The Official Joe Budden Podcast Thread

[Nagarjuna]

He’s a “manager”, which is about as non-talent as it gets in the music industry. Dude is a clown

in case y’all didn’t know what he looked like


all you need to know

this explains everything.

Imagine taking anything this guy says seriously

Correct, just wasn’t organized at all. I get you’re not gonna start at 8p on the dot, but to begin at 8:45p and then rush out at 10:45 or whatever because the venue is forcing you to end is unacceptable to me.

And we all know that they kinda make fun of themselves, but even the intro video and microphones weren’t working correctly when they finally did start. Was there no sound check or anything earlier??

Then they randomly took a break after an hour to show a video, but just felt kinda weird that they took a break at all. There was nothing extra to the show, no time for fan interaction, they did the awkward “Do You Still Got It” segment where they bring a couple and two single people on stage to hit on each other. Then when they did “For the Love of Mal” game show, they brought on Jada Stevens for 5 min...and it seemed like whatever money in the budget (that wasn’t going in their pockets) went to her for that limited time.

The show had very little production value - which is fine - but because of that, the show should provide more. Otherwise, what’s the point of doing a live podcast...other than to charge people $90 to look at you for a couple hours, and charge even more to those who do the meet & greet.

This was a one-time hometown show, in a big venue...but did nothing to make it feel that way. At the end joe was like, “usually we do questions, a performance, bla bla...but we’re being kicked out and this is a prestigious venue...” OK, in that case why start so late, and/or why even choose that venue at all if it’s not the right environment?

anyway, I was glad the wife gifted it for us and glad I got to see it live...but if joe wants to talk about live performances having room for improvement, he needs to watch his own live podcast, at least the NY one.

It was dope when they came to Dallas

Hold up this the dude that was flying MAL out to LA

Damn so that Justice dude looks as suspect as he sounds. He ruined this episode. Totally reminds me of conversations with my younger nephews about life in general ...

Justice is one of those yungins who was raised off the internet and not OGs. He got all his music history from Complex lists and headlines. He doesn't know how and when to apply real world logic. He reads one Complex list and now he feels he's an expert.

And now he's at the age where he dismisses anybody telling him otherwise as not being "progressive" or "stuck in their ways," all because he grew up in a fake world with no standards.

Similar to Akademiks, all he knows how to do is throw out talking points with little to no support. Basically they're the ones who give yungins a bad name and validify the Old Heads points.

I never heard this Justice nikka but he lost me when he compared Summer's performance to how the Temptations perform . It was going downhill before that but hands came off the wheel right there .

 

[SnowflakesByTheOZ]

First episode that I didn't finish and don't plan to. That Justice clown is just insufferable

EDIT : Wttf is he even wearing

 

[Kidd Dibiase]

There’s an entire mini series that shows The Temptations didnt just stand in one spot and sing. Im willing to bet the current Temptations dont perform like that.

You would win money because even in 2019 they move around and definitely aint just patting their leg. They do more in 30 seconds than she does for an hour

Great review. Told my boy years when he first started doing this live shows, it ain’t gonna be as good as the edits make it look.

Joe Budden’s career throughout has been filled with wins that if he didn’t cut corners they be even bigger wins.

You got people paying with their hard earned money for these half effort experiences and he doesn’t even seem to mind.

Pay for extra staff to set up the show and stage properly and prep the show to fit a live audience.

Just a straight cash grab

Exactly. Couldn't have put it better

 

[krackdagawd]

Lol y’all be so upset with opinions that don’t mirror yours. It’s kinda a societal problem that I’ve recently noticed. If someone’s thoughts or opinions on literally meaningless shyt doesn’t mirror yours exactly, y’all get extremely emotional about it


Like fam, it’s okay to disagree


And with that said, having a heated debate over summer walker is insane

Of course you got the cape on you look just like that frail fakkit

Hold up this clown Justice literally just said "I'm all for Black Mediocrity. Why everything we do gotta be excellent? I want to be able to put out some ight sh*t and it sell out too."

Ladies and gentlemen, that is why the culture as a whole is so terrible now. It's cool to not have standards as long as you "get the bag." The lack of pride and self-respect is appalling
