Joe Budden says he otherwise doesn't have a problem with the streamer.

Joe Budden says that he doesn't have any problem with Kai Cenat, despite taking serious issue with the streamer's infamous New York City giveaway that resulted in an all-out riot, last year. He discussed his feelings on Cenat while speaking with Lil Yachty for a new interview, remarking that the giveaway offended him "as a New Yorker."

Budden began by claiming he doesn’t have an issue with Cenat. “Why would you think I have a problem with Kai?” he asked. “After all I’ve learned from us, you think I would turn around seven years later and do it again?” From there, he admitted that he does know where the narrative started. “That stunt he pulled on 14th Street, Union Square. That’s where it started for me… On a Friday on 14th Street, Union Square, New York City, that operates from Atlanta. Yes, I had a big issue with that as a New Yorker.”
