AceShowbiz - Joe Budden had a few words to say about Frank Ocean following his Coachella exit. When weighing in on the matter on "The Joe Budden Podcast", Joe dubbed the Grammy winner a "scammer" because this was not the only antics he has done over the years.
"Frank Ocean is a scammer," the 42-year-old first stated. "He's a scammer for the way he got out of his [Def Jam] Universal contract. I think most of the scams are genius. He'll always wear the scammer tag for me. That f**ked up a lot of artists, he didn't care. Lost a lot of artist revenue streams, took Apple out the game, he didn't care."
"But I'm not so mad at that. Apple exclusive deals where Apple comes and pays a s**t-ton of money to come have the project exclusive to Apple for a week, two weeks, something like that," the New York native continued. "Frank Ocean was in his Def Jam contract so he could not do that. He had one album left to deliver to Def Jam and they had a hard time negotiating around that."
Joe went on to claim, "It's rumored that Apple gave Frank Ocean the money to give Def Jam to even everything out and handed them an album, and then he was out of that deal." He then added, 'But then the very next day, he put out the other album on Apple."
Of Franks' controversial Coachella moment, Joe fumed, "I'd smack the s**t out of you." He then argued, "What the f**k are you talking about, you f**king idiot?! Everybody is here for your stupid a** who ain't put out music in ages, and you can't even confirm if there's new music coming?! The arrogance of these n***as, yo."
