DDG Rips Joe Budden for Commenting on His Breakup With Halle Bailey, Saying He’s Irrelevant [Photo + Video]

Joe Budden and DDG had quite an interaction over the weekend following the latter’s breakup with Halle Bailey.

DDG confirmed the breakup with a statement posted to his Instagram, earlier this week. It wasn’t long before the information spread, with people weighing in with their thoughts — like Joe Budden.

In Joe’s opinion, the breakup comes at the right time, because he’s tired of reading about the rapper and his relationship. He also accuses DDG for “clout chasing” throughout his relationship with The Little Mermaid star. “The question to my distinguished panel is a question that I’ve been asking myself for quite some time. Who the f*ck is DDG?” he begins.

“And why am I supposed to care about his thoughts on anything?… I’m very happy that they have broken up so I don’t have to keep seeing this n*ggas’ name attached to this girl’s name when I don’t know his for nothing as the standalone.” He added, “And for me, it’s important to know people based on their own name, merit, and what they have done. I don’t even know enough about her. Like, I’m not her demo either. But every time I see his name, it’s attached to hers, and it is typically in some type of clout chaser fashion. So, that makes me look at him a different way. And hopefully, I get to look at him a lot less now that they’ve broken up.” DDG and Halle Bailey were together for two years and fostered a son, Halo.

“‘Pump It Up’ went gold after 20 years u old b*tch,” he wrote in one post on X. “Joe Budden, I’m on u [finger point emoji].” In another post, he claimed that Joe Budden’s time on earth was ending. “N*gga got 30 years MAX of life left and speaking on a relationship of people the same age as your son you ain’t take care of. I hope u forget to take your magnesium pills today u old b*tch, Joe Budden [finger point emoji]..”
