Joey Bada$$ - “Christ Conscious” (Official Video)

Although it feels like he’s been around forever, the one-time teenage rap prodigy Joey Bada$$ (who’s still a teenager, BTW) has yet to release an official debut album. That record, the cleverly titled B4.DA.$$ (“before the money,” get it?) is allegedly on its way this fall, and its lead single is called “Christ Conscious.” It’s pretty good! The song finds Joey having fun ad-libbing and unfurling grimey bars about how he won’t stop until he reaches “Christ conscious,” which is either some kind of enlightened state or god-level rap skills — I’m not exactly sure. Either way, the clip ends with Joey ascending into outer space.
