Joe Budden Explains His Sudden Absence Amid JAY-Z Allegations

by HHL JT

There is news concerning JAY-Z.

And it's not good.

Hov has been accused of raping a 13-year old at a Puffy party 24 years ago.

In the past, such news would have Joe Budden jumping on an emergency podcast.

But there has been no word from Joe, leading some to suspect he's protecting Hov.

Budden says that's not the case at all.

"No need for think pieces guys, I'm dealing with a personal family matter, pls allow me to do so personally.  Super grateful to each member of the crew for holding it down in my absence, thank you," he typed.
