Last week, Yung Miami sparked some drama with Joe Budden after reacting to his 2003 single “Pump It Up” going gold with a string of laughing emojis. This didn’t sit well with Budden, who initially brushed it off but later addressed it on his podcast.
Budden claimed Yung Miami had no right to laugh at his career and asserted that she would rank last if Complex made a list of female rappers. He harshly added, “Every female out there is wiping you down right now.”
He also reminded her that her label reportedly saw no growth in her as an artist and jibed, “Need I remind you that today I hear ‘Pump It Up’ more than I hear you?” This led to a big reaction on social media.
Tia Kemp then weighed in on the feud via Instagram Live, backing Yung Miami. She suggested that Budden’s beef with her stemmed from jealousy over her relationship with Diddy. Kemp speculated, “Yeah I think these men be mad that she had Diddy and they didn’t.”
Kemp’s perspective added a new layer to the ongoing feud, highlighting the possible personal motivations behind Budden’s criticisms. Meanwhile, social media has been buzzing with reactions from fans and critics alike.
Whether it’s professional critique or personal jealousy, the drama between Joe Budden and Yung Miami continues to unfold. Tia Kemp’s take only adds more fuel to the fire, leaving everyone eagerly anticipating the next public exchange.
