Badda TD

Brooklyn-based rapper Badda TD made a name for himself after racking up huge streaming figures for his track "Picture I Paint" before going on to release his debut EP, 2021's Prince of Flatbush. Born and raised in the Flatbush neighborhood of Brooklyn, Badda TD was a regular face locally while growing up. Discovering music when he was young, he gravitated toward hip-hop with the help of his uncle, and in 2018 released his debut track and video "Got No Time." Followed quickly by "Picture I Paint," Badda TD's streaming figures went through the roof, with the track quickly becoming a viral hit. A string of singles appeared in 2020 before he inked a deal with Epic. In 2021 he released his debut EP, Prince of Flatbush -- a nickname he'd earned after his tireless dedication to his local community -- which saw him collaborating with 42 Dugg, Rowdy Rebel, and Kash Sincere. ~ Rich Wilson
