Whether it was a young Joe signing with Def Jam Records or the extremely popular media host the world knows today…the rapper turned podcaster has a candid nature which draws in millions globally to his shows. Complex recently ranked Joe as the number one star on their inaugural Hip-Hop Media Rankings, but the Jersey native has long been an icon for his voice, inside and outside of rap lyrics themselves.
The guys speaks with Joe on his career and the massive pivot he took when entering the podcasting realm, a decision that has certainly paid off. Outside of the public controversies he is an artist’s artist at his core, but the reputation he has gained comes from his opinions of some of the game’s most notable names.
Ryan acknowledges the struggles that come with being a public figure and finding life after your first career as Joe touches on his mental health struggles. Joe talks on how he has found life balance from him looking to a higher power to find moments of peace in a hectic day-to-day lifestyle that’s ultimately made him rap’s most successful media personality. A day off at the age of 50 may be on the horizon, but until he smells the flowers it is 4 a.m. wake-ups and hours upon hours of research and working at his craft for Joe, always innovating and thinking of how to revamp the space.
No matter what people have to say and understanding wholeheartedly that Joe Budden continuously makes waves in the hip-hop industry, the respect for how he’s navigated the space and earned the respect for his raw honesty and consistency, Joe is committed to keep going until he has turned podcasting upside down.
Addressing certain issues with artists and rumors over the years, Joe doesn’t hide from criticism and doesn’t back down from controversy. He owns his mistakes and doesn’t regret anything because it all has led him to where he is today. With recent P Diddy accusations, Joe opens up about troubles of his past and the lessons he learned from those tough times.
From his hit song “Pump It Up” to nearly 700 Joe Budden Podcast episodes, he continues to march to the beat of his own drum with a focus of bettering himself each day and maintaining who he is day in and day out.
New episodes drop on Tuesdays at 12 p.m. ET and Fridays at 3:30 p.m ET on YouTube, with audio available on all streaming platforms including Apple, Spotify and Amazon.
