If not, Joe Budden is one of the MOST Underrated lyricists to date. Born in Harlem, NY but raised in New Jersey but calls Jerz his home. He has plenty of
lyrically insane tracks. Has beefed with The Game but has squashed that beef hopefully they can collab, but now he still has a
score to settle with Lloyd Banks a member of G-Unit. He is who Joe Budden is addressing in the track "
Dumb Out" which is highly thought to be his greatest punchline heavy freestyle to date. Signed to Def Jam, Joe Budden has put out his self titled album "Joe Budden" which sold horribly but as said by Jay-Z the album is a prime example of a hot lyricist facing bad promotion. He has also put out mixtapes Mood Muzik 1 & 2. Mood Muzik 2 is said to be a Mixtape Classic. It shows
Joe Budden's is on top of his game. Tracks like the before mentioned "Dumb Out" was released under it. Others titled "Three Sides To A Story" "If I Die Tomorrow" "6 Minutes Of Death (Remix ft. Jae Millz & Stack Bundles)". Look out for an also promised Mood Muzik 3. Joe Budden's sophomore album "The Growth" is promised to be released this year. Cop that album!
