Joe Budden has fired back at Peter Rosenberg after the Hot 97 radio host defended Logic after Budden called for his retirement in response to his Ice Cube cover.
Earlier this week, the Joe Budden Podcast host once again expressed his belief that Logic should join him in rap retirement after hearing his singing cover of Cube’s “It Was a Good Day.”
Springing to Logic’s defense, Rosenberg brought up the DMV rapper’s plethora of career accolades and argued that he doesn’t need to heed Budden’s advice.
“Logic has TWO Billboard Number 1 albums … 3 platinum albums, 1 gold album and a nearly diamond single .. sorry @JoeBudden — i love ya..and the ice cube cover was not a great choice .. but he has done way too well in music for you to tell him anything,” the Ebro in the Morning co-host tweeted on Thursday (March 9).
Budden hit back with a brutal comeback, comparing the success of his eponymous podcast to that of Rosenberg’s pioneering Juan Epstein show.
“Love you too Pete but by this ‘logic’, you shouldn’t be telling me anything about podcasting,” he quipped.
The former Slaughterhouse rapper’s rebuttal lit up Twitter, with many fans claiming he “cooked” the radio host.
“Joe up early cooking Rosenberg’s goofy ass for breakfast,” one person replied, while someone else wrote: “Someone post the Ja Morrant gun finger meme for me real quick i can’t find it.”
Peter Rosenberg and Joe Budden’s feud dates back to when the latter was still active as a rapper. During Budden’s 2016 Hot 97 interview that he walked out of, Rosenberg sought credit for setting the New Jersey native up with a studio to launch his podcast — which was called I’ll Name This Podcast Later at the time — but Budden refused.
“Peter’s not getting very much credit for helping a rapper find a studio,” Budden said.
As for Logic, he divided social media with his polarizing “It Was A Good Day” cover, which prompted Joe Budden to plead with him to hang up his mic.
“Logic, I beg of you, I’m pleading with you: please join me in retirement,” he said. “Never step near a recording device again! Throw your phone in the ocean! Be allergic to microphones! Promise your fans nothing! Don’t go to the studio ever again! You are the worst, yo! You are really, really bad!”
Yawn
But he wasn’t telling you how to podcast… he was telling you that Logic, unlike Joey, is successful in music, so maybe shush on the topic who should make music and who shouldn’t.
Budden needs to retire from everything and stop being so damn jealous. Logic has surpassed him by miles at this point. Why he so worried about what Logic’s doing? Go play with your dog some more, Joe.
Lmfao Budden’s podcast gets viewership because of the gossip. juan Ep is dope. I’d rather listen to that shit over Joe’s shit any day.

Budden was a way better rapper than Logic.
Logic is way more successful rapper than Joe. what’s your point?
Even Joe Biden is a better rapper than Joe buden!
Since when has success been the barometer to rate rappers? Everytime a debate with Jay-Z comes up, success doesn’t matter all of a sudden, so which is it?
Because ppl talk about jay z business success in a best rapper of all time convo. Thats different from album sales. Either way, Joe budden is a fake hater who sucks off his own dog
Jay wouldn’t have his business success without album sales though, it goes hand in hand. So it either matters or not, and if success doesn’t matter, then Pete can’t compare Logic to Joe. Joe was a much better rapper.
compare anyone of Logic’s early mixtapes or his first two albums and he cooks Joe Budden lyrically. Logic when he is motivated and hungry is a top 10 caliber rapper. Yeah some of his last few projects have been garbage but his latest alum was a return to form. Joe lyrically to me is overrated. He was the least skilled out of slaughterhouse. Joe is a hater and is a disgusting human being.
I really hate that budden guy, always talking bs.
Firstly he wasn’t telling you how to podcast, although that was just a deflection to dodge to the point being made anyway. Secondly, don’t act like sitting around bitching and moaning about other people is some kind of talent.
LOL when did all these white, 20 year old, Logic d-riders start coming onto HipHopDX!?!? This site has changed! 😂
WORD!🤣 HipHopDX Really Has Changed And Not For The Better… It’s Aight But Not Good….
LOL when did all these white, 20 year old, Logic d-riders start coming onto HipHopDX!?!? This site has changed!
We’re discussing everything except for the real point – is the new Logic song trash? If it is what difference does it make WHO says it?
