Love joe but he needs to stop talking about this if he gonna keep digging a another hole. He hurting his brand. Tell truth let it die. They said accounting wasn't right. Stop my guy. Nasty😂
Joe just gotta realize it’s okay to be “wrong”sometimes. Being wrong won’t kill you, if your open minded it’ll help you truly grow and learn. So in the future you’ll get it “right”.
He admits wrongdoing fairly often. The problem with that is people just believe the other side without knowing what’s really going on. You’re allowed to not believe someone, you aren’t allowed to say they didn’t take actual accountability without knowing.
Joe is like those old guys that pretend like they're having a conversation with you but they actually just want an audience while they talk to themselves
100% facts. He’s brutal. He also does the knee jerk “no” in response to anything someone else says. He’s a contrarian. But then, he will reiterate exactly what the other person said as if it’s different. It’s a really annoying character trait or flaw.
Joe is the king of bending the narrative 🤦♂️ They weren't on salary, they were percentage based...that's the difference. Joe is being funny with the money
The saddest thing of all was seeing friendships destroyed. Particularly Mal & Joe who were friends for close to 10 years and LIVED together at one point.

He left out that he ended a friendship and threaten to sue them if they started another pod. He’s acting like everybody else was mad but he was level headed but he took things further than everybody else.
Joe is masterful with taking one strong point and building his whole argument on it. He mentioned Mal turning down the idea of a salary but didn’t mention the contract they were already under (according to mal) was profit partners. His example of 3 mil/yr as salary is very good. Now was profit partners let’s say 1 year you make 5, the next you make 3 and the last you make 7. Then the totals are 9 mil salary compared to 15 profit partners. For mal to already have an idea of how successful their pod already is, taking a salary could be a loss in earnings compared to profit partners.
Which contract were they under that said they were profit partners? Cause Spotify didn’t view them as such .. Rory hardly mentioned this .. so was this actual a contract or mal’s perception?
if they were partners, he wouldn't have the ability to downgrade them...even if joe had 50% and they each had 25% of the pod, they would stalemate on that subject. and even with that percentage base, that would make them minority stake holders, not partners.
Yes but with "profit partners" comes risk also. If the pod wasn't profitable them dudes wouldn't get paid. If salaried they get paid regardless, that's the angle Joe was probably trying to get at lol To Mal the risk was probably worth it, which says he believed in it, but it's all perspective I suppose
Joe over explained very simple concepts and creates his own definition for things he himself doesn’t fully understand. Ex. Not agreeing on a salary isn’t creative differences.

Rory and Mal thought they was co owners in something but had no paperwork to back it up. This happens all the time with tv shows, record labels and other professions. Joe didn't feel he owed them anything and they went they separate ways. The end
I dont get why most these fools in the comments dont get that. Street mentality will never win with proper paperwork and business signatures. Specially when you’re emotionally involved with speculation.
They had a percentage based partnership that Joe didn't pay and tried to swindle them out of with his janky accounting. Definitely happens more frequently than ppl care to admit.
And then he wants to talk in riddles about it. He had to go through all of that just to say he was putting pre payout money in other things. Like Rory and Mal said they money was helping fund other new podcasts that had better production than them. Something that they never agreed to. That's why he brought up that he got paid off "net" too.
Lets break it down from the owner perception. Let’s say they did take the percentage. If the show revenue is down you’ll feel it with a percentage. Salary is guaranteed no matter if the revenue is down. The salary may be less but it’s more likely they will get that salary amount rather having a fluctuating pay. But also no employee gets a percentage. If they signed a contract that stated they were getting a percentage off total revenue they are part owners. If this is in writing no matter what, they could sue for millions and win with no problem. Sound like they were just told this and had nothing in writing.
Joe wanted to put them in the place they made comfortable for themselves. They showed that they just wanted to come in work for an hour or 2 and dip. That sounds like someone that should be on salary. If they were bringing partnership deals to the table, or marketing plans that were viable then that would warrent a percentage based payout. If u move like an employee ima treat u like an employee. And don't get it twisted, their "salary" would have been 7 figures. Only 10% of the American population makes over 100k solo (not as a household). They felt like they provided alot by just showing up and talking. But just like an employee in any job when they left parks house, they didn't show much interest in building the show. They brought not much more then talking to the show. That deserves a check. Not a percentage.
It was a beef because Joe got in his feelings and tried to destroy Rory and Mal's reputation and said some foul stuff and brought it out to the public in the most disrespectful way. And now Mal doesn't F with him and Joe still wants that relationship. Him and Rory are now cool though. THis is EXACTLY why Ish and Ice BOTH have managers that represent with their contracts on the JBP.
@@jasonwilliams9307 Yes, this is true. Ice and Ish didnt want to make the same mistakes trying to work out contracts/negotiating directly with Joe so they hired Managers to that. And since Joe brings it up now every other Pod, LOL, he is feeling a way about it. But Ice don't care that Joe don't like it. It's just a smart business move like you said. If anyone treats podcating like a business, it's definitely Ice. LOL.
Well Rory and mal never had an issue with making money off of “net” they weren’t shown what the “net” was lmao. How are you supposed to get a percentage of net profits and not know what the net profits are…..
1. It was an incentive laden comp plan; the higher the income the more R&M get. 2. They never had equity 3. They never had to sit behind expenses. When joe owns it, and there is no money, he needs to pay for expenses. R&M never need to sit behind expenses 4. SO when spotify money went dry…he was gonna pay them out of his own pocket and be responsible for that no matter how operations performed 5. It depends now, more expenses give them less profit sharing, so the accountants need to now make sure all expenses are valid that go through THE PODCAST business 6. All revenue legally contracted with JBP LLC, would be subject to the profit sharing plan Did joe try to hide revenues by getting another LLC to sign sponsorship deals so R&M couldnt see it? Did joe run expenses through so the pod had less income for R&M to participate in? He said to audit him. That’s totally fine
I understood it different... he not used to a Job but he would like to have that... he wouldn't take thr salary thing now cause he used to gettin paid depending on his work n how good it is... he not tryna do numbers n get the same as if he dont...
@@stbcurt4250 That's their fault for not understanding they were contractors. If they were partners in the company, they should have an operating agreement specifying their partnership percentages, shares, etc. They were never partners.
Facts, its a completely new playing field. Joe just sees the floodgates about to happen and wanted complete ownership and crontrol. Wanted employees and not business partners
Let me just say this IM PROUD OF MATH!!! This platform turned into a mandatory stop in New York hip hop media and that's huge for Math and Battle rap. Back to Joe rambling
Well...what is he saying that he's not and why?what I'm hearing is he was putting in the work while they was putting in half the work but receiving the same ...but they feeling themselves to much to notice..and look like a asshole for saying it ..so he walking on eggshells so he dont look a way...thats what I get.
@Stacey Martin that is not what happened .. Mal and Rory wanted to see the books.. Joe wouldn't let them or kept dancing around it delaying them.. This cause Mal and Rory to question why someone would do that (especially a friend).. And the only logical conclusion is there's something to hide!I Joe playing semantics by saying "we have creative differences" when it has nothing to do with the creative part, it's the business part, is a clear sign of his narcissistic mentality.. The fact Joe said himself "it's my podcast on my channel I don't have to" shows what type of time he was on (which again is ok in business but don't make out your friendship is more important and your a stand up dude with your ride or dies when clearly that isn't the case.early Granted Rory and Mal should of had their business in order from the start BUT if we friends like that and the show grew with and because of the two co hosts (which it did) why would you want your so called "friends" to be in salaries instead of having ownership WHICH JOE IS A ADVOCATE FOR?! It's backward and contradicting so I can say I smell a d rider or disingenuous person when they try miss the actual reason to push Joes deluded version 🤦🏾♂️
@@azlstrhl end of the day it’s his show, we all knew of budden before the pod. Rory and mal were barely known, Joe has the name it’s his show of course he runs it. This friendship thing is clouding y’all head, they didn’t do equal work to be paid equal. If they were equals they wouldn’t have had that little strike on the show. Workers go on strike, the boss (joe) shows up and has to get it done no matter what because its HIS business.
Joe word for word on the Clearing the air JBP Episode: “I never thought I’d see the day that you two wouldn’t show up here” Turns around and says he saw the writing on the wall 😂😂😂😂
@@Eiuol81853 your name sounds like a virus that hasn’t been discovered yet. Hindsight doesn’t matter when you’ve said what you said Pay attention euiol
Funny how he threw in 3 million as an example of salary refusal, then pulled it back by saying “whatever the salary is”, because he didn’t want to be on the hook for quoting a specific dollar offer that he knew wasn’t close to what was actually proposed. If you know how to read people you’re ahead of the game.
Plus in the past when explaining his side he tried to make it out like he was trying to give everybody a raise. But without showing the real certified accounting. How are they supposed to even know if that is really a raise without seeing the paperwork?
@@timoaksproductions no. I’m just someone who has the ability to be objective, while at the same time being a fan. I like Joe, but he stay capping. He can’t be trusted with the bag. We all know someone like that, and have kept them at a distance unless otherwise necessary.
Oh my lord! This man should be a politician with the way he answers a question but never answers a question. Soooo many words. The waving of the arms. The voice inflections. But it means nothing.
MAAAAAAAAAAAATH!!!! Mane I got luv 4 this dude n I’m just soooo proud of the success…not to mention this man done pulled off a podcast with such a balance between a street feel yet so progressive at the same time. Kudos
Joe Budden's problem might be because he's a great talent he thinks he's great at business. And when business is good everything is easy. But when issues arise that's when you know how good you really are. The issue with Dame Dash belittling people for having a lack of ownership was the assumption that everyone is meant to be an owner. Some people are just talent they're not businessmen. Joe Budden is a great talent but a bad business runner and operator. He blew up the Spotify deal without a game plan and was stuck when he couldn't pay his cohost. People need to know their strengths and weaknesses!
Math and the crew I love the way you get an interview and break it up into segments, Very smart its frustrating a little as a fan as in this case the convo was just getting good then it ended but still very smart. Great job to you and your entire team. 92,000 VIEW ONLY 2000 LIKES COME ON YALL HIT THAT "LIKE" BUTTON so the homie Math and grow larger
This interview has proved that he boldfaced acted like he was a friend and was plotting to drop them.. if the writing was there he would have said. At the end we are going different directions. Not trick them into changing the name and then telling them to dip..
It's several issues here. Joe probably was giving them a great contract in comparison to his bad rap contracts. I believe he was looking out for them in his mind. The problem is they needed or wanted to judge that for themselves with seeing the overall deal. The number 1 issue is they considered themselves partners and not employees. In my opinion they never should have allowed the name change. I feel like it went downhill from there.
@@coachtali5151 that’s where you’re wrong, they all contributed. Joes podcast was also trash before Rory came, then Mal shortly after… money doesn’t equal ownership that’s a fact. There’s a reason ideas and voices are valued the way they are. Joe would even be here if it was for Peter Rosenberg.
No one in there right mind would take a salary not knowing what the overall money was… why would someone take 3 mil a year if you making 300 mil a year???
And unfortunately for the co-hosts, Joe doesn't owe them any accounting. He was signed to Spotify, they weren't. Thats Joe's contract. Not Rory and Mal's
This interview is a great example of "creative differences". Different men with different opinions / views but they're able to sit and talk like adults without the bullshit. When $ becomes part of the equation you need to watch EVERYONE around you and pay attention to the way they move.
If Joe said whatever y'all want him to say it doesn't change how people will feel about him. Ask Will Smith if public apologies and remorse save your reputation or not. Joe's reputation will never be salvaged and I don't think he should care to save it
Evey one focused on the money he making now, nobody thinking about all the money he probably missing because people rather not work with him because he never takes accountability.
And let’s be honest Joe wasn’t buddy buddy with a lot in the new industry and Mal and Rory definitely showed him the outside. He became more likeable most definitely because of them and the dynamic. He uses people. Great MC tho
@@blockwriters5728 Whatever you want to call it. Their contract said that they got a percentage of the profits. And he keeps trying to talk around that he was taking some of those profits and putting them into other podcasts before paying them. Which affects that "net" that he is referring to in this video. Something that they never agreed to.
@@jasonwilliams9307 That's the problem! If your payment that you SIGNED for says that you get a percentage then there is no way to verify that you are being paid the right amount without actually seeing the real numbers. That's the whole point that they are making that seems to just fly over everyone's head.
money is your friend, ( it’s who you want to always see and have with you ) fuck people ! they disappoint always ( who wants to still see them? please )
I saw this coming too when the spotify deal was over and Mal was calling fans idiots for saying Joe didn't handle it right. Deep down Mal and Rory were furious because they didn't get paid and didn't own sh... They were lying to themselves and I guarantee they had an exit plan and deal on the table without Joe
@@HennyAnderson I listen to that girl show from time to time . First girl left because they didn't get along. The pod itself left because they failed to attract people. They asked to be release. What's interesting is that in mal, Rory, girl pod... Joseph let them go without triggering a no compete clause. Personally I would made the boys sit down for 6 months and not allow them to hurt my business
My only question is, if he did steal why aren’t they suing him for the money they say he stole. It’s literally that simple. All this constant back and forth is stupid.
@@zetsutsuletsu2034 right i know joe is easy to hate but what makes anyone else more credible than him. Niggas will listen to literally anyone say something and believe that as fact over joe
Mr. Budden did right keep grinding for his success. Like he was telling others you need to pay attention to your surroundings in order to learn how to get ahead. Less talk and more observance.
The non business people will never understand Joe decision.. Mal & Rory still hadn't brought anything but a new show where Mal magically talks more😐...creative difference🤷🏽♂️
He talks around the issue. They saw themselves as partners in creating something and he saw them as employees. He refused to show them the books so they could be paid on the points they were promised. Joe saw himself as the boss and that the show couldn’t exist without him so he was entitled to the bigger cut and complete control. Joe didn’t want to disclose the real revenue created and they got tired of being jerked and lied to!
Not sure why everyone in the comments is acting like they think Joe isn't saying anything. Seems pretty clear to me, it isn't rocket science. The truth is somewhere in the middle. Can't just jump on either side with us on the outside looking in. We don't know everything.
Joe is good at saying nothing and having people think he’s playing 3D chess.
Lmaoo

Clearly it's alot of closed minded people because the stoopid shyt that happens on a daily is mind boggling
I don’t think that happens for people after 40. But I pray he figures it out.

Lets break it down from the owner perception. Let’s say they did take the percentage. If the show revenue is down you’ll feel it with a percentage. Salary is guaranteed no matter if the revenue is down. The salary may be less but it’s more likely they will get that salary amount rather having a fluctuating pay. But also no employee gets a percentage. If they signed a contract that stated they were getting a percentage off total revenue they are part owners. If this is in writing no matter what, they could sue for millions and win with no problem. Sound like they were just told this and had nothing in writing.
Joe wanted to put them in the place they made comfortable for themselves. They showed that they just wanted to come in work for an hour or 2 and dip. That sounds like someone that should be on salary. If they were bringing partnership deals to the table, or marketing plans that were viable then that would warrent a percentage based payout. If u move like an employee ima treat u like an employee. And don't get it twisted, their "salary" would have been 7 figures. Only 10% of the American population makes over 100k solo (not as a household). They felt like they provided alot by just showing up and talking. But just like an employee in any job when they left parks house, they didn't show much interest in building the show. They brought not much more then talking to the show. That deserves a check. Not a percentage.
The salary would have been more. They were just over it.
@@hippipdip why wouldn't they accept more money?? 🤔
this is STILL nasty to me. even after dust settled. i can't watch/listen to the pod for this reason. no accountability
Same
Ditto... Nasty Joe... Nasty!
Man I couldn’t even finish this clip. That man trash 🗑
It was a beef because Joe got in his feelings and tried to destroy Rory and Mal's reputation and said some foul stuff and brought it out to the public in the most disrespectful way. And now Mal doesn't F with him and Joe still wants that relationship. Him and Rory are now cool though. THis is EXACTLY why Ish and Ice BOTH have managers that represent with their contracts on the JBP.
Which is wtf mal and rory should've done. We in buisness now its not personal just buisness. Lawyer up and go over that black and white.
@@jasonwilliams9307 Yes, this is true. Ice and Ish didnt want to make the same mistakes trying to work out contracts/negotiating directly with Joe so they hired Managers to that. And since Joe brings it up now every other Pod, LOL, he is feeling a way about it. But Ice don't care that Joe don't like it. It's just a smart business move like you said. If anyone treats podcating like a business, it's definitely Ice. LOL.
Well Rory and mal never had an issue with making money off of “net” they weren’t shown what the “net” was lmao. How are you supposed to get a percentage of net profits and not know what the net profits are…..
1. It was an incentive laden comp plan; the higher the income the more R&M get.
2. They never had equity
3. They never had to sit behind expenses. When joe owns it, and there is no money, he needs to pay for expenses. R&M never need to sit behind expenses
4. SO when spotify money went dry…he was gonna pay them out of his own pocket and be responsible for that no matter how operations performed
5. It depends now, more expenses give them less profit sharing, so the accountants need to now make sure all expenses are valid that go through THE PODCAST business
6. All revenue legally contracted with JBP LLC, would be subject to the profit sharing plan
Did joe try to hide revenues by getting another LLC to sign sponsorship deals so R&M couldnt see it?
Did joe run expenses through so the pod had less income for R&M to participate in?
He said to audit him. That’s totally fine
Joe: I would DIE for a check weekly
Also joe: threw tantrum on complex when he was getting a salary lol
ALSO IF YOU WOULD DIE FOR A CHECK WEEKLY THEN GO GET A JOB JOE.
He was talking about during his rap career. You mfs don’t listen or only hear what you want to hear🤦🏽♂️
@@barrekelly he could have had his rap career and get a pay check. Same with love and hip hop.
I understood it different... he not used to a Job but he would like to have that... he wouldn't take thr salary thing now cause he used to gettin paid depending on his work n how good it is... he not tryna do numbers n get the same as if he dont...
His issue with complex wasn’t salary it was them having to market products and not get a cut. That’s extra not salary!!!!
Why can’t people see he’s full of it? If everything you do falls apart you don’t know what you’re doing…
He's completely FOS
They do. That’s why no one is responding. He’s over explaining himself bc joe knows he was gettin more money than them.
@@Thisguyrod he owned the network. He get paid twice as talent and owner. Why ppl don’t understand that?
@@Thisguyrod and he shouldn’t? He owns the platform. Them niggas was contractors and ain’t know it
@@stbcurt4250 That's their fault for not understanding they were contractors. If they were partners in the company, they should have an operating agreement specifying their partnership percentages, shares, etc. They were never partners.
Joe keeps comparing how he got paid in rap to the podcast. It’s not the same thing
a narcissit
Facts, its a completely new playing field. Joe just sees the floodgates about to happen and wanted complete ownership and crontrol. Wanted employees and not business partners
@@damogreen2560 could you blame him? His name is the shows title. I never thought it was anyone's show besides his.
Facts
@@Money6366 It didn't start that way. It was I'll Name This Podcast Later until episode 108.
Rory and Mal are in a way better place now. Really liking what they’re doing.
Let me just say this IM PROUD OF MATH!!! This platform turned into a mandatory stop in New York hip hop media and that's huge for Math and Battle rap. Back to Joe rambling
Keep the great content coming math
Joe’s a master at talkin but not saying anything
Just because you can’t understand it doesn’t mean he ain’t saying nothing lmaoo
His fan just don't get it
Lol and these niggas eat it up😂
For someone who prides himself as a media mogul, Joe is a closed book in interviews.
Many secrets
You don’t learn s**t in his interviews!
Well...what is he saying that he's not and why?what I'm hearing is he was putting in the work while they was putting in half the work but receiving the same ...but they feeling themselves to much to notice..and look like a asshole for saying it ..so he walking on eggshells so he dont look a way...thats what I get.
@Stacey Martin that is not what happened .. Mal and Rory wanted to see the books.. Joe wouldn't let them or kept dancing around it delaying them.. This cause Mal and Rory to question why someone would do that (especially a friend).. And the only logical conclusion is there's something to hide!I
Joe playing semantics by saying "we have creative differences" when it has nothing to do with the creative part, it's the business part, is a clear sign of his narcissistic mentality.. The fact Joe said himself "it's my podcast on my channel I don't have to" shows what type of time he was on (which again is ok in business but don't make out your friendship is more important and your a stand up dude with your ride or dies when clearly that isn't the case.early
Granted Rory and Mal should of had their business in order from the start BUT if we friends like that and the show grew with and because of the two co hosts (which it did) why would you want your so called "friends" to be in salaries instead of having ownership WHICH JOE IS A ADVOCATE FOR?! It's backward and contradicting so I can say I smell a d rider or disingenuous person when they try miss the actual reason to push Joes deluded version 🤦🏾♂️
@@azlstrhl end of the day it’s his show, we all knew of budden before the pod. Rory and mal were barely known, Joe has the name it’s his show of course he runs it.
This friendship thing is clouding y’all head, they didn’t do equal work to be paid equal. If they were equals they wouldn’t have had that little strike on the show. Workers go on strike, the boss (joe) shows up and has to get it done no matter what because its HIS business.
Joe is the type to explain a question and never answer it.
He basically said it was money.
🤣🤣🤣
Joe word for word on the Clearing the air JBP Episode: “I never thought I’d see the day that you two wouldn’t show up here”
Turns around and says he saw the writing on the wall 😂😂😂😂
He’s a pathological liar
@@juallen4396 you didn’t read my statement correctly, has nothing to do with a zodiac.
💀💀💀💀💀
Joe said he is talking "in hindsight". Pay attention.
@@Eiuol81853 your name sounds like a virus that hasn’t been discovered yet.
Hindsight doesn’t matter when you’ve said what you said
Pay attention euiol
Funny how he threw in 3 million as an example of salary refusal, then pulled it back by saying “whatever the salary is”, because he didn’t want to be on the hook for quoting a specific dollar offer that he knew wasn’t close to what was actually proposed.
If you know how to read people you’re ahead of the game.
Plus in the past when explaining his side he tried to make it out like he was trying to give everybody a raise. But without showing the real certified accounting. How are they supposed to even know if that is really a raise without seeing the paperwork?
Or, and hear me out…it was a completely hypocritical example
@@firstname2022 😂😂
@5thElementSandwhich You must be Mal or Rory in disguise
@@timoaksproductions no. I’m just someone who has the ability to be objective, while at the same time being a fan. I like Joe, but he stay capping. He can’t be trusted with the bag. We all know someone like that, and have kept them at a distance unless otherwise necessary.
These comments are chewing Joe's ass up *Pause* Joe can never take blame or accountability smh
I dont believe Joe
He's a master of switching narratives
That's what he always did
Oh my lord! This man should be a politician with the way he answers a question but never answers a question. Soooo many words. The waving of the arms. The voice inflections. But it means nothing.
Word Salad
MAAAAAAAAAAAATH!!!! Mane I got luv 4 this dude n I’m just soooo proud of the success…not to mention this man done pulled off a podcast with such a balance between a street feel yet so progressive at the same time. Kudos
Math always kills it with the topics
Joe Budden's problem might be because he's a great talent he thinks he's great at business. And when business is good everything is easy. But when issues arise that's when you know how good you really are.
The issue with Dame Dash belittling people for having a lack of ownership was the assumption that everyone is meant to be an owner. Some people are just talent they're not businessmen.
Joe Budden is a great talent but a bad business runner and operator. He blew up the Spotify deal without a game plan and was stuck when he couldn't pay his cohost.
People need to know their strengths and weaknesses!
Math and the crew I love the way you get an interview and break it up into segments, Very smart its frustrating a little as a fan as in this case the convo was just getting good then it ended but still very smart. Great job to you and your entire team. 92,000 VIEW ONLY 2000 LIKES COME ON YALL HIT THAT "LIKE" BUTTON so the homie Math and grow larger
Definitely one of the most important facts: Figuring it out by yourself!
Joe & Math! ONLY 2 pods I watch!
💪🏽🔥💪🏽
Math caught Joey on that last question...good job math
This interview has proved that he boldfaced acted like he was a friend and was plotting to drop them.. if the writing was there he would have said. At the end we are going different directions. Not trick them into changing the name and then telling them to dip..
Literally told Rory the writing was on the wall
Even based on his explanation it’s financial differences, not creative differences.
Salary means employee…. Employee means tax break for joe and not for mal and Rory…. 🤷♂️
One of the realist channels on TH-cam 💯
The clock is always ticking for you when Joe Budden is involved
It's several issues here. Joe probably was giving them a great contract in comparison to his bad rap contracts. I believe he was looking out for them in his mind. The problem is they needed or wanted to judge that for themselves with seeing the overall deal. The number 1 issue is they considered themselves partners and not employees. In my opinion they never should have allowed the name change. I feel like it went downhill from there.
Charlemagne told them
My older brother said the same thing. Naming it “the joe Budden podcast” was a bad idea.
Man a partnership doesn't start with a name change you have to PUT MONEY UP. They never did so they have no claim to ownership
@@coachtali5151 that’s where you’re wrong, they all contributed. Joes podcast was also trash before Rory came, then Mal shortly after… money doesn’t equal ownership that’s a fact. There’s a reason ideas and voices are valued the way they are. Joe would even be here if it was for Peter Rosenberg.
No one in there right mind would take a salary not knowing what the overall money was… why would someone take 3 mil a year if you making 300 mil a year???
Man Joe was one of my favorite rappers, "walk with me" is super dope...and his "mood musik" mixtape series are incredible and underrated.
Def Jam Fight 4 NY
"pray for me" off Padded room is my jam
A disagreement about money is not a creative difference🤦♂️
Matt asked a really good question at the end. And I just know Joe about to dodge it.
The creative difference is that Joe wasn’t showing the accounting and they wanted to see it 😂🤣
And he didn't have to, that's his shit! Nigga I pay you what I want to pay you! Tf lol... It's simple!
😂😂😂
That's legit the opposite of equity partnership
And unfortunately for the co-hosts, Joe doesn't owe them any accounting. He was signed to Spotify, they weren't. Thats Joe's contract. Not Rory and Mal's
@@mauricestewart8472 the podcast was signed to Spotify. not joe by himself.
Buddens always eurosteppin accountability in every situation he’s been in
It’s always everyone else’s fault except for Joe
Room spinnin around like Jamiriqui
This interview is a great example of "creative differences". Different men with different opinions / views but they're able to sit and talk like adults without the bullshit.
When $ becomes part of the equation you need to watch EVERYONE around you and pay attention to the way they move.
Everybody time is ticking when you dealing with Joe 😂
That’s the problem
$3 Million sounds like a lot but how much was the show making in total? they wanted percentage for that reason. Joe a funny dude.
If Joe said whatever y'all want him to say it doesn't change how people will feel about him. Ask Will Smith if public apologies and remorse save your reputation or not. Joe's reputation will never be salvaged and I don't think he should care to save it
And that’s the answer. Regardless of what he said , he’ll be the problem. What’s not being said is regardless who’s with him, the podcast does numbers
@@shamalisaac7742 exactly
Evey one focused on the money he making now, nobody thinking about all the money he probably missing because people rather not work with him because he never takes accountability.
I seen Math Hoffa and them break up now I see the why there was so much animosity on this episode.
Love Joe man. Hustle is air tight
you don't go from partner to salary
You didn’t have creative differences you had financial differences lol
And let’s be honest Joe wasn’t buddy buddy with a lot in the new industry and Mal and Rory definitely showed him the outside. He became more likeable most definitely because of them and the dynamic. He uses people. Great MC tho
Their value is not in question. Their ownership stake was/is. They weren't legal partners / owners of Joe Budden's Podcast. They were contractors.
@@blockwriters5728 Whatever you want to call it. Their contract said that they got a percentage of the profits. And he keeps trying to talk around that he was taking some of those profits and putting them into other podcasts before paying them. Which affects that "net" that he is referring to in this video. Something that they never agreed to.
@@Wizznilliam if you get paid what you are signed for without a missed payment or late payment he did his job str8 up.
@@jasonwilliams9307
That's the problem! If your payment that you SIGNED for says that you get a percentage then there is no way to verify that you are being paid the right amount without actually seeing the real numbers. That's the whole point that they are making that seems to just fly over everyone's head.
Trying to force someone who doesn't want to be on salary to go on salary is not a "creative" difference!
All that stuff Joe named doesn't exist anymore though (Everyday Struggle, State of the Culture, Pull Up and all the other shows on his network)
It’s hard to do business with friends because if business goes bad you still want to see them again
They was his roommates …at first not really day 1s. . Right !! I don’t see why he should have held on to them
Greediness!!!!!
money is your friend, ( it’s who you want to always see and have with you )
fuck people ! they disappoint always ( who wants to still see them? please )
@@sonicmagnus5312 the realness right here can't put your trust in mankind
This man Joe literally made NO SENSE 🤦🏾♂️😂
I saw this coming too when the spotify deal was over and Mal was calling fans idiots for saying Joe didn't handle it right. Deep down Mal and Rory were furious because they didn't get paid and didn't own sh... They were lying to themselves and I guarantee they had an exit plan and deal on the table without Joe
It’s not just them tho look at the other podcasts that were on his network. That girl show had people leaving because of his fuck shit too
@@HennyAnderson I listen to that girl show from time to time . First girl left because they didn't get along. The pod itself left because they failed to attract people. They asked to be release. What's interesting is that in mal, Rory, girl pod... Joseph let them go without triggering a no compete clause. Personally I would made the boys sit down for 6 months and not allow them to hurt my business
That damn gunshot at the end with AirPods on is life threatening. 😂
joe is the king of deflecting , crazy how i was introduced to rory and mal by joe and respect them more
Captivating interview right here. Great stuff!
ummm, people know when to say it was creative differences if creative differences were the case 🙄
My only question is, if he did steal why aren’t they suing him for the money they say he stole. It’s literally that simple. All this constant back and forth is stupid.
Yeah math. Keep up the good work. Nice set up and everything.
Creative differences or accounting differences. Dude is full of it dawg
Joe could definitely host a show by himself now that he more seasoned and he's also entertaining to watch when he gets invested in a topic🤣🤣
For some reason he still don't. it's like he needs co-host
naw,Joe the pod father..he can knock them shitsbout on his own,just him and parks
Listening to joe for 3 hrs twice a week plus pateron is Disgusting
Facts
Joey a professional liar, that’s dangerous. He really can express it as truth
He is good too. He can twist things just enough to get you to drop it and move on.
What did he lie about?🤣 Yall act like if he said "I didn't want to show them the accounting so they left"... it would be the truth somehow.🤣
@@zetsutsuletsu2034 right i know joe is easy to hate but what makes anyone else more credible than him. Niggas will listen to literally anyone say something and believe that as fact over joe
We should be lucky he doesn't study a particular discipline that can really help him do this far better than he does on his own
Joes ability to lie is both his best gift and worst curse
Mr. Budden did right keep grinding for his success. Like he was telling others you need to pay attention to your surroundings in order to learn how to get ahead. Less talk and more observance.
"TWO different things..."
"RIIIGHT..."
TOO funny*lololz*..................
Joe running laps of confusion! Keep it real Bro 😎
The non business people will never understand Joe decision.. Mal & Rory still hadn't brought anything but a new show where Mal magically talks more😐...creative difference🤷🏽♂️
Ugh I don't see ish and ice as much difference ..
they know their role
He talks around the issue. They saw themselves as partners in creating something and he saw them as employees. He refused to show them the books so they could be paid on the points they were promised. Joe saw himself as the boss and that the show couldn’t exist without him so he was entitled to the bigger cut and complete control. Joe didn’t want to disclose the real revenue created and they got tired of being jerked and lied to!
Exactly. 🙏🏽
Not sure why everyone in the comments is acting like they think Joe isn't saying anything. Seems pretty clear to me, it isn't rocket science. The truth is somewhere in the middle. Can't just jump on either side with us on the outside looking in. We don't know everything.
He just really like hearing himself talk.
This was good, Math to 500k on the way!
