Who Is Joe Budden
Featured Tracks:
Joe Budden has defined himself as an intensely emotional tough guy who has never stopped putting everything out there, but the New Jersey rapper’s best music has frequently cut inward. Throughout his Mood Muzik mixtape-series-turned-brand, Budden has picked at and peeled away his depression, addiction, and the many embarrassments he’s collected as an eager public figure. When he’s down, he opens up.
In many ways Budden is an under-acknowledged trailblazer of hip-hop’s 21st century relationship with the Internet, ahead of his time in living for and through the web as much as alongside it. He nurtured his online fans before it was an obvious play, earning and grooming a cult following of lyric-obsessed hip-hop heads, some of whom prize his legitimate emo leanings, and some who just love bars.
On his new album, Rage & the Machine, Budden’s music is less moody but as densely lyrical as ever. His raps have long leaned on the preferred devices of the competitive lyricism he exemplifies: puns, metaphors, clever topicality. “I used to drive around the tunnel in a Lexus with a snub/Before Power 105 was sneaking breakfast in the club,” he raps on “Uncle Joe,” a track that plays on his preferred trope of bitter contempt for the current state of hip-hop.
The record is produced almost entirely by the Providence beatmaker AraabMUZIK, a 27-year-old whose pyrotechnic pad-smashing earned him viral YouTube fame as an MPC whiz. AraabMUZIK, whose given name is Abraham Orellana, has been generously collaborative and experimental, producing for the Diplomats and many others in a meandering career. Unfortunately, Rage & the Machine skips over Orellana’s most interesting inclinations—forward-looking fusions of electronic, dance, and street hip-hop—in favor of his most traditional ones, an unfortunate fit for Budden’s reductionist New York rap nostalgia.
AraabMUZIK isn’t the type to dwell on a beat, and has established a formula of programming drums that is both finicky and mechanical. On a song like “Flex,” a conspicuous lead single that features Fabolous and Tory Lanez, he piles drum sounds onto each other expertly before haphazardly triggering a sample atop. With a breathless, high-word-count approach to lyricism, Budden benefits from the boxed-in nature of AraabMUZIK percussion, which give him a wall to push against. “Forget” is one of the best bits of matchmaking, a short, verse-only ramble on a boom bap 2.0 beat that lets both artists play to their talents. “I Gotta Ask” is a committed Jay Z homage; instead of an Annie number, !llmind flips a Sondheim stage song into similarly whimsical territory. Budden adopts Jay’s cadence to run down his preferred list of boasts and persistent complaints.
Elsewhere, some songs arrive a little late to the party in borrowed clothes. “I Wanna Know” samples a Manhattans loop which was also the thrust of a standout Madlib beat on Freddie Gibbs’ 2014 breakout album Piñata. Sample recycling might not be the faux pas it once was in hip-hop—Madlib himself wasn’t the first to pull this record—but AraabMUZIK’s simple chop and pitch-up make it feel like a blatant beatjack. On a separate song, a separate infraction: “Time for Work” has a hook sung by Emanny that he must have written while listening to Jeremih’s “Don’t Tell ’Em,” because the melody is all but the same. More generally, Budden has struggled with making catchy songs and this album carries a couple clunkers with gawky hooks.
To the rapper’s credit, Rage & the Machine is one of his more accessible records, less emotionally insular than usual, but perhaps a little cold for that reason. It’s not a redesign as much as a measured refinement. There’s a fan service aspect to Budden’s music by now that hinges on his fixed audience. “What you expecting from me?/Why else you checking for me?,” the singer Jazzy wonders on a track called “By Law.” If you’re listening to a Joe Budden album in 2016, you probably already know what you’re in for.

Album Review Joe Budden Rage And The Machine. Harlem`s very own, Mr Joe Budden is officially open to discuss his latest studio project “Rage & The Machine”, his sixth, in a raw with eleven tracks to it, waiting patiently in line to be heavily reviewed by global ears. The record is entirely produced by AraabMuzik which speaks for it self about the upfront expectations for the quality of the music deed.
LP was dropped on October 21st, with our boy`s crazy announcement, a month before that by jumping out of a plane exclusively on “Complex”…. Talkin` about it after hitting the ground safely, Budden says he`s proud of his son, and of his own maturity, of the Hip Hop look today and he is just “happy” about the whole situation. Seems like the suit fits just right. So much, that he also announces the “R&TM 2” in the near future. Awesome news. But we have already gone too far, so I think it`s time we first spray some critique sparkles on the first part right here.
Album Review Joe Budden Rage But Who`s The Machine?
Later in his promo video Joe explained and called himself The Rage, but what about that Machine work? Well, he said it`s different, but dope and it fits perfectly in the here and now time. Also, he confirmed that The Slaughterhouse team will be back together soon, so I hope Joe delivers well before we inhale the next dose.

On “Three” Budden starts off as he declared, strong, no, aggressively pressuring the anger out in an animal sweep off. In the old schooled drumming arrangement, with heavy bass lines and dark key notes, accenting the mood with choir chant sampling, the roars and dim atmosphere pre-define something really serious in “Rage & The Machine” act. Budden claims his spot in the music industry, making his dues highly payable and making the other cats remember the importance of his roll in it. “Uncle Joe” represents a new Joe Budden life status, his fat reputation and in the same musical background theme, Joe explains why he is “The Uncle” in this game… “Staring at you new niggas still from an older state, Its feeling like Oscar Robertson watching Golden State. Yall hear Post Malone and think of 'White Iverson', I think of Karl and how he couldve got the title won. I keep my life off Instagram like my private some, I open albums for the credits, yall just Tidal`em.' I mean, the lyrical skill in undeniable here. First collab with Joell Ortiz 'Serious', brings, yes, you got it, more seriousness to this dopeness. In a army combo march we can hear the anthem lyrics like:
'You niggas want war? Trust me you don't want war Homeboy, you don't know how serious it could be Man, the feeling starts, it's a million man march
No games, all my soldiers as serious as can be be.'
Game faces are on and this classic street club jam brings short beefed up story line in a G Unit from way back time.
My first favourite pick is “By Law”, second collaborative project with extraordinary soul bird Jazzy, softening up the drama behind closed doors. While the drums keep dancing on each other fading in despair, J&J tandem rocks them up a notch with mesmerizing singing adaptation and floating slick lyricism in the second verse, making it one of the strongest spits I have heard in a while:
“Look what the Lords been again
Straight from the horses jaws of hay
With an enormous rage weighin’
Unfortunate we don’t know the origin but it’s important is all they sayin`
This a formal statement
The airports are delaying got reporters waiting
Live from a caucus in a Secaucus basement
For Rage to leave the cage like a lawless agent
A psycho ward patient that’s often pacing
Was Rage dragging a corpse like a dog with Steak-umms
For the organization’s inauguration
I got shooters on call with the 4’s just aching
In the four door Explorer with the awful gray tints
Notes over ya head, this a orchestration
How it is when the author give the authorization
Imploring you all to ignore the baiting
You gon give ya opinion, they gon` call it hatin`
By law”. Goose bump work of art.
The most known hit from the album, a third collaboration with Fabolous and Tory Lanez titled “Flex”, a romantic audio flick, that rolls off quietly and gently, letting all the emotions slide under the love carpet… Love the production arrangement by Araab here, slow, yet boomy and fully fitted with those crazy shaker/clash moments of percussion involvement, great job. Another short bar action move happens with the reminiscing “Forget” phonic, a vintage sampled beat with distant memory recollections of Joe Budden secret recipe. No. 7 and “I Gotta Ask” joint, hits that New York swag of the street pavements, AraabMuzik really putting all the work there, with heavy snare hits and thin strong exf transitions, and the incredible drops where Budden slams his bar on fire like this:
“Bad strippers, and fraudulent hourglass figures
Got every bartender thinkin’ she’ll get a glass slipper
You see a line of bottles comin’, guess who orderin’ ’em
I’m pointin’ at one, they all coming in”.
This part is most striking short part that not too many could execute. Wonderful job.

And moving on it`s “Time For Work”, and another artist to join the team hustle on mic, featuring Emanny, stands out with lyrics, as Joe really masters them all, but is kind of weak on the hook part, at least for my and my taste. Its like too much of a contrast for the current Rap flow, way too off track and too soft for the whole theme. Weak link there. Three more tracks to go and I`m at number 9, the 'Wrong One', Joe going harder like on the start line, switching into fifth gear again and showing off his bulked ego and slayer machine functionality. Trap awakening all up in here. And well, am I exited to hear Stacy Barthe on this album though.... A wonderful imprint of cheerful soul jamming in 'I Wanna Know' duet where Stacy`s words 'I wanna know what this life's supposed to be like' deeply resonate inside me... New York hearts warmer single. For the finishing spot, Joe picked 'Idols', a thankful note like rendition, where Author recalls his idols and the stars that shaped his creative mind... And I leave this open letter open for you fans to explore with only couple of highlighted wise words: 'Don’t take a genius to see the genius is stewing', but make sure you pick them lyrics up and read this wisdom message all the way to the last word... My second best jam on 'Rage & The Machine'.
