1999 mixtape was released. The Brooklyn rapper was most recently seen playing the villain Unique on the Starz show Power Book III: Raising Kanaan from the heavily watched Power franchise. Earlier this year he revealed his new musical plans with the single “Head High.” His third album officially comes out on July 22nd. He has already kicked off his 1999 2000 summer tour of North America which lands in Philadelphia tomorrow night.

The Brooklyn rapper is back in his creative space with three new songs; “The Light,” “No Explanation” and “Shine” which samples Roy Ayers’ “Everybody Loves The Sunshine.” He worked with directors Kerby Jean-Raymond and Levi Turner on the video for “The Light.” Jean-Raymond’s heritage with the voodoo religion are explored and Bada$$ takes part in a ceremony that he connects to rebirth and a deeper connection with his ancestors. The clip ends with him entering a police station in protest. His last album, AMERIKKKAN BADASS from 2017, is being looked at again because of the social unrest messages that are currently in line with Black Lives Matters.
