OTHERtone on Beats1 with Joey Bada$$

[steezx]

joey is hungry not cocky. this dude been slept on for too long

[sumayzebecreating]

this interview feels super awkward... Pharrell hardly talked until more than halfway through.
I wish they had more enthusiasm for Joey.
he was trying hard to keep the convos going.

I really don't get why some people are saying this was a bad interview or that Joey is "cocky". Clearly if you're saying that Joey is "cocky" that means that you've just started to listen to his music, which is fine, but he is one of the realest there is, seriously.

I think Pharell didn't talk much at the beginning because he was listening to what Joey had to say, you can tell he kind of recognises himself in Joey and being in his 20s. Now that Joey has a great base of content with a mixtape and an album etc... you can tell he really has evolved as an artist and like he said "before he raped on beats" and now he "learned how to make music". For me he's definitely in today's top 5 with: Kendrick, Cole, Isiah Rashad and I want to say Mac Miller but I'm probably gonna gate hate for that haha...
(note: this is my personal top 5, it's debatable except for Kendrick).

The tension between Joey and Pharrell is real!!!

[michael-gghw]

I already know it's gon be one of the best albums of the year

[AQGOAT]

He released 1999 at 16 and got into Tupac afterwards, damn that's crazy actually.

[wiirules]

Joey seriously making those strides that real hip hop needs! Hope he continues to evolve and create change! Just as he said he got sparked by 2pac he needs to keep the legacy going

[damrko]

Speak what you feel bro, steez always said that

[forever.pushin]

I love these interviews. Pharrell is so respectful towards his guests and Joey is definitely an honored guest here. His whole demeanor and respect and perspectives is amazing.

[PermanentHigh]

That dude at 9:08 face like "Huehuehuehue, I don't know what tf y'all talking bout. I'll never have that kind of money. They bout to repo my Maxima next month if y'all don't say something fire on this interview. Fuck me, right?".

[prodbySvpremeKy]

A legend and a future legend having a conversation about pretty much being great, incredible!

[amirsaf]

Pharrel in 10 years will wish he gave Joey some more respect in this interview.

[JustRealDaTruth]

yo this interview was so awkwardly disturbing. its almost like they didn't wanna interview Joey Badass, like the interview was forced.

[josh]

this interview is so slow and quiet like if they were high in a library

[ProlificPops]

I feel like this is more of a lesson between teacher and student than an interview. The interview didn't really open up until Pharrel started talking. Pharrel was teaching Joey that his music should connect with his interviews just like Pac's music and interviews did. Like you could see the hunger, enthusiasm, and emotion in Pac's interviews and how it all goes back to his music, but it's not exactly there yet for Joey, so Pharrel was pretty much saying you're not at that level yet to diss Pac until you find a true connection with yourself and your music. And that all makes sense since Joey did kinda diss Pac a little while back.

[Dadon]

Its amazing how far Joey is going with his career. Pharrell even knows his music. Inspiring. NY stand up!!!

[laylat]

5:05 That's false. If you ever listened to Conscious artist of any genre, like anything in this world it EVOLVES, and Joey is a conscious rapper. #ConsciousMusic ✊

[yungspawn]

[kdavv]

You can't tell me that Joey don't look like a Tangela from Pokemon lmao

[nm]
