Joe Budden To Inspectah Deck: “I’m going to tear him up for fun”
Joe Budden Ready to battle Inspectah Deck
A full-fledged lyrical feud has broken out between Inspectah Deck of the Wu Tang Clan and Joe Budden, who now represents for Slaughterhouse.
While Budden has yet to respond in song, Deck has released a song called “House N***a,” where he proclaims “the war is on.”
The lyrical beef is a result of Joe Budden expressing that he was a greater emcee than Method Man in a tourney of the best rappers alive by now-defunct Vibe magazine.
“When I first heard the Inspectah Deck s**t I thought it was weak but I said, ‘Aight I’m going to tear him up for fun,” Budden said on BlogTV, a site he uses for live video blogging. “I just wish somebody else would’ve responded, not him… Me and Raekwon talked it out, me and Busta Rhymes already spoke. Now here you come…”
Budden didn’t say that he would definitely respond, but he did sent some barbed words for Deck.
“While Inspectah Deck may be considered a legend for the one great verse he had in his 30 year career, it’s 2009…We’ll see how it all plays out. We gotta see how it goes down when I get into the studio,” Budden continued. “He should be dissing RZA for not paying him. When Saigon dissed me, my next dis track was the fact that I got paid from his dis track. I don’t think people really use their heads. He rapped on ‘Pump It Up.’ Me and Just [Blaze] got paid for it.”
On the song, Deck admits to defending Method Man, who refused to entertain a battle with Budden.
On his blog, Budden suggested that he may use the feud to push his Slaughterhouse album with Crooked I, Royce Da 5’ 9” and Joell Ortiz.
“Honestly, dude ain’t worth responding to… But I DO have an album coming out.. Mite be buzzworthy to cook dude.. We’ll see,” Budden wrote.

C’mon man. 1 line in his 30 year career?!?! Go back and check “Above the Clouds”. Lyrically speaking… Joe is alright but I believe Deck is MILES ahead of Joe. He needs to let it rest man because I believe Joe is getting in over his head should he decide to try to battle.
Joe Budden is wack, he doesnt deserve to be in a group with Royce da 5’9.
Joe got Nuthing for Deck– Joe is the most mediocre rapper ever. His voice sounds like a nagging wino begging for change. He’s nothing. Never will be, never was. Nobody takes him serious that’s why the only way he gets attention is using other established rappers names. He’s a joke.
Why do 30 and 40 year olds find this interesting?
looks like a bunch of infantilised men living in the past and trying to recapture the high points of their youth like most old HipHop people.
Wow. First Meth now he’s challenging Deck? It sounds like he’s pretty much callin out RZA also. Listen to Deck’s “Sound of the Slum” off Resident Patient – then tell me Wu tang isn’t monumental in this ish. Then listen to Gza’s “Paper Plates” (50 cent diss) I hate new rappers…
Cool man!
This can get interesting and could escalate into a full fledged lyrical war between Slaughterhouse and Wu-Tang. I’m a Wu head, but I won’t front Joe is a skilled M.C that can come up at you in a few different tempos and has unpredictable rhyme patterns. He’s not a empathic songwriter but he’s a battle M.C. His career never really took off because blacks don’t won’t to hear no shit about mental health issues. Eminem can get by with that not a black M.C. Wu will see how the second string handles things Deck, U-God, Cappadonna, Killah Army. If Royce and them eat them then METH, Rea and Ghost most come. This is good hip-hop. Nobody should get hurt.
Us 30 and 40 year olds love it because a good fight is a good fight whether you 8 or 80. It’s a man thing.
“Us 30 and 40 year olds love it because a good fight is a good fight whether you 8 or 80. It’s a man thing.”
kewl!
dat sounds mad reallzzz!!
Wu vs. Slaughterhouse is a joke. Wu fam could Slaughter them, too many to name. Royce is the best out of them. Are we talking all hip hop?- production included, I think Slaughter just buys beats. Wu producers… RZA, 4th disciple, Tru- master, DJ Mathematics…. While were at it lets pit Joell against the Beatnuts, and Royce against Andre 3000. There’s no competition with guys who have made a profound impact on the culture.
I fell you Shem. Slaughter House M.C’s haven’t made an impact in hip-hop especially Ortiz and Crooked I who are really only known for high profile associations than any music. This should make them hungry. Royce always wanted to be LL Cool Jay like famous, instead of just a regional M.C. Joe feels his skills are not respected or at least others are overrated. These men are going to come out vicious. Wu better not sleep.
I do not listen to “hip-hop”, obviously. But as a Rapologist-Critic, I can honestly tell you that I never heard of a Joe Budden. What’s his emcees name? Therefore, I know he has no historical knowledge nor respect for the craft and he’s whack. Inspecta Deck wasn’t no great emcee, but out of the Wu Ta Clan Method Man out-shined all the rest lyrically. Don’t you all get tired of “sucker emcees” trying to put down others to make a name for themselves? I’m going to down-load “Rapologist Speaks ’94” one day to let you all hear what’s “not” Rap and who can really do it and who can’t. You all have been fooled for so long, you’ll be surprised. “Wu better not sleep”, what they about 50 years old now. Negroes, please!
I did listen to a song by the Joe Budden guy. Sounded like my fellas from Philly “Young Guz” music with a guy trying to rap like someone else. That beef was like back in May before Method MAn’s 10th Anniverasry album came out if I read right. Method Man comes across like a real gangsta lately. I remember watching the Wu Tan Clan on tv and Wu Tan memebers were pushin him around like a little beotch. Method Man, you a grown man, this rap stuff may be your livelihood, but all this fighting and threating stuff is for kids. It ain’t that deep. How old are you, seriously, about 35 now?
i think meth is more like 45 but it’s his living & in rap you only as good as your last hit so budden must be way older than meth because i can’t remember when last he had a hit.
buddens plan was to get famous by dissin meth & i think it worked out well for him because no one ever talks about this guy, he’s like a ghost that got resurrected
Joe Budden does a lot of ghost writing. Him and Eminem had a relationship around the time Relapse was being crafted. People who follow non-commercial hip-hop know who he is. He’s considered a good lyricist. If you are really don’t have hip-hop trained ears he can be hard to follow. Like my parents when rap came out. What are they saying?
When it comes to hip-hop artist ages I take the approach of a kid at a birthday party. Who cares how old the clown is, he’s funny. Everybody from Wu is coming out with new music. That’s what up. R&B sucks, Gospel is weak, Country is country, Rock ain’t shit except for classic, Pop is dead. Hip-hop rules.
If you can rock till you drop, then you can rap till you collapse.
is joe a talented mc,?the answer is yes,but does he hav enuff rep n hiphop history to wanna eat off wu plate,?hell no!!i mean he repin now coz wu tang was around when he was growing up.to even wanna dream of battling any wu member lyrically is madness,joe skill today qualifies him to fuck with a lot of today’ nu breed rappers of mc’s, fab,50,cassidy so he can compete with them and not legends,wu guys are in the league with BCC,krs,epmd etc and they got bigger and better issues than be sparring new rappers.
I have seen some crappy posts but this one really impresses me. Good work.
this is why i love being an inernet gangsta because u can make someone look like a fool on the net and watch them respond with the words ‘internet gangsta’ because they dont have the intelectual to actually have an altercation like a normal person so its basically their safety card in winning an argument.
first of all this is for lunarIII – above the clouds? ok so thats 2 great verses in 30 yrs thanks for looking out keep up the good hip hop knowledge.
this is for kim – if it werent for joe budden slaughterhouse would not have formed together joe budden leaves def jam, attacks wu tang, destroys all of them and he doesnt deserve to be in a group with royce da 59? what the fuck have u been listenin to for the past 10 years??? if anything royce da 59 should be thanking joe budden for reviving his career u dumb bitch go and study real hip hop and then come speak to me whore.
this is for lyrical – u sound like u went out on a date with joe budden and he stood u up or something lol. “never was, never will be, hes a joke!” listen girlfriend u tell budden hes a joke and just because he took out for a meal does not mean u owe him anything!!!!! u go girl.
this is for robert james mclendon – as a rapologist critic? was that ur attempt to try and sound smart? first of all u sound like ur about 59 so im not suprised u haven heard of joe budden because the closest uve ever come to hip hop was goin out with a black woman. u wanna talk about real mcs? u wanna talk about fake ones? joe budden talks about day to day depression and problems we all face and can relate to. so if thats not definin a real mc please mr. rapologist fulfill me with ur knowledge on what a real mc should be and talk about. wu tang are very good mc’s they speak about how hard it is being a black man while drivin a ferrari no wonder they have so many fans if i was a fuckin idiot id listenin to them too.
this is for shiva – as a fan of hip hop as we all are do we care about quantity or quality? why is it wheneva joe attacks a single wu member they get reffered to as wu tang and not by their solo name? if barrack obama said in a statement fuck gordon brown im a gonna reffer to gordon brown as england? this is y joe budden is such a good lyricist that even u wu tang fans know he would destroy any wu mc thats y u reffer to single mc’s as wu tang because it makes a stronger statement to say joe cant fuck with wu as much as it is to say joey cant fuck with inspect a dick or gaykwon.
rememebr this whole this started out with joey sayin he thinks he can rap better than method man and from that its gone to joe budden vs the world looooool.
i remember when tupac said once upon a time fuck nas fuck jay z. these rappers today are the biggest names in hip hop as they where back then but its funny how tupac never got ridiculed for it especially at the time when he said it when he was a nobody but hey lets ridicule joe budden for leaving an opinion.
commerciall hip hop fans are just as much to blame for hip hop dying as hip hop itself u people have no knoweldge on ur comments u just like to talk alot of shit to act like u no stop riding the wu tang band wagon u fake dicks go and listen to real hip hop wu tang have been gettin raped by rza for the past 15 years and all of a sudden when joey makes a statement wu tang find their voices and wanna put out albums again cant u read between the lines are u people that stupid? when a budden fan shows his love like i do do u think im bacing my info on pump it up? do u honestly think that i support budden all the way because of songs like pump it up? commercial music is for lazy minded poeple who cant be bothered to expirement with real music so they just sit and wait for the next club banger to come out so can have something to pump out there trunk while drivin down the road lookin cool with there shades on pretending there rich for 15 minutes. real hip hop fans study every aspect of an mc and how he delivers his craft real hip hop fans aint interested in number one hits and plats and award wininng perfomace for best videos. im not sayin that real hip hop fans deserve medals im just sayin its funny when commercial fans try to argue with real hip hop fans because some of the points they make are so stupid and irrelevant i can just tell by reading the first sentence of peoples comments if they actually know wat they are sayin or if there just saying it to sound smart loool. wu tang forever
