These are the ones who remained true to their hometown roots and, while wanting to hit it big without "selling out", have consequently failed to adapt to the modern landscape. A music-critic pet peeve of mine is when a writer declares that a new album or song sounds exactly like some classic from the past, such that if you closed your eyes you wouldn’t know the difference. You can always tell the difference between soul-revivalists and a Motown or Stax classic, for example. With Brooklyn rapper Joey Bada$$, though, it’s tempting to say such a thing.

This album has an average beat per minute of 97 BPM (slowest/fastest tempos: 63/172 BPM).

Talk about Joey Bada$$ - B4.DA.$$

Nikohn

My copy is not gate fold. No numbers but says 2nd addition.

Dusar

JB is the true leader of the NYC New new school (two news on purpose there) imo. Too many NYC MC's were chasing the fame and money and didnt have anything remotely east coast about them in either flow or production. For a young kid he's made an amazingly focused album, the first in a long time that just screams "New York" proudly. Album of the year so far for me. Hopefully he's got more in him.

shustrik

Mine has not been hand numbered as it said it was. Also it didn't include a download card despite the sticker on the front saying it was inside. What's the point of doing a supposed 1000 limited release and having some vinyls unmarked and some which say x/1000? There could be 10000 Out there for all we know. I'm a big fan Pro Era but they really fucked this up. Massively disappointed.

Riavay

At first, I also thought that mine was missing the download card, but it was hidden/stuck in one side of the cover. Did you check thoroughly?

Llallayue

I got 774 or 771 kinda hard to read and i got my download card.

Gogul

Thats mine: https://s3.amazonaws.com/pushbullet-uploads/ujAgheLuduS-EvDtMgaWl2txqCsQslUvwUerp32Saf59/IMG_20150223_202615.jpg handnumbered 305/1000 it's on the back upper right side

hardy

It was stated that only the first 1000 copies would be hand-numbered. No information has ever been given concerning the amount of copies pressed.

nadness

It's my understanding that there are 1000 numbered ones, but more than 1000 LPs were pressed. Mine isn't numbered either.

"Hand-written, numbered vinyl of ‪#‎B4DAMONEY‬ are in select stores all over the world. Fans who purchase vinyl with the #4, #7, #47, and #120 win special prizes. If your vinyl has one of these numbers take a photo of the back cover, where we can clearly see the number and upload it to Instagram tagging @jozifbadmon, @proera47 & @cinematicmusicgroup. Include the hashtag ‪#‎b4damoneyvinyl‬. We’ll then contact you with prize details."

Gavidor

Your sound like you're from the label. Can you tell me why mine (and my housemates, and my sisters) have no number or download card? Massively unethical...

Dianazius

nothing like that on my copy.

Chillhunter

Does anyone else have a copy that has "x/1000" written in pen under the barcode on the back?

Araath

Mine is numbered below barcode but had no download card as stated on the sticker.

Clonanau

Walked into a Seattle store yesterday and got 935.

Raniconne

I got 87/1000 and bought it from the Pro Era site on 1/23.

Zeli

Mine appears to be either 59/1000 or 591/1000. Kinda tough to tell with how it's written. Pre-ordered from Amazon also.
