The New York rapper spoke on The Jason Lee Show about how she feels her and Budden have a close enough relationship for him to be honest.

Remy Ma recently appeared on The Jason Lee Show and said that Joe Budden should stop trolling about his sexuality. Moreover, many believe that some of the rapper and commentator's past comments hint at him being LGBTQIA+. Remy's message to Budden, though, is in the context of a close relationship, as they cohosted State of the Culture together. Of course, he hasn't strictly confirmed anything or gone into more detail concerning his sexuality. Still, the New York hi-hop legend wants the podcaster to quit with the games and open up.

“I gotta call Joe," Remy told Jason Lee on his RevoltTV show. "Because I feel like we’re close enough for him to be honest with me about his sexuality… Because I be confused." However, Lee offered some pushback, suggesting that the media personality is just trolling. In response, she told Budden to either clarify things or stop making references to his sexuality altogether. “Yeah, but stop!" the "All The Way Up" spitter responded to Lee. "He got me out in the streets arguing with people in his defense.”

Furthermore, rumors first circled of the Slaughterhouse MC's sexuality back in 2021. On an episode of his show, he briefly remarked that he "likes guys and girls," first prompting Internet sleuths to speculate. Later, the former Everyday Struggle host tweeted a message seemingly addressing the conversation. “I see the word got out!! Continue to spread the word [please].” In fact, his ex-girlfriend Tahiry Jose suggested that Joe might be open to new things. In addition, rumors sparked again after he said he'd "break" Lil Fizz, reacting to his nudes allegedly leaking. Also, he made a joke about making "fizz" come out of the singer, reality show star, and B2K member.

"I am not gay or bisexual. I’m flattered,” Joe remarked in a subsequent episode of his radio show and podcast. “What I said about Fizz, I was joking. That was a joke, but you never know how the joke feels until you’re on the other side of it.” While she took a moment to talk about Budden, Remy Ma actually went to The Jason Lee Show to promote her upcoming rap battle. Regardless, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest on Joe Budden & Remy Ma.
