Brooklyn rap heavyweight Joey Bada$$ kicks off the New Year in style with his latest track, “The Ruler’s Back,” paired with a nostalgic, VHS-style music video. Directed by Waqas Ghani, the visual captures Joey showcasing his lyrical prowess in a laid-back yet confident manner.
Produced by Conductor Williams, the track features a soulful loop that sets the tone for Joey’s sharp, introspective bars. From a luxurious Maybach SUV parked outside his serene countryside home to clever wordplay like “Moved out the city, copped the house in the sticks / Couple acres, couple whips, whole lotta blicks,” the song reinforces Joey’s evolution and self-assured presence in hip-hop.
This marks Joey Bada$$’s first release since his September collaboration, “Tell Me,” featuring Chloe. “The Ruler’s Back” is now available on all streaming platforms and adds another layer to his already dynamic artistry.
Stay tuned for more updates as Joey Bada$$ continues his 2025 campaign.
