On March 4, 2016, Scott made his television debut in the second season of the hit TV series Mr. Robot
March 4, 2016 was when Joey Bada$$ was announced as part of Mr. Robot’s cast, not when he made his on-screen TV debut. His debut came when Season 2 premiered on July 13, 2016.
Full reasoning
This sentence confuses the casting announcement date with the actual on-screen debut date.
- A March 4, 2016 press release about Mr. Robot says Joey Bada$$ would join the cast as a recurring guest star for Season 2 and would “make his TV debut” in that role. That shows March 4 was the date of the announcement, not the airdate of his performance.
- TVLine reported that Mr. Robot Season 2 premiered on July 13, 2016.
- Revolt then described Joey Bada$$’s acting debut as happening “Last night (July 13)” when the show’s second season debuted.
So the article is wrong to say he made his television debut on March 4, 2016. That was the date he was announced for the role; his debut occurred on July 13, 2016.

- Watch Joey Bada$$ make his acting debut on 'Mr. Robot'
Last night (July 13), the USA series debuted its second season, which saw officially Joey making on-screen acting debut.
He is scheduled to embark on The Dark Aura Tour, with Rapsody and Ab-Soul, who are featured on the album's second lead single, "Still", in support of the album.
This is outdated and inaccurate: Joey Bada$$’s Dark Aura Tour was canceled and did not proceed as scheduled.
Full reasoning
The article describes the tour as if it is still upcoming, but the tour was later canceled.
- XXL reported that Joey Bada$$ had canceled the Dark Aura Tour with Ab-Soul and Rapsody. The article says that on October 1, 2025, it was revealed that the tour “would no longer take place due to unforeseen circumstances.”
- Essence likewise reported that Joey Bada$$ had recently cancelled his Dark Aura Tour with Ab-Soul and Rapsody.
Because the tour was canceled, the present-tense claim that he “is scheduled to embark” on it is no longer accurate.
