Joe Budden Reacts to Logic’s “It Was a Good Day” Cover

To all rappers who are looking to hire escorts, fair warning: don’t tell them anything! Joe Budden revealed that his knowledge of how Drake moves comes from frequenting escorts.

“I think most of my Drake intel today comes from my love of escorts,” Budden said. “I’m not trying to be funny.”

He added, “The escorts are ground level to it all. The escorts are the CIA of the subway system.”

While Drake relies on escorts, his former podcast co-host gets direct insight.

Mal is back with more insights into the OVO Camp. On episode 260 of the New Rory and Mal podcast, Mal revealed he contacted Drake to check the temperature.

Mal asked Drake what he felt about Rick Ross’s diss song, “Champagne Moments.” Drake reacted, “He said he was richer than me and I turned it off.”

The remark is in response to the bars:

Look me right in my face, he beginning to shake
Told you niggas, “Stay schemin’”, I predicted my fate
Got more money than you, fuck you want me to say?
Fifty mill’ for the crib, where you want me to stay?

Are we going to shit on Kendrick everytime we perform the record? Nobdoy wants to hear us together unless we dissing Kendrick. That’s where we at right now.’”

Taxstone Slams Joe Budden’s Treatment Of Rory & Mal

Taxstone recently called out Joe Budden for what he viewed as manipulative behavior concerning his treatment of former podcast cohosts Rory and Mal. Moreover, he recently spoke to Complex about the state of hip-hop media and a host of other topics. Furthermore, readers may recall that the former Joe Budden Podcast collaborators blasted Joe after Complex named him the top rap media personality in the game. While their comments aimed to be fair to the list, they couldn’t help but bring up their bad blood when debating whether he deserves the honor. On that note, Taxstone had some words for the Slaughterhouse MC and warned others of his tendencies.

“I think Rory and Mal finally figured out that Joe was a master manipulator,” Taxstone remarked to the publication. “They was suffering from Stockholm Syndrome and Joe manipulates everybody around him. Even them dudes sitting with him now are being manipulated. But you gotta understand some people are alright with manipulation as long as they get something out of it. So I think them dudes know that. But I think they just cool with the situation. Sometimes people don’t got nothing going on in their life. They need to be a part of something.”

Taxstone Sends Shots At Joe Budden

Moreover, he also blasted Troy Ave amid their continuing beef and specifically N.O.R.E. for giving Ave media attention. “It’s fools like the people who interview Troy Ave,” Taxstone expressed. “They interview him ’cause they know he’s gonna talk about me. He has nothing going on … So it’s like the podcast game when I see what was going on. Like with Nore. He was on my podcast. And then for maybe two, three months straight, we was on the phone every day, six in the morning, five in the morning, two in the morning, putting together the ideas for Drink Champs. At first, just summed it up to Nore’s looking for numbers. He don’t care. Like, he’ll sacrifice anything.”

For what it’s worth, Joe Budden responded to criticisms that Taxstone, Rory and Mal, and others threw his way, though he didn’t name any names. “To whom this may concern,” he began on his podcast. “Instead of crtiquing people’s placement on this list, we need more crtiquing on why you’re not on it. To everyone not on it, shut the f**k up. There’s some steps that you n***as have missed. To whom it may concern, stop holding a microphone. It’s certain n***as, y’all can’t speak to me, y’all didn’t do the work yet. You didn’t go to the bookstore. Hire the editors. Get people to help. Invest in the staff. Stop check chasing. Stop doing the bare minimum and expecting that to yield results. You n***as are the bare minimum boys.” For more on this drama and the latest on Taxstone, Joe Budden, and Rory and Mal, return to HNHH.

Rory & Mal React To Joe Budden Being Complex’s Number One Hip-Hop Media Personality

Rory and Mal, formerly of The Joe Budden Podcast, recently reacted indignantly to their former cohost being named Complex‘s number one hip-hop media personality. Moreover, they expressed their thoughts on Budden during the New Rory & Mal podcast, going over Complex‘s whole list. Not only that, but they labeled the Slaughterhouse MC as a “cat burglar” and “thief” in their remarks. While they didn’t trash the publication for their choice, they did have some thoughts on who else should be included. Still, their words suggest that they have an issue with their estranged colleague being so high up.

“The thief!” Mal proclaimed. “The cat burglar. Big integrity … look at the cat burglar staring off into the next house he wants to run in. That’s big cat! Quiet as a mouse.” Then, Rory gave his own take on the matter. “I’m keeping my non-bias the way I have this entire time,” he explained. “I didn’t wanna defend Adam22, nor do I wanna defend this gentleman, but he should be in the Top 5, and that’s based off what Hip Hop media is now. So I’m not sure if I’m giving a compliment right now by saying I think these people should be in the Top 5.”

Rory & Mal Blast Joe Budden After Complex‘s Hip-Hop Media Power Rankings

The trio had a falling out over seemingly financial issues, with Rory being booted from The Joe Budden Podcast after weeks-long debates in 2021. Shortly after, Mal stepped away. In February of last year, Mal opened up about the chance of a reconciliation on The Personal Party podcast. “I don’t respect him at all,” he maintained. “Shake his hand? I’ll shake the room before I shake his hand. That’s just what it is. It’s not even about the business or the money, it’s a lot of money, it’s a lot of money, bro, that me and Rory walked away from. It’s a lot of money that was taken out of our pockets, it’s a lot of money that still to this day, we don’t have no lawyers going after it. Keep it. We got our own bag.”

“But, with that money that we walked away from, with that, what was owed to us that we walked away from, that was also me walking away from a relationship and a chapter of life,” he continued. “Once I walk away, you know, that door never opens again.” With that in mind, a reunion between the three is highly unlikely. Still, they deal in an industry of discourse, and to see a closed door on that is a sad development. Regardless, come back to HNHH for the latest on Rory, Mal, and Joe Budden.
