Joe Budden has come under fire from Sexyy Red for implying that Drake is only collaborating with him because he gets paid to promote her.

The former Slaughterhouse rapper, in an interview on his own podcast, proposed a hypothesis regarding Drizzy’s close relationship with his ‘Rich Baby Daddy’ partner.

“With all due respect, that sounds like an n-gga who could get paid off of everyone’s deal trying to rap at that level.” To me, it sounds like that,” Budden remarked. “Oh, you suppose he just enjoys spending so much time with Sexyy Red? I can think of a few more names.

In addition, Drake seemed to respond to Budden when he shared a photo of the rapper on Instagram Stories with the remark, “What’s the vibe in NY?”

Lately, Sexyy Red has been responding a lot, especially to Adin Ross who said they had slept together.

Last month, the well-known streamer posted on his Kick channel, saying, “I want to announce something, but I’m not sure if I should say it.” I had sex with Sexy Red. It was excellent. It was excellent. She was sort of taking the lead.

He went on: “I jerked off to it and that’s what made me hit her up,” alluding to the rapper’s leaked sex tape. I am being sincere.

“You paid me to take yo virginity & I did just that… next,” tweeted Sexyy in retaliation.

The “Pound Town” hitmaker denied having sex with Ross in a subsequent post, taking a more sombre tone: “SIKE you couldn’t touch me wit ah stick.”
