5. WiiiZARD POOLS
What’s better than our own magic?
“WiiiZARD POOLS” is a fun, high-energy track that practically demands you get up and move. JoeJas delivers passionate—almost aggressive—rap verses that spark a visceral reaction, the kind that makes you scrunch your face and bounce with the beat.
Beneath the colorful production and explosive energy lies a surprisingly wholesome message: the magic of childlike wonder. JoeJas uses his intense delivery to remind listeners not to lose sight of the joy, curiosity, and imagination we often leave behind as we grow up. It’s a celebration of innocence, delivered with confidence and edge.
4. Last 108 Ride
JoeJas gives an inspirational song based on a true story.
“Last 108 Ride” is a track rooted in resilience. JoeJas reflects on everything that could’ve derailed his journey—self-doubt, criticism, and deeper personal battles—but reminds us that his passion for music always burned brighter.
The song opens with a surprisingly tender intro, almost ballad-like, before flipping into a confident, energized rap verse. That shift perfectly mirrors the message: things might start soft or uncertain, but determination kicks in and takes over.
With its infectious beat and motivating bars, “Last 108 Ride” doesn’t just tell a story—it makes you feel it. It’s the kind of track that gets you rocking your head and believing in your own comeback story.
3. Push Slow
Slow and steady wins the race.
I love the vibe of this song. The intro offers a deceivingly soft build-up that smoothly transitions into a more upbeat, energetic track. JoeJas does an excellent job of setting himself apart from other rappers—not just with his message, but with how he delivers it. He paints a clear picture of how the slow grind, the consistent hustle, is what’s truly taking him to the top.
His effortless flow rides perfectly over the production, and the song’s pacing makes it an easy, repeat-worthy listen. It’s the kind of track that draws you in quietly, then keeps you hooked with confidence and style.
2. Left Hearted Bandit
A glimpse into the album and JoeJas’ journey
“Left Hearted Bandit” is the lead single from the album, and it makes a powerful first impression. The song dives into JoeJas’s hesitance to open up emotionally, revealing a vulnerability that feels both honest and relatable. It’s a reflection on how people can be so impressionable that their environment and experiences shape their dreams, identities, and worldviews.
The flow is smooth yet commanding, and the production hits hard—giving the track a gritty edge that matches the emotional weight of the lyrics. JoeJas blends introspection and energy in a way that keeps you locked in from start to finish. Simply put, I loved listening to it.
1. A Bandits Intro
Introducing the bandit that’s stealing the show.
“A Bandit’s Intro” kicks off the album with purpose and passion. From the very first second, the sound pulls you in—bold, rhythmic, and full of heart. JoeJas delivers his verses with raw energy, and you can feel the hunger in every bar.
Lyrically, he takes us through his come-up story: the hustle, the setbacks, and the drive that’s pushing him toward greatness. His vocals ride the beat effortlessly, creating a dynamic and motivating opener. More than just an intro, it’s a mission statement that sets the tone for the rest of the album.
