The era of Joyner Lucas has officially begun. After building a reputation for elite lyricism through tracks like “Backwords” and “Ross Capicchioni,” Lucas finally delivers his debut album 508-507-2209.
The Atlantic Records artist’s first LP features 16 tracks with guest appearances by Mystikal, Snoh Aalegra and Stefflon Don. The album includes the powerful single “I’m Sorry,” which has racked up over 8 million views on YouTube.
“The project is literally a mixture of everything,” Lucas told HipHopDX. “Everything is on there. A little bit of everything on there. There’s no really outside influences on what it should be. This is all from the mind of me and what I wanted to put out. Again, that’s really for the people to listen to and give me feedback. There’s lot of storytelling records on here.”

Real Hip Hop!
Keep it 100 sounds a little like an “emitation” and the album was delayed due to samples clearing, so i dont know about no influence from outside sources.but Joyner Lucas has a lot of lyrical talent and the game needs that. Plus hes local to me in the 508, so of course i mess with it
I think he means that there were no outside sources telling him what he had to make. Basically that he made what felt right rather than catering to outsiders.
Dope album!
Been listening to Joyner for a long time, glad to see he’s on and still making amazing music.
People should be supporting this music. ‘I’m sorry’ best hip hop song of the last 10 years in my opinion
EVERYONE is influenced by something in life wether its music a movie artwork words spoken to you by someone you respect
hands down best album so far this year.
