- Social media users didn’t hold back, with comments about the retired rapper’s gameplay.
- Budden took the jokes in stride, responding with humor on Instagram and Twitter.
- The rapper’s amusing reactions kept fans entertained, as he teased a comeback in April.
Joe Budden’s basketball skills—or the lack thereof—recently became the hot topic online. *In a friendly game with his podcast teammates, Budden appeared a bit out of practice.* The retired rapper, known for his musical hits, seemed far from hitting any on the court.
Social media didn’t waste time. Users were quick to mock the ‘Pump It Up’ star. One commenter quipped, ‘Joe Budden hooping is unhinged.’ Others joined in, pointing out how washed he and his crew appeared during the game, adding some humor emojis for effect.
Budden, however, wasn’t fazed. On Instagram Stories, he addressed the playful criticism, saying, ‘You aren’t kind people. Check back in April. It’s go time.’ He even poked fun at his own physical condition, noting, ‘My knees have been cracking all day.’
Meanwhile, Budden took to X with more jokes. He laughed about their performance, calling it ‘the funniest footage ever released.’ Such candid reactions drew even more amusement from fans, giving them something to talk about beyond the missed basketball shots.
In a separate yet equally entertaining drama, Budden’s ongoing feud with fellow New Yorker, 50 Cent, brought another layer of spice. The two artists have been sparring publicly over past grievances, adding fuel to their not-so-friendly rivalry.
50 Cent recently resurrected a controversial clip from 2020, where Budden made some bizarre comments about his pet dog. 50 didn’t mince words, criticizing Budden as needing therapy. He even suggested Budden should register as a sex offender and tagged PETA in a bid to further the drama.
Despite the roasting and the ongoing feud, Budden remains composed, using humor and wit to navigate through the jabs. Fans are watching keenly as he hints at a more spirited return to the court.
Whether on the court or in a social media battle, Budden keeps things lively with humor.
