Joe Budden’s current solo home Amalgam is said to be in a legal battle to keep Joey on the label, but unlike E1, somebody from Amalgam spoke out to put Joey on blast.
Check out the following tweets below.
Joey recently responded to the claims about the contract and why he won’t turn in Great Escape.
i’m wide awake so i’ll try my best 2 help some of u guys out while i’m bored….
first of all, 2 fully understand the dude, you’d have 2 know him, he’s a little off in the way he thinks, which i am also, but just 2 try & hint at what i’m talking about..
he believes he’s part of some illuminati s**t & can control the president’s moves w/ 1 phone call (sounds wild, right ??)
cliff note version – dude wanted 2 sign SH, didn’t happen…
i signed a 2 album deal after PR, 1 digital, 1 physical w/ a 140k advance all in… 80 2 be paid up front, 60 4 them to hold 2 pay producers, mixing, etc..
said contract was 2 pages… 1 being the actual contract, 1 being the sheet 2 sign….
SH signs 2 E1..
dude then calls E1 & my lawyer saying that i’m not legally allowed 2 do that album becuz i’m signed 2 him in an exclusive capacity & sends over a contract the size of a book with my signature, stating all types of crazy ass s**t… they’re in charge of my merchandise, publishing, etc, & its a 3 album deal…
i claim i didn’t sign that bulls**t & there will be no ER until this matter is cleared up…
he calls 2 beg 4 ER & in exchange will clear me 2 record the SH album while we clear everything up (only way this could be done considering bith ER & the SH album were way behind schedule becuz of all this)
he puts out ER on the same date as SH (seems small, but dude had already been threatening Royce & Joell’s managers w/ dropping a Budden project in close proximity 2 anything they do, which no1 wanted naturally)
E1 wants 2 re sign SH, but here comes Shady (E1 signed us 2 a 1 album deal which every1 in the industry called them fools 4 doing)
Next then goes & cuts some deal w/ Alan (E1), what that deal included no1 really knows 4 sure, but they got a s**tload of $ under the promise they’d be able 2 deliver Budden product,( remember, E1 wants Budden desperately)..
so now a hard copy of ER comes out 2 every1’s surprise & is doing great generating A LOT of $ that i haven’t seen a dime of, along with PR HH & MM royalties…
i decide i’m not handing in GE (2 E1 who’s expecting it becuz thats what they paid Amalgam 4 basically) until Amalgam has absolutely nothing 2 do w/ Budden…
keep in mind, when i did try 2 hand GE 2 amalgam, i told them they needed 2 start paying these producers w/ that other 60 b4 we start losing records (this is back when we were trying to “clear” everything up).. they said hell no, i better pay them from the 80k i got, the 60 aint movin til the albums out….
i also offered 2 pay them, in full, 140k 2 remove themselves from any situation of mine, didn’t happen… E1 offered them 200k 2 do the same, i was told “dude is crazy, he’s coming back w/ astronomical #’s, he desperately wants 2 be a part of)….
so now E1 is supposedly trying to buy that contract from them, but E1 also wants to keep that exclusivity part in there 2 have some control over the SH/Shady deal…. Shady offered a buy out, they didn’t take it, Shady offered an over ride (which they’re negotiating now 2 my knowledge)….
bottomline… Amalgam forged a contract, probably cuz they knew their piece of s**t company would fall immediately once i left, but thats me guessing, who really knows why… so that, along w/ E1 trying their best 2 keep SH, is holding things up a tad bit….
take what u will outta that, i tried my best 2 help clarify without disclosing everything….
& PS… if any of u have ever bought a car… Tahiry is leasing hers 4 $500 a month, which i put the down payment on (4K)… since when did u ever need 80k 2 even buy a car ?? *jordanshrug*
A few hours ago Anyextee briefly responded to some of Joey’s above tweets.
“The part where he claims he would pay $140K has to be the most comical…” He continues. “Not that I beleive he even has that kind of money but who in their right mind wouldnt take that
amount? ..and the 200K? that’s news to me. hey..done deal!

With Joe Budden’s recent war of words with Method Man over who’s the better MC, Jump Off’s Slaughterhouse groupmates weighed in on the debate when speaking to XXLMag.com last night (June 11) at HeadQcourterz Studios in NYC.
“With all due respect, I think [Joey] would tear Method Man a new a*****e and that’s just my personal opinion,” said Royce resolutely. “Let’s just keep it all the way funky. Nobody means no disrespect, man. It’s like when Allen Iverson crossed over Jordan. It’s like, ‘Come on, man. He just got new legs.’”
Ortiz broke it down, differentiating between lyricist and MC. “Mcing comes with a whole bunch of things,” he explained. “I’ve seen a Method Man show and seen how he rocked it so I’m answering this as a fan and not being biased to my group. They both have strong points as MCs but Joe Budden’s clearly the better lyricist.”
Crooked also sided with Budden, saying, “If them two get on a song right now, [Joe’s] gonna have the best verse,” he said. “That’s just what it is. It ain’t even about being biased. That’s like if I get on a song with Em right now, I don’t know If I’m gonna have the best verse.”
The feud began when Joey objected to being ranked significantly lower than the Wu-Tang MC in Vibe’s “Best Rapper Alive” tourney brackets, posing the question, “You mean to tell me if Method Man was standing in front of my face right this second and we had to rap back and forth that Method Man would be the victor?” Feeling disrespected, Meth responded on DJ Enuff’s radio show, “He feel like he can out rhyme me? s**t, I feel like I’m the best nigga, can’t nobody out-rhyme me.”
The former Def Jam MC finally got his two cents in when asked about a major label future for Slaughterhouse past their self-titled debut slated for a August 11 release on E1 Music – one month later than its original due date. “We’re not idiots… and we’re not that narrow-minded or that close-minded to where we’ll say, ‘Oh no, we’ll never do that again,’” said Joe in regards to going major despite all members going shelf woes in the past. “If a great opportunity presents itself and God happens to put a situation in front of us where the four of us and our teams individually and collectively feel it’s a great idea, then yeah, it would happen.” – Devin Chanda
