Beats, Boxing and Mayhem

Joe Budden is going “Back to Back” with another Drake diss in “Wake.” On this round, Budden takes aim at Drake’s legitimacy as an emcee, alluding to the ghostwriting rumors around collaborators PartyNextDoor and Mike Zombie, and the OVO leader’s alleged trend-hopping antics regarding his work with Gucci Mane, Migos and Fetty Wap.

While it remains quiet on Drake’s side, Budden took it a step further with a condescending open letter posted on IG.

The MC’s tho kid, they’ll always be for the culture, we’ll support & champion you as you continue to push the needle and move the genre forward to newly discovered heights, real MC’s can never hate you, we’ll always want tomorrow to be better than yesterday, I see u as that “tomorrow”… I’m proud of that, for I know you’re 1 of us deep down, success never changes that, ask Em & Hov…. But the second your arrogance gets the better of you and you start to believe you’re above the very cloth you’re cut from, the cloth that changed life for your entire lineage, the MC’s will be there to remind you, success or not.
