Looks like Joey Bada$$ is the latest to respond to a verse that didn't really warrant all that much talk in the first place. You had to expect this, though. Other than A$AP Rocky, no other rapper has been held up as the return of New York hip-hop more than Joey, and his response to Kendrick Lamar's "Control" verse, "Killuminati Pt. 2" is one of the better ones out there.
