Background

edit

Before the release of "ISIS", Joyner Lucas and Logic were involved in an ongoing rivalry. As such, the song marks the end of the issues between the two rappers. In 2017, Lucas told Billboard magazine that his relationship with Logic started to sour during their 2016 Tech N9ne collaboration, "Sriracha".[2] The two had since gone on to take multiple shots at each other, including an incident where Lucas claimed that Logic "can rap" but he "tries to prove that he's black too much for me".[2][3] Billboard noted how, in "ISIS", Logic interpolates Notorious B.I.G.'s "What's Beef" into the chorus and "flips it into talking about the common ground he discovered with Joyner".[2]

Music video

edit

The music video was released alongside the song on May 24, 2019, with Lucas and Logic rapping in uniforms at an army base.[4]
