Joe Budden is not a fan of Logic’s recent interview with his father.
On an episode of The Joe Budden Podcast, Budden addressed the rapper's emotional conversation with his dad, where the two talked about their strained relationship and childhood trauma.
"I feel sorry for him," Budden said around the 1:40:00 hour mark below. "I feel sorry for the people that run around uncomfortable with self. I feel sorry for the people that feel like they have to speak down on they parents because they have resentments...If you want to do that, then you don’t have to do that on camera for the sake of content."
Budden continued to claim that self-hate is the factor behind Logic's decision to have the public conversation with his father.
“I think that Logic has a lot of that self-hate inside of him and it comes out in these weird ways. Like, the whole story about Logic’s upbringing and his mom calling dad a n***er, and some of that hate that they speak about. Like when I hear how he speaks to his dad, it just sounds like a lot of unresolved [trauma]," Budden continued.
Logic’s father, Robert Bryson Hall, appeared on the Maryland rapper’s podcast Logically Speaking last week where they discussed Hall’s drug addiction and absence during his son’s childhood. Budden played a clip of their conversation, which saw Logic say: "My n***a, you’ve asked me for money.”
“I get it. I hear what you’re saying right now but I’ma look you in your f**king eyes and I’ma tell you, you have asked me for a million dollars," he said. "Now what I’m saying is, we ain’t f**king with none of that s**t."
Budden said he wanted to smack the rapper due to what he believed to be the disrespectful nature of the conversation.
“I wanted to smack Logic for talking to his dad like that,” he added. “Imagine if Drake did something like that to his dad. Like, imagine that. These n***as are crazy. Logic, I’m praying for you.”
