The rapper and broadcaster said he was retired from music earlier this year

Joe Budden and Eminem

Joe Budden has responded to two disses Eminem made about him on his new album ‘Kamikaze‘.

The rapper-turned-broadcaster was previously a member of hip-hop group Slaughterhouse with Royce da 5’9″, Joell Ortiz, and Crooked I, as well as performing as a solo artist. He hasn’t released any music since 2016’s ‘Rage & The Machine‘ album and announced he had retired from music earlier this year.

Last year, Budden described Eminem’s song ‘Untouchable’ as “trash”, adding it was “one of the worst songs [he’d] ever heard.” When Eminem released ‘Kamikaze’ last week (August 31), he called out Budden on two tracks.

On ‘The Ringer’, he rapped: “I’m sorry, wait, what’s your talent? Oh, critiquin’ / My talent? Oh, bitch, I don’t know who the fuck y’all are.” Later, on ‘Fall’, he added: “Somebody tell Budden before I snap, he better fasten it/Or have his body baggage zipped/The closest thing he’s had to hits is smacking bitches.”

Budden has now responded on his podcast, directly addressing the Detroit rapper in the latest episode. “I heard the album and because I don’t think you know all the members that were in the group, I don’t really think you know our history,” he said. “Let me tell you what Joe Budden has thought this entire time. I’ve been better than you this entire fucking decade!”
