Joe Budden wanted to attack Logic after he watched his recent interview featuring his father. In a recent episode of The Joe Budden Podcast, the New Jersey native discussed the Maryland emcee’s conversation with his pops, Robert Bryson Hall Sr. The controversial talking head didn’t hold back. He criticized him for the emotional content and slammed him for speaking ill of his parents.

“I feel sorry for him,” the podcast personality expressed. “I feel sorry for the people that feel they have to speak down on their parents ’cause they have resentment. And if you wanna do that, you don’t have to do that on camera for the sake of content.”

Budden’s co-host, Queenz Flip, also chimed in on the matter. He labeled his actions “corny” and insisted that his father should’ve “slapped” him for disrespecting him on camera. Flip then asserted that Logic wasn’t actually Black. Joe then returned with more opinions, stating that the producer is harboring “a lot of self-hate,” which made him want to “smack” Logic, as well.

“I think Logic has a lot of that self-hate inside of him, and it comes out in these weird ways,” Joe continued. “I wanted to smack Logic for talking to his dad like that. I see that sh*t and pray for him.”

“I didn’t need this interview to know that Logic hates his dad… You have no problem leasing the Blackness that dad gave you even though, by your admission, you and dad are not [close]. So now you think it’s comfortable for you to sit in front of your Black father’s face and say, ‘Ni**a.’ You think you got a lot of passes that I don’t believe you to have. That’s how a lot of his music comes off to me. My beef with Logic is his internal identity crisis that he has with himself.”

The interview that both Budden and Queenz are referring to is a conversation that debuted on Logic’s podcast, Logically Speaking. The Tuesday (Feb. 6) video titled “I Cried With My Dad And Confronted Our Trauma” featured the Young Sinatra rapper talking candidly to his father about his life growing up.

At one point in the video, Logic begins to cry as he tells his father about the trauma he endured having Robert Sr. be a “deadbeat dad.” Logic opened the dialogue with his father and asked him about whether being addicted to drugs was more important than being a dad.

“There’s a part of me that has grown and developed mentally, but there is still that little boy that’s still waiting on the curb for his dad,” he says, almost red in the face.

“I waited every weekend, and you never showed up… I’m a man of my word today because you aren’t,” he continued. “I want you to know that it really hurt [and] I just want to ask: what is it like as a man who used a substance that would allow you to make that little boy wait forever? Was it worth it?”

Robert answered, noticeably raddled by his son’s tears and demeanor. However, he admitted that he made the wrong decision. Hall insisted that he would do things differently if he could do it over knowing what he knows today.

“It felt like being in hell. It felt like having something control me. Like Rick James said, ‘Cocaine’s a hell of a drug.’ I was young, self-centered and stupid as f**k, but if I knew then what I knew now, my life would probably be different,” he said.
