I was just talking to my boy Eddie yesterday about how Joey is a real entertaining dude and his Joe Budden TV episodes are generally pretty fun to watch, especially considering there’s rarely a point to them. This one’s no different really, just Joe chilling outside of the club with Drake, but again…fun to watch. Drizzy!
Joey’s one of my favorite MC’s, but this joint never did a whole lot for me. The rhyming is certainly miles better than what you’d hear on similar tracks, but I don’t know why he’d make this song in 2008 when radio airplay should be the last thing he strives for. In any case, here are the new visuals for the first single off his upcoming digital only release on Amalgam, Halfway House, due out on the 28th. Jumpoff!
Here’s a nice little video catching you up to speed with Joe Budden, who’s been one of my favorite MC’s since back when everyone thought he was Rasheed Wallace’s alter ego. He answers the standard interview questions (“what’s your take on hip-hop today,” “who do you want to work with,” etc.) and gives a little shine to an artist he’s putting on named HeartBreak. Padded Room coming September 16th? Let’s hope so…
And if your internet game has been slackin’, here are his two newest joints, speaking on…everything. I was going to wait until all the parts leaked and were combined into one song (since Part 3 should be coming soon) but screw it.
Joe Budden – “Who, Pt. 1”
Joe Budden – “Who, Pt. 2”
There’s waaaaaaay too much truth in these joints.
