It certainly makes sense: match the most divisive rapper right now with the most divisive podcaster, and just watch the cash roll in.
Joe Budden Speaks On Drake’s Profitability
Joe Budden goes off on rappers who say “Joe quit rap” (Drake, Cardi B & y’all)
“I make a million dollars every time I talk about Drake, none of y’all have Drake’s equity, I don’t have to talk about the rest of y’all”

Speaking of that Cardi B beef, one of the things that she brought up against Joe Budden is how he’s a clown in her eyes for speculating on Drake’s alleged $400 million deal with UMG. “Stop being a f***ing hater,” she remarked. “I’ll f***ing tour till I’m 65 if somebody gives me $400M. $400M that you don’t have… Everything that somebody do good, you always hate on it. That’s bad, that’s terrible. You always hating on something.”
Also, Joe Budden’s hot takes on Drake usually extend to his fanbase, too. “If you’re talking to a Drake fan, that don’t mean you’re talking to a hip-hop fan,” he recently posited. Of course, many wildly misinterpreted this statement online as a claim that Drake fans are not hip-hop fans. As Budden and Aubrey prove time and time again, the line between critique and cruel hating is a very thin one on either side.
