The Joe Budden Podcast struck a deal with Spotify that entails the show's exclusive availability on the platform as of September 12. Joe Budden and his co-hosts will be doubling their content by dropping a new episode every Wednesday and Saturday.
The podcast will retain its raw character as Budden, along with Rory and Mal, discuss hot topics in Hip Hop, and interview industry personalities and cultural luminaries.
Joe Budden shared his gratitude for this new endeavor in a statement.
"I’d like to thank Spotify for this tremendous opportunity to take The Joe Budden Podcast and podcasting in general to heights never before seen. Our partnership is extremely humbling for me and adds yet another chapter to a career full of plot twists. This highlights a new way of thinking & a corporate “head nod” to the shift taking place before our very eyes. I’m even more thrilled to embark on this journey with some of my closest friends & ppl i love. The podcast has been a great amplifier for my voice but fast growing into a platform for more & more artists to share their own personal feelings/stories/experiences."
Courtney Holt, head of Spotify Studios is as thrilled.
"As we continue to expand and diversify our content slate, teaming up with The Joe Budden Podcast is an exciting move for Spotify. We can’t wait to bring Joe’s loyal fans more of what they already love, and offer the opportunity for new hip-hop fans to discover him and listen.”
