Drake reacted like a narcissistic bytch. And it goes to show how these nikkas feel about u REALLY when u ain’t dikkriding them and praising their every move. Son used to dead ass look up to Joe. I mean the nikka is sending shots at a married woman with 2 kids who he hasnt touched in over a decade on this album. Son need to grow up.

Most celebs are surrounded by yes men so when they hear a real opinion outside of their bubble it has them in shambles. Tale as old as time.

Im not emotional about it nor am I involved in the conflict. I also didnt think it was that long :yeshrug:

I didn’t call you emotional. I said you made a long post about the situation which you said was lame for Drake. Why can’t he respond and he’s the one involved but everyone online can make long posts? I feel like I’m in the Twilight Zone online.

Drake took a L responding to it publicly
But the more I think about the more I think Joe take was off
First off drake is not that old where he needs to distance himself from younger people. Let’s be real, 35 yr old be in the same spaces as 25-30 yr olds for the most part.
And drake does take risks, he does give no name artists a look, he does experiment with different sounds, he does know what the young kids like. None of that is even debatable. It’s how he been relevant for 15 yrs. At some point the PUBLIC needs to make him change , why would he stop doing what’s working until that time. This is a dude who for the most part ain’t on the hood shyt, raps about emotional shyt and getting his feelings hurt and yet ppl still want him to switch up who he obviously is

Hey Drake, none of your fans you are writing this to own a 767 either, and they all live in "modest" houses even more modest than Budden
That part was confirmation that he is not as enlightened as he portrays himself to be. A lot of the people associated or in close proxy to Drake are closer to Joe’s tax bracket and station in life.
Now indirectly you are invalidating the self worth of people who support you in real life.

Is Joe Budden a failed rapper tho? :ohhh:

He had a fanbase back then and he has a fanbase right now

If he dropped right now, today, he'd have ppl tuning in

Compare that to now with rappers who get lots of coverage but drop bricks

He just had less than Drake
He is a failed rapper. He was given a huge budget by Def Jam for his debut album, given features by some of the biggest artists at the time (Busta, Jay) and still flopped.

Then was forced to go underground and build up a smaller fanbase there which really didn’t give him much (fans or money).

Then he decided to join a supergroup (Slaughterhouse) in hopes of fixing this and once again signed to one of the most successful artists in hip hop history (Eminem) and still failed.

I had the same exact thought. People forget how old Jay was making that foolishness.

Drake really is the Millennial Jay-Z :ehh:

I think the younger artists Drake is working with come off way younger than even those dudes Hov was rapping with. Like Yeat is different than those guys

joe was right about how you could say 1000 good things about these artists and never hear a word

The min you have one critique they in they feelings

Dude done bigged up drake so many times

It’s Corny
And this wasn't really a diss this time, just a fair critique and it was out of love. Tells you the type of nikka Drake is.

I'm not even a Drake fan but we should be careful about things like this. Let's not make it automatically bad for older and younger artists to work together

If we go by that logic Charlie Wilson shouldn't have ever been allowed a career resurgence from working with Kanye, Snoop, Tyler The Creator. George Clinton sounded great on To Pimp A Butterfly

When you try to hard to pander to an audience by working with younger acts it can sound clownish yes, but one of hip hops biggest issues is the separation of older/younger generations. Some of the best music is when older and younger work together
Nothing wrong with working with younger artists at all. The problem that does happen is when there’s zero chemistry and it sounds forced.

Eh, fan of some Drake singles but never his overall albums

He will by the stats probably go down as the most popular ever but never the most lyrical not even top 10,20,30 etc

In 2023 I fully believe Joe Budden could defeat Drake in a rap battle and that's sad

I don’t remember joe having a Jay feature

And how could slaughter house be a super group, according to you they’re all failures

All four of them had pretty much the same trajectory

Pump it up remix.

I never said Slaughterhouse was a group of failures.

Joell Ortiz and Crook were never signed to the type of major label deal Joe had (Given the budget Joe had and feature power)

And Royce was blackballed for years because of his beef with Em.

I won’t even go into Joe being aligned with one of the biggest dj’s in New York at the time (Clue) and being part of a rap group with Fab

The shyt is so funny breh. That’s why I keep coming back here. The irony is hilarious

I support Joe too. Been listening to the pod religiously since 2016 and been subscribed to the Patreon since he launched it. He wasn’t necessarily wrong with what he said but Drake wasn’t either. Joe can critique and Drake can respond that’s how things work. People saying Drake bringing up money means Joe struck a nerve when Joe calls everyone brokies and poor, laughs at podcasts failing, saying he’s on top and no one is fukking with him is ironic as hell. Logical fallacies doing the dash online.
