Padded Room is such a fresh album. I really can't see what someone would not like that album. I can understand how down south fans, could not like it. But if your from the North(and your a rap fan) and you don't like padded room, thats puzzling to me.

Buddens

has the word play
hes very introspective
sick flow
cool voice
charisma
he can make a club song when he wants to
hes funny

the album has alot of replay value, because its thoughtful. Joe Budden made the album I wish Eminem made. A real album where we find out who the artist really is.

i agree with everything you said but for me.. Joe buddens has too many different sides to him. He contradicts himself all the time, claiming that he doesnt like starting beefs and so on, and that he is better then all that... to then going in on Method Man who has one of the best resume's in the game. As a fan i have no idea who the real joe buddens is and i think his career is sufferening because of it.

I didn't like the method man thing. but i like that he says whats on his mind.


that song where he goes on for 15 minutes about why rap is dead is incredible......

I played that in front of a non rap fan, and even he was shocked....

i like rap from all regions. i dont care where its from. i dont like Buddens and i havent heard this album cause of that. i probably wont even wanna check it.

im not trying to take away from his music, because he is deffinantly very creative, and a real lyricist to say the least. But what i am saying is that his poor image and inability to stay out of controversy is deffinantly affecting his career...

I agree, sometimes he needs to know when to shut up. I know what your saying, hes too arrogant sometimes.

if you don't like this song, your right......

Id also like to see joe maybe getting in on some collaborations, especially with more new york rappers... really the only feature he had on the album was the game with future... that was deffinantly a good look.
Why havent we seen more of this in his career?

hes too busy fighting with everybody......I think Joe is just frusterated. Hes soooo ILL, but nobody cares.(besides his fans)(13 k the first week)

Joe Budden is a throwback to the 90's. And the 90's don't sell anymore...

Lol ah man joe budden wouldve gotten himself in some serioussssssss trouble in the 90's if he addressed beefs and other rappers the way he does now...

Just the other day i heard Busta Rhymes and Red Man on the radio and busta said that he thinks joe buddens needs to be ***** slapped... That coming from a guy like busta rhymes shows the type of respect that joe lacks from other hip hop heads in the game...

Joe will never have the level of respect that a guy like Nas, Jay Z, or Jadakiss have in the streets.

busta rhymes did a song with joe budden. i didn't like what he said about meth, i've said that many times. this thread has turned to joe budden's street credibility....I'm talking his music and skills. I'm not talking about the personal life of Joe Budden. Joe Budden is the best new rapper from the 2000-2009. he has all the talents to be one of the greatest rappers of all time.

joe is very, very versatile. He really opens up here, great story telling, song flows together from beginning to end.

The production is not up to par. And it takes away from the album. Just didn't like it at all.

its weird, i actually thought the production for the most part was dope.

but your not alone, many didn't like the production.

how about the song where joe is talking to god? that was crazy....

this is crazy...

Best track I've ever heard from Budden.

But regarding Budden's street rep, dissing others and him contradicting himself. I think the two goes hand in hand with people not giving his album a chance. I felt/feel the same way about Fat Joe.. He've made some bangers no doubt, but him having no respect in the game (especially from the rappers I usually listen to) makes me wanna say ''**** him''

I don't know.....I dont think hes as bad as fat joe or 50 when it comes to dissing other artists.

I just like how he makes music from the heart and hes intelligent in a non nerdy way.....some things he says anyone can relate to. And his flow is very strong, you can feel what he saying. Kind of like jays flow, dmx, 2-pac etc.

I like MM2, best piece of work he's ever put out. lefthook already said it, Padded Room's production was awful.

Not a fan of Budden period. And after the **** he said about Meth, I hate him even more.

im a meth fan but if u dont like a mc because he dissed ur fav mc or one of them u are a groupie of that artist. By the way he was right he is a better lyricist. Most of the time he say's something about a artist he is right,just look at prodigy and saigon. He said saigon hit and ran which he did and prodigy fell the fuk off which he did. Does he contradict himself yea every artist does.

Its weird how some just hate joe budden......lol

Well, when it comes to disrespecting hip-hop legends, I can see why some people would hate on him for that, I could care less what he says, he'll never be as great an asset to hip-hop as Meth was and still is (Blackout 2!>Padded Room), I think it's more of he's a dissapointment in most's eyes. His mixtapes are better than his albums :/

of course, 50 did the same thing, and i didn't like it. but i've learned to get over stuff like that.

I never said he was a better asset to hip hop than Meth.

Padded Room is not a dissapointment to me. I play it everyday.

^To alot of people it was/is, not just me.

I wasn't saying you did, I was just saying that people who would dislike him for saying the **** about Meth that he did shouldn't care because he'll never come close to Meth.

ayo ock

when i'm in da hood i only play dipset ****

To me, I think MM2, MM3, and Halfway house are all clearly better then Padded Room and most people seem to agree. Hes capable of dropping a classic, padded room was disapointing compared to what hes capable of like killa cam said.

I like this song more then anything off padded room

The only songs that have replay value to me are:

I couldnt help me
Do tell
Angel in my life
pray for me

Not saying that the other songs are bad...

I'll give it a listen. If I don't like it you getting the red karma, Truth. Ok, you're not but still.:luvbed:
