Dope music doesn’t get overlooked. There are no hidden classics. That being said, as hot as the internets make Joe Budden out to be, people really don’t care about him. The Saigon beef was a ploy to gain attention cause no one cares. Dude is too good of an MC to be this complacent with his work. The Internet Soldiers are the reason Padded Room sucks. He knows he can put out subpar work & the stans will say it’s the dopest shit ever.

so you really think that Joe believes that the album is sub-par? you’re talkin like he went into the studio and was like, “fuck it, I”m gonna just make anythng and these niggas are gonna buy it”

and you’ve come to this conclusion based on your opinion that the album isn’t good. most of the Budden fans I’ve spoke to think the album is dope, so what you’re saying has no merit whatsoever.

first of all, how do you know what he’s selling? you saw the Soundscans? and what do you consider “selling records”? because I’m pretty sure he sold some records last week. I highly doubt he didn’t sell anything. so what I think you’re saying is, he’s not going Gold or Platinum. and if those were the expectations you had, for Joe, in this day and age when the #1 album in the country only sold 60K, then you are out of your fucking mind.

agree with whoever said you sound like a broad for talking about sales. like you own fucking stock in Joe Budden. if you don’t like the album, then don’t listen to it. but don’t sit there and try to say dude is a failure when i’m willing to bet he has more money in his bank account right now then you do.

Smh at some so-called credible blog sites for their reviews of Padded Room. The album got good reviews in some places but others were totally unprofessional and embarassing for the reviewers. If you didn’t like the album thats cool. But places I used to think were credible like TSS and AllHipHop definitely did not really listen to the album. They didn’t even understand obvious concepts for certain songs like Exxxes (which is a very well executed song imo) and kept complaining about punchlines when PR is almost completely devoid of punchlines (something Joe did purposely). Its like they listened for beats and gave it a review. That is a disgrace to any real Hip Hop journalist out there. Again, if you think the album is mediocre cool, but actually listen to and ingest the album before you arrive at that conclusion.

Imo his album is very good, but I’ve heard it a few times and I am a fan. MM3 is still his crowning achievement in my opinion. That one is def a classic and my fav album of the past few years. MM2 is also better album wise.

As far as his buzz in the streets. I live in North Jerz my dude. I hear people bumping The Future, other songs from his album, songs from previous albums, and even freestyles, in whips, house parties, clubs etc. For an underground artist who doesn’t fit the mainstream typecasting of what a rapper should be, that is def impressive and is testament to the talent he has. Support him. He is one of the best lyricists breathing, he makes genuine down to earth music, he has done every type of song well, and he HAS MADE very good albums even if some of them were not official releases.

eskay i see you getting aggy but since you’re a smart fellow i fail to see why you can’t see the plain truth of the matter

bottom line: when you release an album straight to digital format, you’re bypassing huge swaths of the listening audience in favor of a much smaller group of people — many of whom already illegally download

i don’t like fif much but he was correct when he said that music isn’t like being a painter where you put on a smock and paint for yourself. if you’re a musician, you want your message to reach people. not 10 people. and it doesn’t mean you will change your music so that you sound like miley cyrus and appeal to 10,000,000 people, but it does mean doing something other than locking yourself in a padded room and entertaining yourself with music that only you like (no puns intended.)

no i don’t want poppy music out of joe. i want the mm3 joe. and the fact that joe is signed to any label is a good look. but let’s be clear that amalgam is an experiment. napster was an experiment. at first, it was pure gold. when they tried to monetize it, it became pure lead. we have no idea if amalgam can work over the long term. maybe so, maybe not. so far, the only label above water is atlantic, so we know lyor cohen is doing something right. or he’s lucky. everybody else is just throwing shit at the wall and hoping it sticks.

whoever says joe budden is a failure if he doesn’t sell on amalgam isn’t thinking clearly, but if someone is saying that amalgam is not the best look for an artist like joe, that could be a legitimate criticism because amalgam hasn’t proved itself yet.

SMH. . . myspace does $1 billion a year in ad revenues?

eskay, you need a hip hop community. where unsigned artists could politic, and the big boys could go and scout for new talent based on who’s pages get the most views. . . . myspace, but with a very focused niche.

holla @ me.

–yea what he said

>>and you’ve come to this conclusion based on your opinion that the album isn’t good. most of the Budden Stans

so is that supposed to offend somebody? a rapper should hope and pray he has stans in this day and age. I’m a Jay-Z stan. I’m a Cam stan. I don’t consider myself a Budden stan, but I’m pretty close.
==============================
Ii don’t stan any artist. If the shits weak, the shits weak, no matter how much I want them to win. And how much stock you got invested in Joe Budden? The way you’re trying to defend the nigga, you’d think some promo dollars were finding their way into your pocket. But we know that’s not true.

Afterall, he is on Amalgam Digital.

Like why are niggas even preoccupied with his finances or any rapper finances for that matter. If you think the music is subpar then cool but using Amalgam as the crux of your argument is tomfoolery.

===========================
It’s not hate. I think he’s dope, how many times do I have to repeat that? But you know what, you’ve got a point. My rants are fueled by my disappointment with Joe’s view on his own career. It’s like he’s given up. He’s stopped trying to be the nicest out. He’s settled for the easy route. Cater to the diehards & fuck everybody else.

>>but it does mean doing something other than locking yourself in a padded room and entertaining yourself with music that only you like

^you’re also basing what you’re saying right now on your own opinion. you obviously didn’t like the album because if you did, you wouldn’t be saying that.

furthermore, anybody signing to an indie label, be it Amalgam or Koch or Babygrande, knows from jump that they are going to be reaching a smaller audience. but at the same time, they’re spending less and earning more per CD.

and for an artist like Joe, that’s the smartest move if you ask me. niggas are on majors, being strongarmed into making bullshit auto-tuned singles and then selling 20-30K on and not recouping. Joe just made the album he wanted to make on his own terms.

>>but if someone is saying that amalgam is not the best look for an artist like joe, that could be a legitimate criticism because amalgam hasn’t proved itself yet.

that’s not what Amp is saying though and you know it.

as much as you’re talking about #’s and units sold, you’d think that you’d be paying attention to the state of the music industry right now. because if you were, then you’d know that niggas with way more commercial appeal than Joe ain’t selling dick on majors.

Pump it up was the biggest song of his career and he only went gold on his first album at a time when everybody was going platinum like water.

so what do you think his chances of having another Pump It Up are in this day and age? and even if he does, what are the chances that that’s gonna translate into big sales?

I’ll tell you right now that there’s no way he would sell 500K even with a comparable single. if you can’t see that, I don’t know what to tell you.

Joe has regressed, settling for the acceptance of rabid fans who’ll play his shit on a loop for three weeks straight. Whwere is the nigga who felt he could challenge Hov fro the crown? Where is the nigga who was killing the mixtape scene when he first came out? That’s the Joe Budden I was a fan of, not this emo nigga, bitching & moaning, making music no one wants to hear. The Future? ReallY? C’mon b, the nigga is better then that. At least I thought he was. Now, I’m not so sure.
