Busta Rhymes Lashes Out At Journalists

There’s no denying Busta Rhymes‘ strong passion for his music. Last night, at a listening session for his superb eighth solo album I’m Blessed (due this June), Complex and the rap press rubbed shoulders with Bussa-Bus and a few of his producers like DJ Scratch, and Sean C and LV. The album sounded amazing—a true return to the vintage Busta we love. However, the handful of stone-faced journalists on-hand didn’t exactly show their approval. Apparently hoping for a more enthusiastic reaction, Busta started yelling at the journalists, saying, “If you n*ggas is gonna continue to do that—leave. Fuck the reviews.” After the jump, listen to Complex’s exclusive audio of Busta’s fiery tirade.

you know what? I’m feeling Busta’s PASSION FOR THE MUSIC AND THE CULTURE right about now. He’s NEVER been afraid to speak his mind and is always ready to either ELABORATE or SHOW AND PROVE his point or stance. HE’S A STAND UP DUDE. There’s a lot of FUCKERY going on IN THE INDUSTRY. They’ve been trying to assassinate his character in the media in regards to his legal woes. He’s CLEARLY not doing it FOR THE MONEY. He’s doing it FOR THE LOVE OF THE CULTURE AND THE ART OF EMCEEING. Did he spaz? Yeah. Does he have a right to? Yeah. LISTEN to what he says about the ATMOSPHERE IN THE ROOM.
