Joe has always had a solid fanbase and even people who don't listen to Budden that much (like me) recognize he is a good rapper. And considering that its now been confirmed that Drake was dissing Joe on No Shopping, it's pretty arrogant to keep insisting Joe is solely dissing Drake to help his career. Its not like he is randomly targeting Drake. Yeah he said that shyt in his podcast but Joe gossips about a lot of muhfukkas on his podcast. Doesn't mean Drake has to get pissy about it and take shots in a song. If Joe is so irrelevant why would Drake get mad off a podcast?
I didnt say joe was irrelevant. I said "he's not known for making great music.."
Which is true. If you see a big thread on joe or if he's in the headlines. It's cause of a skeezer,him getting attacked or him mentioning more prominent nikkas names, 9/10 times.

If he's not built like the great MC's why is he on Mt. Rushmore with them like he belongs? Why they putting scribes he didn't even write on the cans in honor of the craft?

And let's not just chalk this up to the suits as if Drake is just being marketed as this legacy HIP HOP artist against his will, he has very much gone out of his way to vie for rap supremacy in his raps...he's even fainted stepping into shyt completely removed from pop-stardom like the battle circuit.

"I just want to be remembered as somebody who was himself, not a product." - Drake

This is why the track is called afraid....his fear of people seeing him as a product instead of an artist have become reality. Joey is giving him the opportunity to validate himself in the eyes of the core fans...

And you can talk that "he ain't Hip Hop" or act like he doesn't care about all that but he does...This isn't a case where he was gonna be content with doing Will Smith numbers but not getting Jay-Z respect for it...he wanted to have his cake and eat it too.
:ehh:

I agree.

He had no good music just the other day tho did he not?
The only song I ever liked from him was the g-unit big shot diss. But the point is that his music is ineffective and he's never had a run of greatness commercially or mixtape,street run. He's nothing but a rest haven for hoes and hip hop punching bag

Just say, i don't like joe budden breh. Dont try to discredit his catalog cause of the extra bullshyt u just mentioned. Some of yall fukkas seem like yall dont even really like hip hop or real bar spittas. All fukkery aside budden could always rap.

his street run on his early mixtapes with a-team, pharmacy etc is what led to his deal on defjam..1st solo jersey city artist in decades to get a major deal off a underground buzz.

His mood musik series was critically acclaimed as well.

Eminem signed him, he had a gold album and at least 2 well known hit singles in his career.. like i said u dont like him, cool. But dont act like this nikka aint put his work in.
