Joe Budden Responds to Royce Da 5′9″ (Video)

[vodpod id=ExternalVideo.694457&w=425&h=350&fv=]

After Loud chopped it up with Royce, they caught up with Joe Budden to discuss his side of the story. It’s like a big stalemate. Both artists saying “I have no problems but I’ll destroy dude if he brings it”. I honestly just want more music from both of them haha. Be it them battling, them collabing, whatever. I’m loving Bar Exam 2, I can’t wait for the Halfway House mixtape. These are two of my favorite artists spitting. Part 2 after the jump…

  1. [...] About Joe Budden and Royce, even thou battling wouldnt be the grown folks thing to do, I wouldnt mind seeing it.  With both saying “I have no problems but I’ll destroy dude if he brings it” [...]

  2. these videos cant seem to play… can u up it on youtube or some other shit, shake?

  3. they play fine for me. might take a second to show up. but that’s it. i don’t know how to rip off imeem.

  4. Yeah they played just fine. And as much respect that I have for Royce he doesnt want to see Joey in a battle. I would much rather see them on a track together. Joe is Battle-tested and has no problems admitting he has flaws which makes it difficult to really diss him while Royce seems to just scream and loud aggressively when he is battling someone..ie Malcolm X. Both artists are dope but in a battle Royce would get destroyed.

  5. Personally, I think Joe Budden X Royce 5′9″ would be a battle to remember. Lyrically it would be entertaining…
    Although I Forsee, Budden > Royce…

  6. if you can’t play it might think about updating your system and flash

  7. Say his name Royce, say it. I know it’s wrong but I really want to see this beef. Joey is one of the few that could give Royce a challenge in a battle. And as much as I would like to see them collab, I’d rather see them throw a few tracks at each other, and then make up and collab lol.

  8. both of these dudes are acting really stupid. they have no problems with each other. i feel like they deep down want to battle because they know it would be dope. they are smarter than this bullshit.

  9. this was the biggest waste of time i’ve ever watched.. collab already and get it over
    IM COOL WITH HIM HES COOL WITH ME BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT..?

  10. royce is ill but budden would destroy him a collabo would be tight,

  11. joey dont want it wit NICKEL NINE… NICKEL NINE>>>>>>>buddens anyday

  12. what buddens fails to forget is that Royce aint no fuckin bummy ass non battle rapper like mistah fab or ransom… i mean come on how does buddens even look himself in the mirror and feel like he’s that dude when all he did was battle some bummy ass rappers… royce was molded by the best battle rapper on the planet::: Em…. yea that shit against mistah fab was really taken way too far for what it was worth…. buddens is cool but he aint gon win against royce which is why he kept saying in his interview that he lets it slide cuz he know he dont want it with royce cuz royce is ACTUAL REAL competition… somethin buddens aint used to…

  13. joe budden kinda shitted on game and jay….probably two of the biggest names in rap, and who is budden”s”?

  14. Royce would destroy him, maybe not in a freestyle battle, but for studio diss tracks, Im giving it to royce. Budden hasnt really made any impact on the game itself, most niggaz remember his ass as the nigga that did those huge summer hits, pump it up, and focus … and then fell the fuck off. This nigga aint worthy! Keep droppin those mixtapes son, and Royce … Bar Exam 2 is sick sir!

  15. “tear his ass up” he forgot no-homo

  16. BUDDENS>ROYCE
    both are ill though

    and to Megaveli, lol royce hasnt done much for the game.. not syain he aint ill but he hasnt done much

  17. haha this shit is kinda stupid. actin like “lil bebes” if theres no problems then they should K.I.M. at least collab and be done wit it

  18. Royce cant even be put in the same category as Joe

    I cant listen to mr puuummmp it up I gave him a chance and he failed, hes never collabed w/ any ill artists he has no classic mixtape or album, hes never collaborated with real producers , he gets no respect, he complains like an emo bitch and acts like a 5 year old, he cant go to his own hood, hes done way too many garbage tracks like the one with robin thicke and his work ethic is lazy, suddenly he wanna jump in the bandwagon and eat off Royce plate cuz hes grindin come on man

    What the Budden stans dont wanna hear

    Royce Da 5′9″s track with m-phases his tracks with elzhi with 9th wonder his tracks with premier and his track with cormega (small portion of his catalogue) > Budden aka pump pump it ups entire career until he gives up
    its blasphemy to compare pump it up to Royce..

    Oh for the record

    100 underground cats I have on vinyl in my crates > Joe pump it up

    Joe Budden haha what a joke, u kno he bisexual to right?

  19. Why do people call him “Buddens”? Ever since 2000…what the fuck?

    Joe BUDDEN. It’s singular.

    And I have much respect for Joey, The Mood Muzik series shits on a lot of major rappers’ albums. But he’s got nothing for Royce. Especially this new “Don’t Give A Fuck” Royce. Shit, even back in the Bad-Meets-Evil days, Royce would probably tear Joey apart.

  20. I thought I was the only one who sneezes like that.

  21. @ Unxpekted…You my friend are tripping!!!, Budden has two critically classic mixtapes, “Mood Muzik II, Mood Muzik III” which could easily be better than Royce’s entire mixtape catalogue.

    I am a fan of both artists but obviously you have not given Joe Budden a chance because anyone who mentions, “Pump It Up” when mentioning Joey’s music obviously hasn’t heard his mood muzik series. Royce 5′9″ is an ill MC but what does it say about him that he lost a battle to MISTAH F.A.B. Not only did Mistah F.A.B. win that battle but he flamed Royce the fuck up.

    ONE MORE TIME JOE BUDDEN > ROYCE 5′9″

  22. ^^ YOU’RE tripping.

    Did you not hear “Who Got Bodied?” ? Royce lyrically stomped the fuck out of F.A.B.

  23. ^^ YOU’RE tripping.

    Did you not hear “Who Got Bodied?” ? Royce lyrically stomped the fuck out of F.A.B.

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    hes talkin about the battle they had at allhiphop
    cuz f.a.b. won that
    but royce got him in who got bodied.
    those were two seperate things

  24. Ah, I misunderstood. F.A.B. indeed won that battle.

  25. yeah,
    Unxpekted, must be brain dead.
    everything he said is wrong.
    beddens does have classic mixtapes, a damn near clasic album, and padded room is coming so we’ll see soon about that.
    joe’s never collaborated with real producers? i guess just blaze aint real enough for you.
    and those 100 uderground guys in your vinyl crate, joey would probably shit on em.
    and this is not taking nothing away from royce, i really respect what he does and bar exam 2 is incredible, but i just cant stand the thought of somebody shittin on joey like u tryed 2 do.

  26. totally agree with Budden… he edited that shit our of respect for Royce and now Royce won’t let it go like a little bitch…

    Check out:
    http://getyoursorgohome.wordpress.com/

  27. Henri Whitaker let me just not completely smash you out like Joe Buddens career… Let me intellectually explain why I question the validity of any correspondence from you…

    1. You mention the Mistah Fab & Royce battle WITHOUT mentioning that Joe Budden was supposed to battle that night and clearly backed out with bullshit excuses…regardless if you everheard Mistah Fabs music you would probably want to hang yourself its beyond horrible.. Budden in this sense is a bitch for never showing up

    2. You have no knowledge on the song people are mentioning called Who Got Bodied? This song has placed Mistah FAB 6 feet underground and regardless of that battle it proved when it comes to wax rhyme for rhyme written lyrics on beats Mistah FAB has NOTHING for Royce

    3. I decided to dust my weed plates labeled MMII and MMIII and was I wrong these are not shitty mixtapes they are mediocre mixtapes I listened to and found a snoor fest compared to Royces material, almost everytrack and its boring…

    4. There is a reason Nas wanted to sign Royce Da 5′9″ there is a reason Premier do you know who DJ Premier is? He cosigns him as well as many other respected artists, Budden doesnt have that.. Royce is much more versatile.. Buddens can only do that who, talk about the game, talk about his record deal and how its not working.. Nigga Buddens nothing is going to ever work for you because all you do is whine and complain

    5. When you compare artists you need to be up to date, I already forgave you for not knowing about the track Who Got Bodied but have you not heard any of Royce’s material in the past 2 years? He has 2Pacs fury and political side, Biggies swag, and Big L’ underground credibility and grittyness, he has advanced and matured and is at a level he has never been in his career. One of his songs within this past years has more intellectual, harder, and more credible metaphors, multis, cadence and paradoxes to shatter Buddens entire career… He is on another level, right now Bar Exam 2 is raw and very lyrical

    6. Buddens has already buried himself, Royce has dissed him and the disses are too powerful they are like 5-6 bars tops and he just completely destroys him on a lyrical level You need to re-read my previous post because you obviously disregarded everything I had to say about Royce..

    7. Ransom, I dont bite the hand that feeds me.. thats a seperate story but I wont get into that and you know Royce is bisexual right?

    8. I dont think Buddens should have pulled that bitch move of shaking his hand and then trying to get clout by talking about a potential diss, dude you already got buried never dissed back then your trying to build on your career off another niggers plate? Real recognize real and this dudes not real… I really dont think Buddens want to be at a hip hop event bumping in to Royce with MIC, Guilty Simpson, Sean Price, Big Shug, Term and the 100 other cats he runs with (who he is usually around) its not gonna be a good look.. Mr Pump it up rolls with……

    9. You obviously didnt read my last post so here it is

    Royce cant even be put in the same category as Joe

    I cant listen to mr puuummmp it up I gave him a chance and he failed, hes never collabed w/ any ill artists he has no classic mixtape or album, hes never collaborated with real producers , he gets no respect, he complains like an emo bitch and acts like a 5 year old, he cant go to his own hood, hes done way too many garbage tracks like the one with robin thicke and his work ethic is lazy, suddenly he wanna jump in the bandwagon and eat off Royce plate cuz hes grindin come on man

    What the Budden stans dont wanna hear

    its blasphemy to compare pump it up to Royce..

    Oh for the record

    100 underground cats I have on vinyl in my crates > Joe pump it up

    Joe Budden haha what a joke, go to Rock The Bells and tell cats Buddens is hip hop and get ready for a big laughfest

    Enjoy Stans

  28. hes brother got shot u dumb fuck thats why he wasnt there

  29. and i did say earlier that f.a.b got bobied in who got bodied.
    i just said that at the allhiphopbattle royce got beat, am i wrong? honestly, youtube the shit, and royce admitted to losing

  30. 7. Ransom, I dont bite the hand that feeds me.. thats a seperate story but I wont get into that and you know Royce is bisexual right?

    no i did not know ROYCE OR BUDDENS was bisexual?
    they arent, either of em

  31. drinking soda out of a straw is straight New York style homo….

  32. you’re just talkin shit.
    you dont know what you’re even saying

  33. Thats an excuse… point blank period

    nah JaYdAgR8 your right I wasnt pointing that at you… I know he lost he still buried him on wax.. FABs wack

    Joe Buddens is a known bisexual

  34. I think any real hip hop head can agree

    Royce Da 5′9″ > Buddens

    PS Just Blaze?? I think theres more producers than Just Blaze buddy

  35. yeah it’s an excuse…. but a damn good 1. you said it was a bullshit excuse, negative, anybody that has a brother they care about would rather be at his side if he gets shot than bein in a rap battle that doesn’t matter.
    yeah FAB is wack

  36. Joe Buddens is a known bisexual

    Unxpekted DMVs Disciple said this on September 20, 2008 at 12:15 pm

    ^^^^^^^^^^
    Shit that’s news to me….Royce may have to call Gloria 4 some details…

  37. i know that. you said joey’s never worked with real producers and i just named one of the collabos hes done with a “real” producer off the top of my head.

    im not gonna say who’s better because each emcee is better than the other at certain aspects or their craft.

  38. Nah I dont think Royce has to call anyone.. I think Buddens needs to call the morgue and report his career died

    daps Jaydaygr8 I can respect that.. Just Blaze but Royce worked with Primo man, fucking legend plus the others I mentioned hes just alot more respected, you gotta realize outside the blog most real hip hops dont even consider buddens

    on a lyrical battle scale wax wise..

    Royce>Joe Budden

    on a deep poetical side

    Jay Electronica>Joe Budden

    on a music side

    100 underground cats I got on vinyl > Joe Budden

  39. yeah i feel you. primo’s a legend (just blaze will be 2 when it’s all said and done though).
    yeah ill say that as far as like just gettin a beat and goin bonkers on ill give royce the upper hand…
    ill even say you’re right that jay electronica is better than joey… but when joey goes into like storytelling mode (Three Sides To A Story, etc) joey gets the upper hand anyday on almost anybody.

  40. True true

    Anyways you gotta give Royce the shine right now he gave us an album for free!!

    Its a holdiay.. BAR EXAM 2

    and trust me it shit foool lol

  41. ha…
    yeah im bumpin it now

  42. im off subject put that pizza looks nasty

  43. ^^^^^^^^^^
    co-sign…..I only fux wit DiGiorno pizza anyway

  44. glad to see this has brought the budden is wack shit back. for a little while i thought people had stopped sleepin

    personally id listen to budden over royce anyday

  45. btw royce disappointed me by using autotune multiple times on bar exam 2… u think him of all people wouldnt use it

  46. The voice/mic thing Royce used actually made the songs even better. Bar Exam 2 is great & IMO i think Royce is a better rapper/lyricist than Budden

  47. WOAH WOAH WOAH..I understand that some people might think Royce is better than Budden, and thats fine. But to say Budden talks about the same shit and Royce is more versatile than him? WTF!?!?!?!
    All Royce did on Bar Exam 2 was boast, boast some more, and then do some more boasting. Who the fuck wants to listen to that shit for an hour straight?

  48. @ Unxpekted…I appreciate you taking time out of your life to “intellectually explain why you question the validity of any correspondence from Me.” Now allow me reciprocate the gesture.

    1. “Who Got Bodied!?!” was a great RESPONSE record. The keyword in that sentence is “response.” Everyone who saw that battle last year watched Royce lose that battle against Mistah F.A.B. Royce was so embarrassed that he felt it was necessary to retaliate because he was destroyed by a Hyphy Rapper.

    2. “YOU GOT BODIED!?!?!” That was what a fan yelled out immediately after the battle. I am a fan of Royce Da 5′9″ regardless but still I have presence of mind to understand that Royce sat down and wrote a song dedicated at Mistah F.A.B. F.A.B. destroyed him with one verse!!! If FAB goes off the dome and wins, but Royce has to sit down and write a song, FAB wins by default…

    3. You are obviously mistaken and the weed is starting cloud your judgement. *Every track on MM3 is better than every track on BE1. Royce has always been a good writer but he honestly can not compare to JOE BUDDEN.

    4. You continually repeat I haven’t heard, “Who Got Bodied?” I heard the shit but was not impressed. He should have done that shit when MISTAH FAB was lyrically stomping the shit out of him in front of a crowd of 1000 people!!!

    5. Me and you have never had a conversation so there is no way you can claim I am not up to date regarding music, so I forgive you for the personal attacks. I have not had a chance to listen to the entire Bar Exam 2 but I am sure Royce will do have some hot stuff on there.

    6. Royce has been cosigned by the following Eminem, Dj Premier, NaS (I’ll take you word on this…because I believe half of what I see and none of what I hear.) D-12,Trick-Trick, Puff Daddy, Dr.Dre….etc, etc.. Jesus, Allah and Buddah, but at the end of the day he is still unsigned and in the same situation as Joe Budden. All of his co-sign’s haven’t got him anywhere, they are both artists just trying to catch a break and make good music.

    7. RANSOM IS AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN AN UNDER AVERAGE MC, HIS NAME SHOULD NOT EVEN BE BROUGHT UP WHEN TALKING ABOUT RAP MUSIC. Unxpekted do you have first hand knowledge that Joe Budden is Gay/Bisexual because you keep repeating this as if we are supposed to take your word for it. Even if he is a fag, a full blown drag queen, queer, AIDS carrier, whatever you want to call him he is still lyrically better than ROYCE. Personal attacks of an artist are useless because neither you nor I know Joe Budden personally.

    8. They are both grown ass men. If they have a problem and they see each other, then they should handle the problem. (I hate when people start talking about what will happen when people run into each other.) Only two things can happen…

    Scenario A. Joe Budden and Royce see each other. They stop acting like some high school kids and handle their differences like men. shake hands and be on their way.

    Scenario B. Royce meets Joe Budden. Royce proceeds to take some of his anger issues out on Joe Budden. Leaving Joe Budden in a christopher Reeves like position. Or Joe Budden sends Royce to go meet Pac and Biggie so they can co sign him too.

    Or Scenario C (The Suprise Scenario) Joe Budden and Royce Decide To Meet Up and Have The Rumble. Royce Decides To Say Fuck It, He Calls SAIGON who is still mad about the Mobb Deep, Hit and Run Comments. Saigon appears out of no where and beats the shit out of Joe Budden. Royce stays across the street, recording the entire brawl/altercation on a camera for a straight to youtube video all the while laughing hysterically.

    9. At the end of the day in my opinion they are both talented MCs who deserve a shot at making a great album with the right financial backing and support from a label.

    This is just my opinion. I don’t want any E-thugs sending me a virus or any angry emails in all CAPITAL letters. Thanks For Your Cooperation…

  49. Royce Da 5′9″ and Kid Vishis – We Everywhere

    http://nickelnine.com/2008/09/21/royce-da-59-and-kid-vishis-we-everywhere/

    New freestyle that probably didnt make the bar exam 2

  50. Henri Whitaker thinks Mistah FAB is Rakim = cant take him serious

  51. Unxpekted DMVs Disciple = thinks Royce Da 5′9″ > Pac & B.I.G. = Can’t Take Him Serious!!!

    This Is Going To Go On Forever Let’s Agree To Disagree

  52. Buddens is stalling for lines… he’s trying to act diplomatic but he’s slyly planning a pre-emptive attack. We need the whole Rap world’s approval before Joe Budden invades Royce’s area. Too bad too b/c Royce has foul tongue and remember: He’s the Shit Fool!

  53. Alright, I tried to read all of your guys post but I’m a little lazy. first off I’m a big fan of both; Buddens and Royce. As far as them battling goes…I think Royce WOULD take it. Royce has always IMO been the best when it comes to diss RECORDS. I’ve personally never seen Royce be that ill when it comes to a “freestyle battle”, BUT if they did end up getting @ each other it’s gonna be over wax. In scenarios like that Royce has never tooken a lose ( Malcom X, Shit On You, etc.).

    Maybe, MAYBE, if it was a live battle it would be different. Thinking about it though, I’ve never really heard Buddens eat up anyone on a track. Sure you got the Ransom bull shit and what not but even he says most the time, it’s not a diss record just real shit. That’s what Buddens strength is: being real. Royce has the same strength, their both two of the most consistantly REAL artist I’ve ever heard. Royce eats dudes up when it comes to dissrecords though….

    Am I out of the loop or is there any diss records that Buddens has put out? Don’t tell me Last Dayz freestyle, Heart of the city, and shit like that I mean DIRECTED diss records?? (Last Dayz “freestyle” = one of my favorite joints by the way) Enlighten me if there is. BOTH two dope/real/talented artist but royce IMO more versitile and WAY more consistant.

    I can put royce shit on and not want to skip a track. When it comes to Buddens albums, not one where every track was ill.

    Food for thought, You do the dishes..

    Oh and….IM THE SHIT FOOL!!

  54. Anyone got any input^^??? Shake? Anyone lol

    constructive criticism…..
