It has been a extremely poor state of affairs with lots of accusations going around regarding Joe Budden from inappropriate acts with dogs (basically animal abuse or even bestiality) to toxic abusive relationships with former partners and wife-woman beating. Which Joe Budden has categorically denied, claiming there was a smear campaign against him. Which stands to reason because coming to the end of Joe Budden where Joe Budden may be looking for new investors or business partners, the timing of these allegation were not the best. In fact, it would scare off most investors.
Let's be honest as a former rapper, the toxic abusive relationships and alleged wife-woman beating rumours have plagued Joe Budden for years, but investors aren't expecting a squeaky clean personality. Even investors will know of people who were alledged wife-woman beaters or people in toxic relationships. Charlamagne Tha God has had his own allegations in the woodwork. And Hip Hop is rife with toxic abusive relationships towards both men and women, in fact the entire music industry. Could ad the human race. Unfortunately domestic violence is so common that once people (on both side) admit or do some damage control, investors will take a risk.
However unfortunately alleged acts of bestiality or alleged inappropriate acts with animals is another thing. That is animal abuse, as they are vulnerable creatures that do not have a say, also you can't look at a man or a person the same way. It's a very grave and serious allegation, and even though it's an allegation, it's hard see beyond that, whether people are taking it seriously or in humour, it's class joke. Even in prison they have alleged unacceptable crimes and yeah.....so
Do investors want to be associated with a person where such allegations are swimming around the internet, or used as a butt of every joke. But can anyone sit at the table with such allegations and keep a straight face. 'Dog cookie for the partner?'
It has been over a week since the Joe Budden podcast last aired and a true winner of the 'lets make coins and get paid' war is emerging and it aint Joe Budden. To date Joe Budden last tweet was promoting episode
Joe Budden vs Charlamagne Tha God
At present in terms of the money situation, it seems Charlamagne Tha God is leading. Charlamagne Tha God still is on the Breakfast club, still bringing home the bacon. Joe Budden is launching his own network according to his posts on Instagram. But technically anyone can have a podcast network on YouTube, no disrespect to Joe Budden. It's not that hard.
So I guess we need to watch the space especially with all the allegations Joe Budden and Charlamagne Tha God levelled at each other, plus other internet drama. Has it affected Joe Budden's brand? Time will tell.
These men are millionaires (supposedly but I'm not their accountant, so have proof of their income streams) but it's interesting they too have problems.
What next for Joe Budden and the Joe Budden Podcast.
Despite all the bravado of Joe Budden talking ownerships and throwing shade at Charlamagne Tha God, there has been no announcements so far about where the Joe Budden podcast will be. It seems his co-hosts need a cheque-check to continue. I would have thought that Rory, Mal and Joe Budden could continued on Youtube but it's contracts I guess. It's not that simple. There is also the behind the scenes people - the intern, camera person, sound etc. So I hope Joe Budden finds the worth for his Joe Budden podcast.
A lot is going on in the world at this time, people. so keep safe and take care of yourself and each other.
