Upstate NY Rhyme Capo B.A. Badd is “100” on new single. Virginia beatsmith Sypooda (Ab-Soul, Daylyt, Grafh) punctuates the track with the echoed tinkles of a piano that sounds like it originated in a prohibition era drug-spot and a booming kick so massive that it almost distorts. Gruff voiced everyman Badd spits lovely on his street hustle to everyday life evolution as he only keeps solid one’s around him.
“100” is the first leak from his forthcoming Painted In Hunger LP to drop shortly via B.A.’s own E.B.E. Lifestyle LLC Imprint. The album is also fully Produced by Sypooda who flew to the emcees Buffalo, NY recording spot to cook up in person.
Painted In Hunger will be B.A. Badd’s first non single since 2020’s Really HIM EP (with producer Reallyhiiim) and 2019’s Everybody Eats LP (which featured appearances from Conway The Machine, Rome Streetz and RIM among others).
Speaking on the new project the emcee revealed “there’s a lot of growth from my last project to this one. My other projects were very grimy and hard-hitting. I’ve grown as a man since then, experiencing fatherhood so this is probably my most personal work. I tackle subjects including race, family, betrayal and love.”
