Joe Budden called NBA YoungBoy's fans a bunch of "young idiots" after they came at him for dissing their hero.
It all started when Joe said that Youngboy's music is straight garbage.
"You ready to tell the truth about NBA YoungBoy? Am I ready to do this? That n*gga is trash," said Joe on his podcast. "He's horrible. He is horrible, he is horrible, he is really, really, really, really, really bad. I don't know him as a person, I'm only speaking about music."
YoungBoy responded with an angry threat, while his fans accused Joe of clout-chasing.
But the rapper-turned-rap pundit said that his brand is bigger than the 24-year-old's.
"I just want to say I’m way bigger than him. Stop this," he said. "You young idiots get fooled by these label metrics and these digital tricks. Would you like me to read you the numbers on YoungBoy’s last six projects? ... The point is you doing a lot for somebody that don’t sell more than 60,000 records. Stop it. it’s not this dominant force that you n*ggas keep trying to make it out to be ... Y’all do the same thing with Brent [Faiyaz]. Y’all do the same thing with all these new n*ggas that y’all like."
Any reaction to Joe's words?
