Consequence On Joe Budden: “The Feud Is Simply Over”

    Joe Budden and Consequence had been feuding for several reasons. The two rappers and reality show participants exchanged barbs and punches over their disagreements. Recently, Consequence explained the status of that feud. 

    “What a difference a year makes,” Consequence says in an interview with Hip-Hop Wired. “The feud is simply over. We mutually squashed it all at Starlet’s [Gentlemen’s Club]. It was an impromptu encounter and it did start with a stare down, but we concluded it with a man-to-man talk. Nothing but G shit.” 

    Consequence also says a collaboration may come “with time,” according to the publication.

    In February 2013, Joe Budden and Consequence were involved in a confrontation that was captured by New York radio station Hot 97. It seemed their feud began over bad blood during the shooting of the reality show Love & Hip Hop, which both emcees participated in at the time.

     

    Their war of words became physical and the two were involved in a pair of scuffles during their Love & Hip Hop reunion special taping. Footage of part of their off-screen scuffle was later released.

    Another part of their feud was taped for VH1. In this part, Tahiry punched Consequence after Cons punched Budden. In March 2013, the model explained why she punched Cons at the time

    “We were basically taking two minutes to walk out because we had two minutes [during Love & Hip Hop’s reunion show taping],” she said at the time. “They were switching the set. We walked right past him. Then out of nowhere, I feel somebody over my head just hit Joey in the head. Joey was then rushed to the other side of the room by like eight security. Consequence was then running back, but they forgot about Tahiry, so I caught a good one.”

    Cons also explained the scuffle once footage was released. “The number one thing is I don’t run from nobody,” he said. “Why would I smack somebody and then run, but stay there to get jumped? I never ran from nothing. Let’s keep that clear. That’s the part [where he said]…that I hit him, Tahiry snuffed me, and then I ran. Nobody ran. I’m not gonna run from Tahiry. Unfortunately, when I smacked him, from what I was told by one of the stylists or production people, when I extended it hit Tahiry. So she reacted and she hit me. And that’s a girl hitting me. And I like Tahiry. Shout out to Tahiry. It felt good.”

    1. At the end of the day they both pulled some sucker shit on the other so it’s only right.

      Joey running up outta no where to snuff Cons while he’s getting into a vehicle with his girl and Con smacking Joe in the head from behind, might be the most pathetic rap beef of last year.

    2. shame that with the handful of great tracks Cons has, I can’t even listen to them anymore without being reminded of his foolery.

      HIPHOPS EMBARRASSING FAR TOO OFTEN.

    3. They say it’s over as if anyone really cared to begin with. ‘Pump it up’ man vs Kanye’s old hype man, how exciting. I’m not impressed

      1. Not Kanye’s old hype man. More like Q Tip’s old right hand man and Kanye’s old ghost writer. Stop with the trashin.

      1. he/she is just a normal person w/ an opinion that helped make these people A-E listers. Oh wait let me guess, you are famous or something yourself. He is right though, reality TV ain’t hip hop.

      2. People get caught up in someone getting a little shine or success, if you go on that gay ass reality show to try and get a little bread you deserve to get made fun of for it. Bill Buckner had a good career in the MLB but everybody remembers him as the biggest choke artist of all-time, people get criticism all the time

    4. this nigga Consequence had to hide for a year from a beef that not only made him look crazy and stupid, but a beef that people got over in like, a week…talkin bout “we cool now”…cant even listen to this dude rap like i used to

    5. im such a big Joe biden fan, when eminem put slaughterhouse together thats the first time i ever heard of him. He’s my favourite in the group yello wolf being my least favorite. it was pretty cool that his ex wife had his back on this one. go on joey keep it G for delaware cause i know u come from there!

    6. Real Talk –

      I hit a nerve didn’t I? I wish I could say it won’t happen again, but then I’d be lying. Just accept defeat and get to that laundry mat before they close.
