Joe Budden Calls Drake a ‘Bi—‘ Following Universal Music Group Lawsuit Dismissal: ‘It Was Finally Confirmed’
Joe Budden added another chapter to his feud with Drake earlier this month, when he called the 6 God a “bi—” after a federal judge tossed his defamation lawsuit against Universal Music Group.
“The Drake news broke about the lawsuit,” Budden said during a recent episode of The Joe Budden Podcast. “To me, it’s not that important. I was never one that believed that was going to go a different way.”
Budden then interrupted Marc Lamont Hill’s review of the lawsuit to give a summed-up version of how he viewed the proceedings.
“For the people that missed it, yesterday evening, somewhere around 6 or 7 o’clock, it was finally confirmed,” he said. “The news broke that Drake’s a bi—.”
The rapper-turned-podcaster continued: “The same sh– that I told y’all 11 months ago rang true yesterday at around 6 o’clock. Some tweet was going around that said Drake lost the n—a way and the white way. That was a good one. And people just started having fun with this.”
Essentially, a federal judge didn’t believe Kendrick Lamar was truly labeling Drake as a pedophile in diss tracks like “Not Like Us.” The judge looked at the heated back-and-forth as a “war of words” and said some of the subsequent lawsuit tied to the battle was “logically incoherent.”
Budden also trolled Drake with a post to his IG Story following the lawsuit ruling, as he posted a photo of Drake looking a bit fatigued.
Even back in February, Drake had some fun at Budden’s expense when posting a video of him getting out of a car on his PlotTwist burner Instagram account.
Budden fired back, calling Drizzy a “corpse.” “Drake, don’t shoot at me now that you’re ice cold,” he replied. “I’m not doing the back and forth with a corpse… Don’t go get shot all year and then pop up like Bernie in Weekend at Bernie’s wanting to shoot at me now.”
