Joe budden interview Talk bout favorite wu member(dont want it with GHOST/RAE)
AllHipHop.com: This is one from the AllHipHop.com Ill Community. LESkidd asks, “Do u think u better than Redman?”
Joe Budden: [Laughs] You see what trouble that’s gotten me in. [laughs] Questions like that have gotten me in trouble as of late.
AllHipHop.com: I’m just asking their questions.
Joe Budden: [answering] I don’t know. I would like to find out though.
AllHipHop.com: You would like to find out? What do you mean by that?
Joe Budden: I mean, I would be more than willing to find out [if he’s better than Redman].
AllHipHop.com: This is from the Ill Community. “Do you think that Method Man can out-rap you in a battle?”
Joe Budden: Today?
AllHipHop.com: Yeah.
Joe Budden: I don’t think there are too many people that can out-rap me in a battle.
AllHipHop.com: Somebody asked this earlier, but somebody also asked if you were in the year '93-'95, could you best Meth in a rap battle? Do you feel the same way?
Joe Budden: If me, my present self was in that era I wouldn’t be so confident.
AllHipHop.com: Ill Community asks, “Who is your favorite Wu Tang Clan member?”
Joe Budden: I don’t know, it would be difficult to say. I go to different ones for different things and it changes at various points in their legacy. At one point, I was the biggest Method Man, fan and then the Purple Tape came out and it was all about Raekwon. It was all about Ghost at on point. It always rotated between Meth, Rae, Ghost and [Inspectah] Deck.
AllHipHop.com: torbenb: “In Joe's recent radio interview, he said their were some emcee's he would ‘leave alone.’ Who are they?”
Joe Budden: I’m leaving Eminem alone. I’m leaving Rakim alone. I’m leaving Big Daddy Kane alone. I’m leaving LL Cool J alone. I would leave Jay-Z alone…if there weren’t other situations pending, I would leave him alone. Nas. Black Thought. Ras Kass. There’s a long list of guys I would leave alone. Ghostface I would leave alone. Raekwon, I would leave alone.
AllHipHop.com: What’s this based on? Career or lyrical merits?
Joe Budden: If I got into a lyrical quarrel with these people, I would be unsure of what would be taking place. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten into it with anybody were I didn’t know what was going to happen.
