Cardi B Response To Joe Budden’s Sorry Reply: ‘you Have Changed Your Tone With Me’.
Cardi B has responded to Joe Budden’s recent apology, highlighting that the media personality has “changed” his “tone” towards her.
On Saturday (July 20), the “Bodak Yellow” rapper took to X (formerly Twitter) and quoted a video of Budden apologizing.
“I love Joe, but he has changed his tone with me a lot over the past three years, whether about music or personal matters,” she wrote. “Like when I was going through a bad marriage in December, he went on his platform and tried to make it about someone else and what they were doing.
“I know criticism comes with the territory, but sometimes the narratives you guys decide to push are extremely toxic. It’s all love, but I’ll see you soon.”In Budden’s video, he said: “Cardi is on my list of people I will love no matter what. If I ever made a joke that offended Cardi B, I apologize.”
Earlier this week, Cardi B criticized Budden for his comments about her career, as well as his ongoing critiques of Drake.The tension escalated when the former Slaughterhouse rapper claimed on his self-titled podcast that Cardi would never release a follow-up to her 2018 debut album, Invasion of Privacy.
“We’re never getting another album. I’m standing on that […] Cardi has something coming out with my guy Rob[49] on Friday — that’s gonna be crazy,” he said, referring to their collaboration “On Dat Money.” “But that’s what Cardi is going to be now, just a single artist.”
He added: “I’m sure Offset wants Cardi to release an album. Hey, fellas out there, boyfriends, y’all know how that feels right? When you want your chick to work. You in the house and your chick won’t leave […] ‘You don’t have an album to do? You don’t have a single to record?'”
Cardi quickly responded on X Spaces, claiming she had once performed a striptease for Joe Budden during her days as a stripper and witnessed him using drugs.
“I gave you a lap dance twice at that damn Starlets. You were high as hell. High as hell on cocaine, you bastard. I could smell the cocaine on your breath,” she said.
“I don’t care when people talk about me,” she continued. “But you always talking st about me, Joe Budden. Out of nowhere! You must think I did something to that bastard. For the past two years, that bastard has just been talking st about me. Why?
The Bronx rap star went on to criticize the podcast host for “hating” on Drake, citing his claims that the 6 God is being forced to tour continuously as part of his $400 million deal with Universal Music Group.
“You gave up your passion. I’m not gonna give up, bro,” she continued. “And don’t be a hater. If somebody gets $400 million for a deal and you say, ‘Oh yeah, they gotta tour, this and that.’
“N***a, I’ll tour until I’m 65 if somebody gives me $400 million — $400 million that you don’t have. Everything somebody does good, you always hate it. That’s bad, that’s terrible.”
After Cardi’s clapback, Budden initially stated that he would never cover her music again but later made the rare move of apologizing to her.
