Soulja Boy has had his say on Joe Budden’sbeef with streamers including Adin Ross and Kai Cenat.
Budden initially criticized Cenat for not knowing who Killer Mike was after he won the Grammy for Best Rap Album and later took aim at younger streaming stars for not knowing enough about Hip Hop.
Asked by TMZ about Budden’s issues with the streamers, Soulja Boy said: “You gotta let the youngins shine. It’s a new day and age. It’s 2024, when I came out I dealt with the same thing. Let the youngins do their thing. It’s a new wave. Shout out to Kai. Shout out to my boy Adin. People don’t understand the new age, – Twitch, streaming.
“Joe Budden, all my people out there, ya’ll gotta adjust with the times,” he concluded after comparing the situation with his own past beef with Ice T.
Budden started the beef on his podcast where he played a clip of Cenat’s negative reaction to Killer Mike winning a Grammy over Travis Scott.
After the clip finished, Budden looked at the camera and said: “Y’all little streaming n-ggas don’t always run shit! Shut the fuck up! We don’t care about none of that lil’ streamy moshpit, marked card, whatever you n-ggas is doing over there. U-fucking-topia? U-nopia, n-gga.
“I’m just so happy that the little fuckety fucks finally have a look in the mirror moment and say, ‘Oh, it’s not about us!’ No, adults are out, n-gga! […] N-ggas got fly shit on, real execs, business people.”
Cenat then replied on his livestream, saying: “What we have here is a case of old n-gga syndrome […] Stop talking about streaming n-ggas like we some lil’ n-ggas, bro. I could buy you, my n-gga. Do you understand that?”
Ross also launched into Budden for criticizing streamers: “Joe Budden, every time I see you or a clip of you, it’s just on some hating shit. I’ma be honest, bro, I don’t know what you do. I can’t even name one Joe Budden song, respectfully.
“You’re one of these old asses who hates. Why can’t you be more like Rick Ross or Snoop Dogg, the OGs that are cool as fuck and show flowers to the young motherfuckers? You have no room to talk, no room to speak.”
