He’ll be over it in a week like everyone else, let’s be real

Celebrities announcing they have Covid don’t hit the same as it did in March when it was shocking lol


Edit:


Before y’all get mad at me for saying Joe Budden isn’t gonna die, let me say I wish son the best.


I forgot that implying Covid wasn’t the end of everyone who catches it was controversial.


pray for him and all lat

Y’all be safe :mjgrin:

You ever stop and consider that maybe it's you that doesn't get it? :heh:


Most of us aren't saying it's the end all, be all; but it's wildly irresponsible to tell people to be treating it as nothing more than a one week flu when it's much longer than that and can have long lasting implications beyond the initial recovery.


Especially when Joe’s dad nearly passed away due to COVID just a few months ago. Whatever tho. Ignorant nikkas gon be ignorant

my dude...you can pay for healthcare out of pocket...I refuse to believe he doesn’t have it...that shyt is not the least bit “likely” at all for someone in his financial position...and you don’t have to be rich neither...holy shyt how old are some of you smh? nikka said he probably doesn’t have a primary physician :mjlol:

btw I don’t fukk with the podcast anymore so this is not some stan shyt...this is just good old-fashioned sense...I retired early and have to pay for my own health insurance as a result...small business owners have to do the same, etc.
I know a decent amount of people that own small businesses, are independent contractors, or just do a bunch of side hustles to live that don't have health insurance. A lot of people that grow up poor don't value going to the hospital that often since we were brought up with the mindset of only hitting the hospital in absolute emergency situations. It's not a given that dude has health insurance. Plus a lot view health insurance as a rip off or waste of money and that they'll come out ahead by just paying when they only have to go. So I wouldn't be totally shocked if Joe didn't have it.

like the assets Spotify wanted in the 360 deal. the culture show and the pull up. he's getting paid more for both than the pod ever paid him and he has been clear about this. to the tune of millions. State of the culture is bankrolled by revolt tv production.

you guys really think dude is stupid and should have took a slave deal. I can't believe nikkaz :wow:

OR Joe was exaggerating how much he was making on those platforms as a negotiating ploy to try to get Spotify to up their offer. The logic him even making more off the Pull Up makes no sense. It's only sponsor as far as I see is Cash App who is sponsoring the pod as well so it's probably one big package. It's airing on youtube only so no TV network is paying him from them. For SOTC it ain't generating near enough ratings for him to be making millions off of that shyt. If that show was such a hit they'd be on every damn week and not filming short ass seasons every couple of months. If the Pull Ups were generating millions why wouldn't they just make the pod as a youtube exclusive or a show on Revolt since it's his most popular property and could turn those "millions" into hundreds of millions considering the volume of episodes they do? Joe was talking out his ass on how much he makes for those other entities. If he was he'd be going way harder just trying to grow those since they're a lot less work according to him.

no he has spoken about those other deals before any negotiations were on and that is a stupid tactic. plus television contracts are not hidden. you realize they have a show with a production budget and the talent is paid well including him to the tune of millions. the state of culture deal was inked when he was hanging out with puffy a lot with a big announcement around the time he left complex...

the pod was supposed to generate most income from their profit share on spotify which was then taken off the table but they still snuck in cash app and got a cheque for it before they left.

if he took all his assets to revolt that would be the same as taking all his assets to spotify... my dude the whole point is diversified income not being enveloped under one massive contract. keep up.

you really over here arguing if joe can afford insurance :laff:

y'all really love knocking Black men... I swear I signed into twitter.

But here’s the thing.. I didn’t say any of that. I said he’d probably be fine like the rest of the celebrities that have caught it and shook it off in a week


Y’all decided that I was somehow saying Covid was a chest cold and something to not be taken serious or whatever lol.. that was y’all narrative, not mine


Edit: covid not hitting the same as it did in March is probably where my post is getting misconstrued and that’s my fault


I’m wasn’t saying Covid is lighter now.. it’s literally the same virus it’s always been lol.. What I was saying was that hearing person XYZ has Covid now isn’t the same as when news was breaking back in March...


Like who hasn’t had the shyt at this point? The rocks family, westside gunn, son who plays Batman... shyt, the entire MLB..I just seen a kardashian bytch laid up in bed talking about she just recovered or something.

A celebrity announcing they have Covid 8 months ago had the world shook.. now, it’s a Thursday..

To shoot this guy some bail, what high profile person (without severe existing medical issues or being crazy old) caught it and died? Herman Cain? :patrice:

No it’s not the death rate is lower than March
by percentage its less because they know how to treat it better and there is more access to testing than there was at the start. However, a thousand ppl dying from this shyt per day should not be downplayed.

The virus isn't going 0-60 in one week killing all the infected, nah, it's prolonged turmoil and suffering. These numbers will catch up, untreated cases that get worse will lead to more deaths because hospitals are reaching capacity again in every region.

I been telling everybody around me, do not fukk with this shyt. Isolate with your ppl as much as you can because it's only going to get worse. But mfs want to play like the US didn't report 90,000 cases yesterday. I'm willing to bet that 75% of this board has preexisting conditions that they may not have known about, and catching COVID with the possibility of also catching the flu is not something most ppl want to fukk with.

the internet
Deaths are a trailing statistics. Cases are spiking up worldwide right now, hospitalizations as well. Death counts sadly rise next/last.

I swear some of y'all buses were shorter :snoop:
medical professionals are saying deaths are down.
it just seems like EVERYBODY is making this political.

You can believe this shyt is real w/o acting like the sky is falling.

no no no no no...you jumping from A to Z with the bold...stop conflating points...that had NOTHING to do with me questioning those other shows being multimillion dollar platforms which is what I disagreed with
