After Joe Budden dissed Lil Yachty on Complex’s music debate show Everyday Struggle, his father has come to his defense on Instagram.
On Tuesday, Shannon McCollum retaliated with a barrage of shots aimed at Joe. “Only reason I’m posting this so I can publicly say F— #joebudden,” Papa Boat wrote in a since-deleted Instagram post. “N—a u have no relevance in Hip Hop!! And on my life I bet when his album drop his numbers will be better than any project you have released. He’s done more in 1 yr than you’ve done your whole wack ass career. FOH n—as love trying they best to pull somebody down instead of lifting somebody up! Get that free press bruh off the back of my young’n but u still a cornball! #oldwackrapperissues.”
Earlier this week, Joe ignited the beef by saying that Yachty is bad for the culture. “I don’t think Yachty is hip-hop. I don’t think Yachty’s label is hip-hop, and when you’re not hip-hop and you’re trying to just troll or exploit, you get things like this album cover, which is to draw attention to music that’s not drawing attention.” He also said that Yachty was “ruining the culture.” The album cover Budden referenced is the art for Yachty’s Teenage Emotions project, which garnered a lot of attention last week for the collection of people it features, including a young gay couple making out.
