The Official Joe Budden Podcast Thread

[HARLEM AL]

You using 50 as an example? 50 was signed and hyped up way before his mixtape run. Big problem for 50 was all the beef shyt and even then he had major labels in a bidding war to sign him after he got his name big. Before that though he was already working with Nas and Onyx, including being in that Kill It in The Club single with Onyx. Also him dropping How To Rob and dissing damn near every major NY rapper didn't help his cause either.

So rappers like Trick Daddy and JT Money didn't get the Luke cosign? A lot of Texas rappers got on with the Ghetto Boys cosign. The way it usually worked is somebody would have a big breakthrough regional hit that eventually went national. Once that happened these labels would come through looking for the next act from that region (a lot of times with the cosign of the first act that brokethrough) to try and capitalize. It's the reason Cash Money was on the heels of No Limit, Chingy on the heels of Nelly, JT Money and Trick Daddy after the resurgence of Luke, Twista blew up after Bone (who had the Eazy E cosign) and Cruical Conflict's Hay went nuts. After Death Row's blow up you saw West Coast artists like Celly Cell, E-40 and others get crazy attention. Labels back then were looking for the next trend in hip-hop which lead to a lot of artists getting signed and pushed.

I was 100% there. I'm from the midwest and fukked with music from all regions. The majority of artists from that time usually had to grind to build up the regional following which is the same as now. Once they get noticed it still took some sort of industry cosign to push them through to that next level.

Yeah you dont know wtf you talking about

Joe's blatant bias is becoming unbearable. Ne-yo's story wasn't "clout chasy", shut your dumbass up, Joe.

I'm sure if the story was about Brent Faiyaz he would have no issues with it.

The funniest thing about this segment was just trying to shyt on Neyo and that pod by saying none of his interviews have stuff like this or go viral

Isn’t that the point of doing interviews?

Did anyone else hear Joe say he is thinking about going back to 1 show a week? We’re headed to patreon only if he doesn’t get a deal or some advertising

The funniest part to me Joe was on Reddit agreeing with a poster that a bunch of people were about to eat over Joe mentioning that they might go to one show a week. That shyt was straight crickets.

If Budden or Math Hoffa wanted they could probably take most of Nore's guests. That sloppy drunk, half assed bullshyt is played out. People want to hear decent interviews, they want artists to open up, they want followup questions, and you're getting none of that from Nore. He needs to stop drinking. You got a second chance at success and are gonna fukk it up heavily drinking multiple times a week? Black men past a certain age can't be drinking like that, it will literally kill you. I got no issue with alcohol but there's a difference between enjoying a couple glasses of something nice, and taking shots like a college student.

 

[Menna]

I don’t know why you aren’t close to your family

I think Joe family knows he’s full of shyt and that’s why he’s no close

You can damn near pinpoint every major rappers co-sign from the mid 90s to the 00s

The romanticizing of 90s hiphop on here will forever be hilarious

Joe live with his moms right...

I don't know what episode it was but Joe was lunchin talkin bout J Cole had a chance in a Verzuz against Wale. When he was struggling for songs to name to compete with "No Hands" and dropped "Hit It In The Morning" I damn near fell out of my chair. nikka could barely keep a straight face. I love that song but it's a snoozer and not meant for a Verzuz type environment.

 

[EzekelRAGE]

The funny shyt about them Nore posts is Joe always bigs up Drink Champs. Now Nore on twitter hating on the interview lol. It's also obvious Banks and Joe have a personal relationship, this isnt just some regular publicity run. That's why Banks said "You the first".

I do not think Math could take all of Nores guests. A lot of those cats probably won’t even know who Math is, while they go back with nore for damn near 30 years.

As far as the drinking, the whole concept of the show is Drink champs.

 

[gldnone913]

Apparently Banks not drinking or smoking right now. Why would he go in an environment that is heavy in both?

His counter is to that if he didn’t want to give up the point is Planez with Jeremih.

But that’s not Cole’s lane and you don’t need that lane to win a Verzuz. Just look at how Jada destroyed Fab
