[QUOTE]NEW YORK (AFP) - For a rapper whose debut single was called Unorthodox, Joey Bada$$ isn't one to accept conventional wisdom. Defying widespread warnings, he proudly stared at the solar eclipse without protection.It didn't turn out to be a great idea. The rapper canceled three shows starting Wednesday (Aug 23) as he complained about his vision.
The 22-year-old Brooklyn rapper on Monday shared on social media that he was gazing into the sky without special glasses as the United States witnessed its first coast-to-coast total eclipse in nearly a century.
"This ain't the first solar eclipse and I'm pretty sure our ancestors ain't have no fancy eyewear. Also pretty sure they ain't all go blind," he tweeted.
But he also said that he was seeing in different colours. He said his three shows - in Cleveland, Chicago and Toronto - were canceled due to "unforeseen circumstances" and hinted that his vision was to blame.
"Seeing double, stacking triple," he tweeted Wednesday, using hip-hop slang for cashing in.[/QUOTE]

Well sometimes people gotta learn the hard way lmao
Obnoxious fool + Hazardous elements = Magnificent consequences
If only the eclipse was powerful enough, it could have been the best IRL idiot cull the likes of which we've never seen

too soon
i have no clue why he tweeted that dumb shit, probably just a weird joke, but i follow him on instagram and his story was him looking at it with the glasses on
so i'm pretty sure the cancellation is unrelated

If he says he's seeing double/triple, looks like he detached his retina (no pun intended)

Knowing Joey he was probably just messing around on social media. He's a pretty fucking clever bloke, at least from what i gain from his lyrics. Seems like something he'd say too.
He's a lot smarter than this if his last album is anything to go by. Might've just been fuckin' around.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

good guess but far from the money, Joey is one of the smartest guys in the scene
i thought it had to be a joke because Joey doesn't seem like a dumb guy but from him retweeting these articles about him needing special glasses and shit I guess it really did happen. This is absurd
