Joyner Lucas’s upcoming album, Now I’m Busy, is set to be released on streaming services this Friday. With Joyner’s flurry of single releases leading up to the album drop, it feels like I’ve already heard half of it. Just a couple of days before the project’s release, Joyner surprised fans by dropping one more single: “Best For Me,” featuring Jelly Roll.

Joyner Lucas and Jelly Roll make the perfect tandem in “Best For Me.” Both musicians talk about addiction and how it has impacted the people around them, with the former giving vivid details about the things he said to his one friend that had a drug problem (and what that friend said to him). With the song boasting this dramatic, hard-hitting beat, it serves as the perfect backdrop for Jelly Roll to hit us with passionate, stirring vocals and Joyner Lucas to hit us with an impactful, dynamic rap style.

I don’t think there’s a rapper better at making you feel a message they have than Joyner Lucas.
