Joe Budden received a gold plaque from the RIAA for his 2003 single, “Pump It Up,” earlier this week. Instead of joining the celebration, Yung Miami took to social media to mock the achievement with a series of laughing emojis.
Joe Budden didn’t react instantly. He chose to wait, posting, “It would be too easy. Maybe tmw lol.” Yung Miami countered by calling him a bully and accusing him of laughing at others’ accomplishments. She claimed she was giving him a taste of his own medicine.
Budden has now responded directly on his podcast. He made it clear that he didn’t plan to disrespect Yung Miami personally but emphasized that she would be “dead last” on a list of the best female rappers.
This exchange follows Yung Miami’s revelation on her podcast that her label had expressed disappointment in her growth as an artist, which explains why she hasn’t released new music recently.
The banter between Budden and Yung Miami has people talking. Both have their supporters and critics, and the drama has certainly stirred up the music community.
It’s a clash of personalities and opinions, with both Joe Budden and Yung Miami standing firm in their views. Only time will tell how this feud will evolve, but for now, it has everyone buzzing.
