Joe College always has done his own thing and always will, industry standards be damned. So despite dropping a video for a new freestyle about a week ago, he’s back just a week later. Only instead of a new or even recent joint, he made a video for a song that came out over a year ago. Nonetheless, it’s still timeless and prevalent so the release still works. For Ibn has dual functions inasmuch as it reflects on life around Neptune/Asbury Park (although the sentiments can apply to a town near you,) and also serves as a tribute of sorts to an incarcerated friend, hence the title. Producer Johnny E successfully reworks the beat for DMX’s Slippin’ which is just as effectively somber as it was in 1998. Qwikavelli continues his hot streak as a director and by the looks of things may never slow down, just like his rapping partner in crime. Peep For Ibn after the break.
