<p>Joe Budden has once again stepped into the chat, and this time he&#8217;s shading none other than Megan Thee Stallion.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">Joe Budden Is NOT A Member Of The Hotties</h3>
<p>His comments came during the latest episode of <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUOHQAzREng" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>The Joe Budden Podcast</em></a>, which premiered on Sunday.</p>
<p>While discussing the ongoing <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/exclusive-megan-thee-stallions-former-bodyguard-goes-missing-before-scheduled-testimony/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tory Lanez assault trial</a>, Joe took a moment to speak on why exactly he isn&#8217;t here for Megan Thee Stallion. Specifically, he explained that he&#8217;s not a fan of how she treats certain people in the rap game.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>&#8220;I stand in my dislike&#8230;Personally,</strong> I&#8217;ve seen this woman do horrible things to some really great people that I have longstanding relationships with in this industry, so I’m biased. You can&#8217;t just treat my friends and people I f**k with and people I’ve seen in this game for 15 years a certain way.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Budden went on to clarify that, while Megan &#8220;could be amazing&#8221; as a person, he&#8217;s only speaking on her business decisions.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I&#8217;m talking about her and what she&#8217;s chosen to do professionally. I wanna be clear, I don&#8217;t know her as a person. She could be amazing. But there&#8217;s a lot to deal with when you sign, and a lot happens fast.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>So, it looks like it&#8217;s a safe bet that Joe won&#8217;t be bumping Megan anytime soon, unless he&#8217;s one of the &#8220;secret Hotties&#8221; who the rapper shouted out on &#8220;Tuned In Freestyle.&#8221;</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">His Comments Come On The Heels Of Megan &; Tory&#8217;s Trial Kicking Off</h3>
<p>As mentioned, Budden&#8217;s comments come as the 2020 case between Megan and Tory Lanez takes center stage in court. The trial kicked off last week, and headlines centering on subjects from <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/megan-thee-stallion-tearfully-testifies-tory-lanez-offered-her-1-million-to-keep-quiet-about-shooting-shares-suicidal-thoughts/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Megan&#8217;s revelations</a> to <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/exclusive-megan-thee-stallions-attorney-says-its-clear-kelsey-nicole-has-been-compromised-after-changing-her-testimony-whether-threat-or-bribe-were-looking-into-it/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kelsey Harris&#8217; testimony</a> have been making headlines.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Joe Budden May Have His Own Legal Matter To Handle</h3>
<p>While Joe&#8217;s busy speaking his mind on Megan, we should add that he could have bigger fish to fry on account of a recent legal development.</p>
<p>As <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/xxxtentacion-murder-trial-drake-6ix9ine-among-all-star-list-of-potential-witnesses/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>The Shade Room</em></a> previously reported, Joe Budden was one of the many hip hop figures who were included on the potential witness list for XXXTentacion&#8217;s murder trial. On top of Budden, celebs like Drake, 6ix9ine, Offset, Quavo, and 600 Breezy were named as well, though it&#8217;s unclear if any of them will actually be called to testify.</p>
