Dave East Badness

Dave East Badness

Dave East dropped off six new tracks on Friday to extend his latest opus, Karma 3 with a deluxe edition. The deluxe delivered a few new collaborations alongside major names. Jeezy, Chris Brown, and Herbo appear on the tracklist but dancehall and reggae legend also link up with East on the deluxe. The two team up on “Badness,” a reggae-infused record with an upbeat feel. East’s back in his Playboy bag, detailing Instagram flings and one-night stands while Junior Reid powers through on the hook, singing, “You know where the badness go.”

East has continued to dive deeper into the reggae and dancehall sounds without exiting his comfort zone. The original version of Karma 3 also includes a collaboration with OVO signee and dancehall superstar Popcaan who appears on “Unruly.”

Lyrics

[Intro: Junior Reid & Dave East]
You know the badness go (Where it go?)
You know the badness go (Uh)
You know the badness go (Badness)
You know the badness go
Woi, woah, woah, bah, bah, bah
Woah, oh, on, on
Turn to twelve, yeah
You know we unlock the place (Woah, oh)
And we nuh watch no face
(You know, you know, you know)
You like it, hahaha

[Verse 1: Dave East]
She beggin’ me like, “Daddy can you stay another night?” (I’m out)
This paper waitin’ for me, ma, I gotta make this flight
If I ever did you wrong, I’ma try to make it right (I try)
Your body got me hungry, tryin’ to eat that shit like rice (Hmm)
Buy you anything you want in the store, just name a price (Got it)
Hope I don’t ace out, this life is a game of dice
She climbed on top of me said, “I’m ’bout to change your life”
Once I start ain’t no stoppin’ me, guaranteed we breakin’ night (Night)
We linked up in real life, met her on the ‘Gram
Said she enjoy bein’ single, she ain’t want a man
In the spot drunk, she ain’t ask me if I want to dance (At all)
Pistol on my side if it get live, hope it don’t wanna jam (Bah, bah)
Uh, laid up by the water, I just want a tan (Tan, uh)
I’ve been on the low like I’m a wanted man (I’m low, uh)
All these sticks and drums, I could join a band (Grrah)
Don’t get tricked, most of these bitches look better on the ‘Gram

[Chorus: Junior Reid & Dave East]
Dem gyal nuh wan’ no man
If yuh no badmon no, no (Bad)
Dem gyal ah nuh wan’ no ragman, no, no (Uh)
Dem gyal nuh wan’ no sad man, no, no (You better know it, nigga)
You haffi be a badmon, yeah, yeah (Uh)

[Verse 2: Dave East]
I got up out the projects and I’ve been around the globe (Globe)
Other cities chillin’ with women I didn’t know (What’s up?)
Smokin’, reminiscin’, like, “What if I didn’t blow?”
Thinkin’ about past chicks and the love I didn’t show (My bad)
Sorry love, I planted a seed but it didn’t grow (Nah)
You was never really my speed but I didn’t know (No)
It’s foreign if I’m in it, just chillin’ my fitted low (Skrr)
My man got life, takin’ that trip, I’m so glad I didn’t go
I got her body movin’ (Movin’)
Her body shakin’, I told her I probably die unruly (Unruly)
Mafioso, I’m smokin’ watchin’ the Gotti movie (Gotti)
Shy when I met her, she told me boy I am not a groupie
Diamonds on me drippin’ like I just got up out a Jacuzzi
Four deep, we was dead broke, used to ride in a hooptie (My niggas)
Just know I’m directin’ it so nobody stop in this movie (Nobody)
If you from the bottom and you got it you gotta salute me (Salute)
If not you gotta come shoot me (Boom)
Nigga it’s lit, lightin’ spliff after spliff, we got it polluted (Light up)
Bunch of youth, they just wanna shoot, we probably recruit ’em (Youth dem)
Until the bag on, a badmon, I ain’t gotta prove it (Badmon)
They put that pressure on you, now you gotta do it
I’m watchin’ for the vultures, got her all up on the wall just like a poster (Come here)
Her body start to melt as I get closer (Ooh)
VLone all up in my closet, I’m a loner
I fuck her ’til it’s hard to wake her up, she in a coma (Wake up)
And then Uber back to her owner

[Chorus: Junior Reid & Dave East]
Dem gyal nuh wan’ no man
If yuh no badmon no, no (Bad, bad, bad)
Dem gyal ah nuh wan’ no ragman, no, no (Dem don’t wan’, uh)
Dem gyal nuh wan’ no sad man, no, no (Dem nuh want, uh-huh, dem nuh want, uh-huh)
You haffi be a badmon, yeah, yeah (Right, uh)

[Bridge: Junior Reid & Dave East]
Dis lil’ one seh know ya wrong
Steppin’ on ya face with mi Timberland
Steppin’ on ya face with di Timberland
If you know say man, a simple man
We around the place (Uh)
We nuh watch no face (Uh)
We around the place (No-no)
We nuh watch no face (Uh)
Never you come into my way (Uh)
You know badmon don’t play (Don’t play, uh)
Never you come into my way (My way, uh)
You know badmon don’t play
(Don’t play, don’t play)
Don’t give your life away
Never you come into my way
You know badmon don’t play (Don’t play, uh)
You know badmon don’t stray (You know badmon don’t play, uh)
You know how we ah lock the town (You know badmon don’t play, uh)
How we ah hold it down
So don’t you be no clown
You know how we ah lock the town (Lock it)
How we ah hold it down (Hold it down)
So don’t you be no clown (Clown niggas)
(Don’t be no clown nigga)

[Refrain: Junior Reid]
You know the badness go (Go)

You know the badness go (Go)
You know the badness go
My kind of badness (Go, go)
My kind of badness
You know the badness go
You know the badness go (Uh)

[Verse 3: Dave East]
My kind of badness, Glock with the cartridge
I gotta get this paper, bein’ broke is not an option
We movin’, me and Junior like Malone and Stackton
You can’t believe a word these bitches say, they like to gossip
I had trap scams on Batman, welcome to Gotham
Headshot, change your hair color, Dennis Rodman
I never been scammed but we was slidin’
These niggas like to take pictures like Johnny
Badmon on my timin’

[Refrain: Junior Reid]
You know the badness go (Woah, oh)
You know the badness go
You know the badness go (Woah, oh)
You know the badness go (Turn to twelve)
My kind of badness (Yeah, ayy, ayy)
My kind of badness (Yeah, ayy, ayy)
My kind of badness (Woah)
My kind of badness (Turn to twelve)
