Joe Budden has continued his tirade in opposition to Logic by begging him to retire from music.
During the newest episode of The Joe Budden Podcast, the host advised the Maryland rapper to “never step near a recording device again” following his divisive singing cowl of Ice Cube’s “It Was a Good Day.”
Budden’s feedback comply with varied jabs through the years, together with calling Logic “one of the worst rappers to ever grace a microphone.”
“Logic, I hate to continue to make a career at your expense,” he started. “I don’t hate it, truly. I’m glad that I’ve just a little checklist of you that I get to — [laughs] that’s horrible to say. One day I’m gonna develop up.
“Logic, I beg of you, I’m pleading with you: please join me in retirement. Never step near a recording device again! Throw your phone in the ocean! Be allergic to microphones! Promise your fans nothing! Don’t go to the studio ever again! You are the worst, yo! You are really, really bad!”
He continued: “And then when we think he can’t get any worse, you have the bright idea of doing an Ice Cube flip.”
The crew then pressed play on Logic’s aforementioned “It Was a Good Day” cowl, with Joe Budden remarking: “This is the unsauce-iest band I’ve ever seen. Look at this band. Who asked for this folk version of this song? Oh my God.”
The former Slaughterhouse MC and his co-hosts abruptly stopped the music when Logic sang the N-word. “Throw the flag! Is he Black? Is he allowed to say ‘n-gga’? Who gave him that pass?” one requested.
“Logic says that he’s half-Black, [in a lot of his records] and in a lot of his interviews, and anywhere that he gets the chance,” Budden defined. “Logic says that his dad is Black. He hasn’t seen his dad. He has no concept, he simply noticed a pair photos, heard on the household reunion, ‘You know your dad Black, right?’ He heard that from the n-ggas within the hood.
“But listen, I don’t want them to think that I’m race-baiting here. I am not. Let me make my problem with Logic very clear, because people be confused. Logic is just not himself. I just think that Logic should be himself. He panders to the Black community every other second. Well, that’s the problem with panders, is that they always gotta find something new to pander to.”
Joe Budden went on to clarify that he’s had a difficulty with Logic since his 2017 hit single “1-800-273-8255,” which was named after the earlier American National Suicide Prevention Lifeline quantity.
“I had a beef with him since he did that 1-800 mental health number shit,” he stated. “I assumed that was disgusting, however I may have been fallacious. But ever since then, all of that Martin Luther King, ‘We Have a Dream,’ freedom fighter speech shit he be attempting to do, I don’t purchase it. Now, I may be fallacious in that.
“I don’t know the place to start with why I don’t purchase it. I believe that if in case you have to take action a lot pandering to make somebody imagine it, then I believe you’re attempting to make your self imagine it.
“And if you’re trying to make yourself believe it, then I think that maybe you had trouble with identification growing up. And if you had trouble with identification growing up, then I think that stems from somewhere like a lack of a parent presence, or somewhere else.”
He added: “But you weren’t born with that, you got that from somewhere. So him telling me his dad is Black, that doesn’t really say nothing to me.”
