Joe Budden Explains Why Diddy Segment Of His Podcast Was Deleted: Watch

by

Joe Budden and company recently addressed the Diddy situation on their podcast, and they had a pretty controversial take on it. They didn’t think they needed to validate people’s disapproval with their own criticisms, which ruffled some feathers online. In fact, it prompted the team to take that segment of their discussion down from social media and other platforms on which they shared it. Now, during the most recent episode of the rapper and media personality’s show, he explained why he felt it necessary to delete their thoughts on it. Overall, it seems like he doesn’t want any legal trouble with Sean Combs, whom he claimed is a fan of their program.

“Oh, man. Well, I did it for legal reasons,” Joe Budden began his breakdown of why he deleted the Diddy segment. “I did it for a myriad of reasons. But, first and foremost, the legal portion. Y’all ain’t about to clip this set up and just attach it to whatever story and narrative you want to attach it to. I been on this here Internet a long time. Before some of y’all was born out there. I know how it goes, and I know how the blog sites work on a slow weekend. And I know what they do from experience because they mostly use me to do it. I don’t be trying to give them nothing, I be in my little hut somewhere, and they go dig something up.

“They say that you responding to something you not responding to, they take one piece and if they think you talking about it, they put some text,” Joe Budden continued. “Two, what if that n***a did all that s**t he’s accused of? Like, in the rumors. Why would I want to inherit that? What if he did some of that s**t? Like, the violent stuff. You saying that. Stop, this ain’t time for your Internet s**t that you do, this is real s**t going on. If some of that is true, then why would you want to inherit that? Sounds like a headache, don’t sound like the risk is worth the reward to me. And three, in the event that some people did not believe all the things that Cassie had to say in that civil suit, I don’t think that last week was a good time.

“[Doesn’t] seem like something a responsible podcast could do,” he concluded. “Fourth…. there’s a bunch, I could do this all day long! That n***a listens to this podcast! It means that if you have never been on the other side of accusations and stories being put out about you, and now having to hear the news cycle of people that you know and how they report on it, there’s a responsibility that comes with that. Regardless, the Internet- like I said- has the luxury of forming an opinion. I think that n***a did it, I think he didn’t do it. Whatever you think. But right this second, I’ll speak for me, I don’t have proof.” For more news and the latest updates on Joe Budden and Diddy, stick around on HNHH.

Stephen A Smith Defends Drake Amid Joe Budden Feud

by

Stephen A. Smith says that Drake has ‘every right” to defend himself amid his ongoing feud with Joe Budden. Addressing the dispute on his podcast on YouTube, Tuesday, Smith explained that Drake is at the top of the game, following the release of For All The Dogs. Despite understanding Drake’s position, Smith did admit he may have taken his response too far.

He explained: “He didn’t have to go that far with Joe Budden than the first class occasion. That was kind of low. But obviously they got a rivalry, they got something going on and it’s messing with Drake and he felt the need to speak up and defend himself or whatever the case may be. You come out with a new album for the first time in a while after people have been clamoring for you to come out with an album and first thing you hear is a criticism from a guy that you’ve heard criticism from before.”

He further added: “Drakе statistically, numbеrs wisе, dollars wisе, is clеarly on anothеr lеvеl. It’s just that simple. Drake is spеaking up for himsеlf which hе has еvеry right to do.” Smith also noted that he has personal experience within his own industry that gives him sympathy for Drake’s actions. “There’s some cats in my industry. Oh, I’m itching,” he revealed. “I’m scratching preventing myself from going at their asses. Really, I am. Because I’m up here in this industry and I don’t need to go down there. But I’m tempted because that’s where I’m from and I know that lane and I really really really want to. I really do.” From there, he explained that he has friends and loved ones who “expect better” from him. “I understand exactly where Drake is coming from,” he added.

Lil Yachty Addresses Drake Music Video Leaks: “They Were In Sniper Position”

by

Drake and Lil Yachty have such an allure around them that people secretly approach them as if they were part of a covert special ops team to get a scoop on them. At least, that’s how the Atlanta artist sees it, as he recently explained to his co-host MitchGoneMad on the A Safe Place podcast. Moreover, Yachty spoke on a clip from an eagle-eyed that went viral recently, in which he captured the two MCs filming a music video in the woods. In fact, one of the bars from the shoot mentions A$AP Rocky, which further raised interest in seeing what was going on. From Lil Boat’s perspective, though, it was just downright creepy to have a die-hard find them like that.

“We were in the middle of bats**t nowhere, and it was like 3 o’clock in the morning,” Lil Yachty remarked around the 4:25 mark of the video below. “I mean, in retrospect, you would assume how was anyone even around in the woods by a lake? Drake has just like these *nsane fans who follow him everywhere he goes. They were in sniper position. If somebody really wanted to do something, easily they could’ve took a headshot.”

Furthermore, the Let’s Start Here. creative elaborated on all that the fan must’ve done to dodge the 6 God’s infamously stringent security. It seems innocuous to us regular viewers, but to artists, the fact that they got so close is understandably frightening. What’s more is that this isn’t the only exciting collaborative music video Drake has in the works. There’s another with Cole Bennett of Lyrical Lemonade on the way. As if this hype wasn’t enough, Lil Yachty also spoke on what to expect from his friend’s upcoming For All The Dogs album recently.

“It has the most, I would say like the most ‘performance’ album he’ll have, as far as like energy,” he explained. “I think some of the best Drake verses that I ever heard are on this album. Some of the verses I’m just like, ‘Bruh, what’s wrong with you?’ You know what I’m saying? People gonna have a lot to say about some of his topics on this album. And I don’t think he does it on purpose, I think it’s just him- he just has a real… I will say, he deals with some controversial things.” On that note, log back into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Drake and Lil Yachty.
