Joe Budden Dissed Drake on New Track

Joe Budden first met Drake in person in 2009, when Drake was a guest on his web series “Joe Budden TV.” On the episode, a nascent Drizzy talks about wanting to stay away from beef. The YouTube description for that video still reads “if u couldn’t tell by now, i support this dude whole heartedly…. as it turns out, he doesn’t plan on dissing any1 anytime soon…” Seven years later, a shortlist of rappers with whom Drake has clashed includes Common, Kendrick Lamar, Meek Mill… and, recently, Budden himself. Budden has now responded with “Making a Murderer (Part 1),” a new track that isn’t meant to fan the flames of the beef, Budden tells Pitchfork, but rather to show Drake what competitive hip-hop is really about. (It also samples the 2009 episode.)
