Sexyy Red has reacted to Joe Budden sharing a strong theory about her and Drake‘s relationship.
On Thursday, March 28, a new episode of ‘The Joe Budden Podcast’ was released via YouTube. About two hours into the episode, Budden explained that he was waiting for Drake to respond to Kendrick Lamar’s recent diss toward him. However, he doesn’t believe Drake will react with the ferocity he needs to.
“I’ve never seen any of these n****s with a direct threat in front of them… with the exception of Drake,” Budden explained, seemingly referring to J. Cole and other rappers. “And I don’t believe Drake is gonna rap to the level that he was rapping at when he was doing those things. I don’t see that for him.”
As the conversation continued, Budden and his co-hosts referenced Drake’s recent single featuring SZA and Sexyy Red, ‘Rich Baby Daddy.’ At that point, Budden shared a strong opinion about Drake’s recent releases and his relationship with other artists.
“It sounds like a n***a that could rap at that level that gets paid off of everybody’s deal — trying to rap,” Budden continued. “That’s what it sounds like — that’s what it sounds like, to me.”
One of Budden’s co-hosts, QueenzFlip, then asked the podcaster if this information was confirmed.
“Oh, so you think he just likes being around Sexyy Red that much?” Budden replied. “…I could name some more people.”
Watch the full conversation below.
Social media users entered The Shade Room’s comment section to share mixed reactions to Budden’s stance.
Additionally, Sexyy Red also shared her reaction to Budden’s words via X, formerly known as Twitter, on Sunday, March 31.
“They do dumb,” she wrote.
As The Shade Room previously reported, Drake and Sexyy Red initially went viral for their relationship in July 2023. At the time, Sexyy Red popped out to Drake’s “It’s All A Blur” tour stop in Brooklyn, New York.
At the time, Drake gave the fellow rapper a shoutout from the stage and referred to her as his “baby mama.”
Additionally, Drake later took to his Instagram Story to share a photo of him and Sexyy Red. In the flick, the ‘Controlla’ rapper planted a kiss on her cheek and wrote a caption calling the rapper his “rightful wife.”
“Just met my rightful wife @sexyyred,” he initially wrote before dropping more words. “If my girl see ya’ll backstage being thirsty it’s gonna get smokey”
In February, Drake and Sexyy Red hopped in their acting bags for the latest music video together. Then, earlier this month, the Toronto-bred rapper went viral for the lavish gifts he purchased Sexyy Red.
