Fresh of admitting that he lied about having eye damage from a solar eclipse, Joey Bada$$ has been accused of delaying his album because of Drake's Honestly, Nevermind LP coming out.

Joey was supposed to drop his album 2000 on Friday, June 17 but something went wrong.

Man I got some terrible news, my album won’t be coming out tonight due to sample clearance issues 🤬. Right now, it’s unclear how long I’ll have to postpone it but my hope is no more than 2 weeks. I wanted to have a new date before I told you guys but it’s out of my control 😞

"Man I got some terrible news, my album won’t be coming out tonight due to sample clearance issues 🤬," tweeted Joey. "Right now, it’s unclear how long I’ll have to postpone it but my hope is no more than 2 weeks. I wanted to have a new date before I told you guys but it’s out of my control."

A lot of folks weren't buying Joey's reason, though.

Nah Joey Bada$$ lying about not having a sample cleared because he found out Drake was dropping the same night as him is way too funny 😭😭
