Jay Electronica and Joe Budden engaged in some lightweight Twitter beef on Tuesday (March 17) after the podcast host roasted Electronica for letting JAY-Z wash him on A Written Testimony. Electronica’s response was, “i never heard your albums bro. may Allah bless your career as a journalist.”
As Twitter exploded with reactions to their exchange, a video surfaced of Budden and Electronica in happier times, proving the Roc Nation artist was once a fan of the Slaughterhouse MC. In the clip, The Breakfast Club co-host Angela Yee interviewed both MCs backstage at Budden’s show.
“I always knew who Joe Budden was, but the first time I ever met him was with Santos,” he said. “He had good energy. But I fucks with him as an MC because he ain’t on no pretend shit. He’s honest about his life … he a real nigga and he don’t give a fuck, so I like that.”
The interview is at least nine years old as Yee asked Budden, “Did Slaughterhouse sign to Shady Records yet?” Budden let Electronica answer, “We have a project together that we signed to Shady with,” to which Budden said, “Ooooh, bailed me out. Thanks Jay.”
Jay Electronica Fires Back After Joe Budden Says JAY-Z ‘Washed’ Him On His Own Album
Slaughterhouse later went on to sign with Eminem’s imprint around 2011.
Electronica finally dropped his debut album last week, 10 years after signing with Roc Nation. The 10-track project features a massive contribution from Hov as well as Travis Scott and The-Dream.
Check it out below.
So Jay-Z moved like 20k records 1st week
That ALBUM IS PLAYED OUT TRASH.. JAY Z VERSE WAS THE HARDEST SHIT ON THE ALBUM
You obviously wasn’t listening.
Tbh I listened once to the album. The productions and mixes are horrible. This dude is lazy and will never enter the top 100 list of best rapper of all time. After 10 years you come up with this?…
I get what your saying but this isn’t an album you can listen to once. He has so many complex lines that you cannot possibly grasp everything after one listen. If you are.looking for a club album to turn up with your friends to, this ain’t it. This is some thought provocing shit. Plus, he produced the whole album himself minus a couple songs. Compared to a migos song, yeah it wasn’t mixed as much but it definitely sounds more authentic. When. You have a migos song, it sounds so artificial that they could never perform any of their songs live the same as it is on the album. This album focused more on the lyricism and symbolism then it did sonically.
No complex lime whatsoever. It’s all Nation of Islam hate speech bullshit. LOL. Fuck this clown. Jay Z killed it though.
You do no the NOI has been deeply entrenched in hip hop since its inception
Yes. They were deeply entrenched in preaching segregation, bigotry and having Malcolm X killed as well. What is your point? I can’t name one NOI rapper of relevance other than this cuck. The white man was created in a lab. The moon was formed when a space ship hit the earth and broke off a chunk of it. Get audits at Scientology churches. L. Ron Hubbard GF some great ideas. Those are some of the official “teachings” of NOI. Dummy.
You sound ignorant
You sound hurt. And racist, ignorant, and white
One of Those ppl he was referring to must be you. Libraries were built for ppl like you. Find you one, and get lost in it
Production was actually flawless sweetheart lol
Jay Electronica is overrated as fuck !! Just another pretentious rapper who can’t feel himself cause he’s on some weirdo mystical and political bullshit. I’d rather by a book written by a certified anthropologist or political science teacher than listening to a rapper pretending to give me some deep knowledge or sway me about this world and the humans in it. FOH! Ain’t no rapper is goin to school me about life and how my thinking process must be in this modern society. The only thing Jay Electronica succeeded in his life was impregnating this bitch Erykah Badu a decade ago but who turns out to look like a fuckin homeless crackhead with her fucked up looks.
