Like him or hate him, not many can spit better than Joe.

And please stop saying "Buddens".
His introspective/personal shyt is his best shyt to me, he should never leave that bag. I really really really hate his voice...but I still salute some of his shyt because the lyrics are so good

My problem with Joe is people loved his brand more than the music when they would tell us how much we're missing.

To me, he sounded like all the mixtape rappers from his era.

I wouldn't even put him over Game, even talking about how deep and introspective he is.

3:50 onwards just puts the beat in the grave..
"Ride to the death,
I'll acapella the whole left side of his chest"

You would post a song I, as a non Joe fan, have heard a millions times and alway thought he got ate on--he just had a longer verse.

And that line always been mid, to me.

He has a terrible rap voice it was hard to get into his music .

Over the last two years I’ve been listening to his music more . His voice is really hard to listen to at times breh .

His voice is actually pretty plain. When I think of voices that are hard to listen to, I think of sappy soft voices like Big Sean and Chingy, or flat out irritating voices like Young Thug, sometimes Uzi, etc, basically anybody inspired by post-2008 Wayne who was always squealing and rapping fast about nothing.

DMX and Joe Budden were really the most raw and vulnerable rappers from the eastcoast in my opinion.

Would love to hear what others think.

Dear Angie is and always will be incredible.
