Joe Budden Says He Doesn’t Do Drugs, Just Had “Drug-Induced Summer”

    With Molly being the drug of choice trending these days, naturally it was a subject of discussion with Joe Budden, who recently spoke out against using the drug.

    Budden admitted to Fox 5 last month that the drug had incredibly harmful effects, and that he barely survived binging on it one summer:

    In an interview with ThisIs50.com, Budden was asked about why he quit the drug. “I don’t do drugs. Period,” said Budden, matter-of-factly.”

    Budden continued, questioning the perception of him as drug user. “That’s the part that throws me for a loop, the Hip Hop industry has never known me to be on drugs, ever. I had a drug-induced summer this past year and everybody’s like, ‘Oh word.’ I’ve been talking about this shit since 2002. It’s nothing new. Some people can function, I’m just dysfunctional and self-destructive, period. So I wouldn’t need anything to add to that.”

    1. Maybe the Molly is to blame for his music getting boring as shit lately. I’m still a fan but the last 3 projects, Loose Quarter/WTOH/No Love Lost were all boring hopefully he snaps outta that funk he’s in sooner then later

    2. Joe Budden = idiot. Everytime he opens his mouth he says something stupid. Chef should smacked his mouth shut.

    3. frech prince? whats dat? Drake is da prince of hip hop. Weezy da king. hip hop is bout YMCMB. swag

    4. Joe seems like a real down to earth dude, i fucks with him…definately know where hes coming from with the self-destructive shit, if u dont connect with what he says probably not gonna like his music lol

    5. Well some of my favorite Budden verses are the ones where I can relate to his addiction.. He made it clear that he had a pill problem so I don’t know what the fuck he’s talking about when he says “The hip hop industry has never known me to be on drugs, ever…” huh?

      1. I got a drug problem, that I ain’t tendin’ to
        Because I got enough problems
        An’ my solution is to stuff problems.
        But if suttin’ goes wrong with that
        Then it’s back to PCP, an’ so long with rap

      2. “At 21 I had a drug problem. At 31, still drugs is a problem.” – Joe Budden on “Truth or Truth”

        He also talked about his drug problems on his verse for “Flip a Bird”

    6. MOUSEY…STOP IT..u BEEN a addict..DUST..DOPE..NOW MOLLY…STOP IT MOUSEY..TELL THE TRUTH..OH YEAH THOSE WHO KNOW BUTTENS KNOW HIM AS MOUSEY..201 STAND UP.

      1. well he did just release an album that has sold over 40k units, what have you done with your life lately?

    7. He’s saying he’s never been on drugs since he’s been in the music industry. All that drugs stuff he was doing was before he got into the music biz. AND he says he’s been talking about his drug past since 2002!!! He’s not rewriting history

      Dumb phucks. Get your comprehension skills up

    8. “buddens career is as flat as manny pacqiuao”

      At least he took the loss like a man. Mayweather is too scared to even fight him.

    9. “well he did just release an album that has sold over 40k units”

      2 Chainz has sold over 500,000 units. I hate to compare, but 40k is pathetic.

    10. Mayne, it’s fukkin spelled “Moli”. As in molecule, since its a chemical. FUCK
