In the clip, Melle Mel ethers Joe Budden. Chart and all!

Previously: Joe Budden vs. Method Man (Saga Continues)
Real Talk should be on everybody’s list
WORD.
Everything he said is right, but again, that has nothing to do with Joe Budden’s point. The misunderstanding is that Joe Budden is taking a Greatest Rapper Ever (emphasis on EVER) list and looking at it as far as who is the best at rapping in 2009. Which makes zero sense, but you can’t get mad at that when he made his perspective clear.
LMAO @ the ass crack of hip hop
I honestly think that his last few words said it all.
Enough said.
He said he’s the hungriest guy in the game…LMFAO. ahh i love a little laugh.
JOE WHO???????????
WHO THE FUCK IS THIS CLOWN TO EVEN OPEN HIS MOUTH OPEN GRANDMASTER MELLE MEL??
So, did anyone actually PAY any attention to what Joe was saying? Any at all?
Melle Mel, I respect you. You sir, are correct, without you and the rest of the Furious Five, we wouldn’t have hip-hop. For that, I am FOREVER in your debt. And thank you.
HOWEVER…
The brackets didn’t say Pioneering MC’s. Didn’t say best entertainer. Didn’t say Most Albums Sold.
It said BEST RAPPER EVER.
If we’re saying rapper, we’re talking lyrics, right? To be a MC, you have to have more than lyrics (i.e. stage presence, charisma, cadence, etc.)
But RAPPING? That’s just lyrics.
And all Joe is saying, that RIGHT NOW, he doesn’t think that too many people can hang with him in lyrics.
So, from you, to Meth, to whoever else that got their mic cords all twisted, just do one thing.
Get on stage, or get in the booth, and rhyme. Show and prove. Show and prove Budden wrong, that’s all he’s asking for.
If you can’t do that… you shouldn’t really be speaking on the subject.
Joe is insane to go after a a true legend in our musical history. A big shout out to the Grandmaster for handling that with pure fact!
Melle Mel and Method Man have nothing to prove to the Hip Hop Nation, If you don’t know that you better ask somebody.
Joe Buddens on the other hand needs to prove alot
Clearly the old guy didn’t listen to what Budden said.
Yeah who the hell is Joe Pudding?
That’s a wac name & a pound to penny he raps over super wac synthesizer beats?
Just going to have this comment echo what 757/”And the band plays on” said.
in 2009, Melle Mel is a better MC than Joe Budden. i listen to Joe Budden, he’s not a horrible rapper. but in 2009, in 2008, in 2007…take away the money or chains or magazine write ups or message board debates or hot records and base it on Spitting/actual rapping Mel is by far a better rapper/mc/whatever.
Raheim from the Furious Five is also a better rapper than joe budden today but thats whole nother story
If you’re talking about best rapper EVER, a 2009 MC aint saying shit to someone that’s been in it from THE BEGINNING. Sheeit, a 2000-anything rapper aint saying anything to a rapper that’s been there since THE BEGINNING. especially with an MC whose DNA exists in every serious, lyrical MC out now. Melle Mel might be the old school, but his old-school statements are more institutional than any song Joey can rock now. And Joe is mad nice right now. But its not about NOW, its about EVER, all time! Mel is the motherfuckin blueprint. Period.
Yo, Im with Mel on this one…
Especially after listenin’ to an old school “mixtape” from 1978 a couple days ago. Before even hearing this interview I was thinking to my self…’Damn, Melle Mel gots skills, he might be the best rapper ever’ lol.
Serious fam, Mel had serious longevity on the mike when he was throwing down freestyle after freestyle on song after song (rocked by the man himself, GM Flash). And dont get started with Creole and Cowboy too. Control of the mike…and the crowd!
Joe who….dont play yaself…
… if melle mell truly feels he OR cowboy is better then joe, then he should of replied by going in the booth and killing a beat and adding som cowboy vocals to it… the fact that he did this little vid here alone says he can
t hang with joe BAR FOR BAR!!!! so those of you talking shit, need to wake up and realize that rappers skills have evolve since the melle mel era, and joe is a product of that…
Dog, u looking mad shaky here. Aint nobody talking shit here except Budden … and your ig’nant ass. Its called greatest EVER meaning of ALL TIME.
Melle Mel: in the game since ’77.
Budden: since early 2000s.
Do the math ……

did any of these so called rappers in question even try to understand joe budden point. he never said hes a better Mc or artist or record seller or pioneer than anyone on the list, he simply said he would destroy those in question lyrically hinting the title best rapper. he also didnt question eminem’s 1 seed status b/c he agreed with vibe on that point cause no one can fuck wit em lyrically outside of rakim the god mc.but you would of know if you watched the whole tape. i respect melli mel for what he did for hip hop. but step in the booth wit joey lets see who would get destroyed
“Joe Buddens is down here at #32. Thats somewhere around the ass crack or the ball sack of HipHop”.
Yo Budden you need to quit cryin and respect the guys who made hip hop what it is today. Budden is the weakest part of Slaugterhouse anyway he needs to quit crying over a stupid list because he is never going to get top 10 greatest rappers ever period
budden is obviously confused thinking he can disrespect a pioneer in the game. budden got talent but he’s a getting out of hand. he needs to publicly apologize to melle mel. damn. no respect for the game.
joe BloodASS vs. RAP KING MELL?
that’s cant be serious!!!!
GRANDMASTER MELLE MEL IS THE KING and joe is the lil sucker
Like GOD created world Grandmaster made Hip hop
He is like a God in rap
like people waste the Earth and getting it worse (but in the begining it was natural and good) THESE STUPID NEW SCHOOL RAPERS LIKE THIS TOY JOE WASTING RAP
these new school rappers will “die” in the next few years, and then next stupid rapers will be in the theme and so on…….
but
O L D S C H O O L N E V E R D I E S !!!!!!!!!
it will stay forever even in the next million years
