Joe Budden unleashed on Drake, slamming the Toronto rap star for mocking him from his “plottttwistttttt” Instagram page.
On Tuesday (February 11) the page, which Drake uses as a dumping ground of sorts, shared an unflattering video of Joe Budden dragging on a cigarette,
The caption both poked fun at Budden while hyping Drake’s upcoming PartyNextDoor collab album: “$$$HITTING MEEEEEE.”

The retired rapper caught wind of the jab and fired back at Drake in a nuclear rant on the latest episode of the “Joe Budden Podcast.”
The former Slaughterhouse MC ripped into his longtime rival, claiming Kendrick Lamar ended his career. He also urged him to retaliate against K. Dot and everyone else who dissed him over the past 12 months.
“Drake, don’t shoot back at me now that you ice cold,” Budden began. “I’m not doing a back-and-forth with a corpse. I wanted to do it when you was lit, it was fun. Don’t go get shot all through the year and then pop up like Bernie at Weekend At Bernie’s wanting to shoot at me now. No, n####. Go spin! Spin the f###### block.”
After questioning if Drake is “crazy,” Joe Budden continued.
“99 n##### done jumped on your ass,” he yelled. “You out smoking hookah in turquoise boots. Don’t post me! Go get your f###### lick back. F###### b####.”
Nonetheless, illustrating their love-hate relationship, Budden insisted, “I still like him. I’m buying that album Friday.”
