Meek Mill has much to celebrate. His album Dreams Worth More Than Money just went No. 1 on the Billboard 200 Chart, giving him his first No. 1 album of his career. His album sold more than it was projected to, with over 216,000 copies in its first week. With his new success under his belt, Meek Mill stopped by Power 105.1's The Breakfast Club radio show and had a few cocky words for LHHNY rapper Joe Budden.
Last week, Meek Mill and Joe Budden had an small Twitter feud after Budden took to his podcast to express his thoughts on Meek Mill and Nicki Minaj's relationship. Budden called their relationship "sappy" and "nasty" and said that Meek's music was "too hard" for him to be acting as sensitive as he is with Nicki Minaj. He also said that the only reason Meek is so gushy over Minaj is because he's not used to having women as "bad" as her. Meek fired back on Twitter calling him an "old noodle" and saying Budden was just hating because his "rap money slowing up". He tweeted a warning, "Yall guys talk about other men too much..Don't let my album do good..Ima change all that and expose how lame yall dudes really are!"
During his interview with The Breakfast Club, Meek addressed the situation, saying, "Joe Budden is corny as sh*t and always been corny as sh*t and always commenting on sh*t and ain't never did sh*t." When asked about Budden's comment on him having an intimate relationship with Nicki but still portraying the street life he said, "I don't know what's going on these days. You're supposed to be gay because you're a street rapper? ...Don't be on no podcast commenting. I'm cool, you're not cool. You can't tell me what people wanna say about me. We do whatever we want. We determine what's cool."
Yesterday, following all the hype around the situation, Budden attempted to clear up what he said. During an interview at Hot 97, he said that he said what he said as a joke that got misconstrued by the media. He stated, "Once the blogs got ahold of that, they wrote it out in the transcript and when you read it, you take that as a serious sentiment ... I'm all for love." He went on to say, "I'm all for Meek and Nicki's love. I can't even believe that this is a story all of these days later. But people are simpletons."
