Joey borrowed this instrumental from the Freddie Joachim track also titled “Waves.”
This is the second song released from Joey BadA$$’s first solo project, “1999,” recorded when he was 17 years old. His performance of the song on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon netted the Brooklyn native significant publicity. It was released as a follow-up to his debut video, “Survival Tactics.” The second offering has BadA$$ spitkicking on family, tofu dreams, and having the illest waves in his hood over mellow swelling Rhodes tones and a funky bassline. If you rode out to “Survival Tactics,” cool out, relax and reminisce to this one. The project is being released by SOW the brainchild of Cinematic Music Group and Creative Control.tv
The beat was later sampled by J. Cole in his song “False Prophets”.
This is the first official song from Joey Badass for sale on iTunes along with his single “Enter the Void.”
