(*50 *) The rapper-turned-podcaster contrasted his ideas regarding the 2023 occasions to those shared by KRS-One, that regreted the Grammys homage to Hip Hop back in December.
(*50 *)“I hate all them shits,” Budden stated. “They coulda celebrated Hip Hop and honored Hip Hop, which is what KRS-One was saying. He was saying, ‘Why would I show up to these events to celebrate Hip Hop and there’s no Hip Hop there?’”
(*50 *) He took place to include that it was performative for document tag promo. Look into the complete clip from Budden listed below.

(*50 *) KRS-One has actually been constantly singing in his resistance to Hip Hop 50 parties. In a meeting from December, the epic MC described he refused an individual welcome from LL COOL J himself as he really felt the Grammys had not revealed love to the society till Hip Hop 50 parties started.
(*50 *)“I was asked about two months ago; they asked me to do it and I turned them down,” he stated. “With all due respect, LL COOL J himself called me, spoke to my wife and pretty much begged for me to be on the show but we turned him down. And reason being is because I know people don’t understand this — and I say this respectfully. KRS-One is a Hip Hop extremist. I’m not violent, a violent extremist. I’m insane with this culture. I know I must have lost my mind in this.”
(*50 *) He proceeded: “I don’t fight it, I don’t apologize for it. I recognize that my experience in this thing called Hip Hop is different from mostly everybody else’s experience with Hip Hop. […] I restrict myself in a certain way, because I know who I am in this culture. You’re in the temple of Hip Hop, this is our home. This place, this institution can never side with, come under, understand the exploitation of our culture. Never will you ever see me standing in the environment where our culture is being exploited.”
(*50 *)Budden has actually had plenty to state regarding a variety of various other subjects of late, including his connection with JAY-Z.
(*50 *) The musician and host admitted in December that he really did not “handle himself well” throughout his break with Hov after the last took control of at Def Jam.
(*50 *) Showing up on The Pivot Podcast, held by previous NFL celebrities Ryan Clark, Fred Taylor and Channing Crowder, Budden confessed that he wanted he had actually taken care of points in a different way with his previous tag employer.
(*50 *)“When JAY-Z got his role as president of Def Jam, I was a young artist on Def Jam trying to work on my second album. And at that time, a lot of the artists on Def Jam had an issue with JAY-Z being the president,” he stated.
