It's been quite an eventful weekend for BlocBoy JB. After getting arrested in his hometown of Memphis on the night he was supposed to headline a festival in the city, he was released and showed up to the venue just in time to make his set. He later took to Instagram to reveal why he was arrested. "Police frozed my card took my cars and money," he wrote. "Dey tryna say Ima drug dealer. I bought everything I ever owned off show money. Wat I look like when I get paid for shows."

Now, he returns with his new single, "Don't Be Mad." The rapper hops on a dark, piano-driven beat produced by Real Red who's worked with BlocBoy on numerous occasions. The release of his latest song comes a week after he dropped off his last single, "I Used To."

Quotable Lyrics
I catch an opp lackin', then I give him the blue
Shoppin', that some St Laurent shoes
I fuck your bitch, bag her, pass the hoe to the crew
Aye Flippa, you know what they do
