Joey Bada$$ Refuses to Be an Opening Act Under Trinidad James

Joey Bada$$ might be young, but he's not shy about speaking his mind. The Brooklyn emcee was supposed to be on the bill for Wiz Khalifa and A$AP Rocky's "Under the Influence" Tour, but he refused to perform as an opening act under Trinidad Jame$. Apparently, the Pro Era member sees himself as an "APEX" rapper, above his XXL Freshman Class of 2013 colleague.

Joey decided to address the situation via his Twitter.

"If I'm under Trinidad Jame$ I'm not doing the Under the Influence Tour. Straight," tweeted Joey. "No disrespect to the man on gold. But I just don't like seeing myself at the bottom. APEX."

The "Under the Influence" Tour will also feature B.o.B., Berner, Chevy Woods, and Smoke DZA.
