This n***a Lucas took it way too far on this song.

Joyner Lucas is a helluva rapper, and when he gets extra passionate about a particular topic, he is capable of being an all time great. In “Devil’s Work,” he puts up one of his best performances yet.

Over this instrumental that sounds like a combination of some ‘Meek Mill intro’ and ‘black movie where the protagonist finds out his homie just got shot up’ s**t, Joyner speaks his unadulterated mind, pleading with the LORD to bring back fallen soldiers like XXXTENTACION, Nipsey Hussle and Aaliyah in exchange for individuals like R. Kelly, Tami Lahren and Donald Trump. While the subject-matter behind the song is heinous and a bit wicked, I can’t help but end up being enamored at how focused Joyner’s bars, flows and sentiments are on his raps.

On some real s**t, wishing death on people (Even if you like them) isn’t the way to go… How about you wish food poisoning on them instead?
