"$$$HITTING MEEEEEE,"
Responding to Drizzy's Instagram dig at him, Joe Budden mentioned during his recent podcast episode:
“Hey, Drake, don’t shoot at me mad that you ice cold. I’m not doing a back-and-forth with a corpse. I wanted to do it when it was fun."
Budden continued:
"Don’t go get shot all through the year and then pop up like Bernie at Weekend at Bernie’s wanting to shoot at me now. No, n***a. Go spin. Spin the fucking block. … Are you crazy?”
Joe Budden is not the only person Drake has seemingly dissed on the Gimme A Hug track. The rapper has addressed his rap feud and people waiting for his obituary on the song from his latest album.
