Some artists pierce the core of your real life when they spit bars, and Joyner Lucas does just that with his new single “Ridin Solo”. Shot in the streets of the rude boy capital of Kingston, Jamaica, Joyner stresses the problems of life as a new rap cat with realness. The culture clash of visuals and the verses that he drops seem to blend together once the directors, The Motion Family, add their glorious touch to the scenes. Guest star and hot commodity in his own right, Busy Signal, adds that Jamaican flavor to the message.

This song and video represents a milestone for Joyner as it’s a proclamation of a new level of success for the rising MC. Check his words and understand his struggle for success…which isn’t far from reach.

The album, Along Came Joyner, drops early 2015.
