New York native Joey Bada$$ earned a name for himself earlier this year thanks to his debut mixtape, 1999. Now, the Cinematic Music Group signee is treating fans to a new-old tape, as his Rejex delivers a bunch of tracks that were leftover from his breakout.

Here's what he has to say:

"1999 rejex" is a compilation of tracks that didn't make it to my debut mixtape "1999" (obviously). I decided to put this project together because I have a lot of unreleased material that I didn't want to keep from the ears of my fans and supporters. I also have a couple of tracks on here I did when I was 15 years old ("little rachel", "indubitable", and "silent knight") and I want to show people the progress I've made in a couple of years. The remaining songs ("flowers pt. I", "catharsis", "panty raid", "fantum" and "update") are tracks I dropped prior to the release of '99 as promo only. I look at "rejex" as my more experimental side compared to '99. Putting together these two projects even taught me a lil sumchin about my evolution as an artist and individual. Watch me go from "Joey B4 DA $$" to the "Joey BA DA $$"...... If you know what eye mean.. Haha
