Joe Budden has weighed in on Drake and Future's relationship.

Joe Budden discussed Drake's relationship with Future during the latest episode of his podcast, admitting that if he were in the Toronto rapper's shoes, he'd never forgive Future for siding with Kendrick Lamar and Metro Boomin in their recent feud with him. Budden explained that while he'd love to hear more collaborations between the two, he's fine with them never repairing their relationship.

"I'm not gonna lie to y'all. If I'm Drake, it's up for life. Forever and ever and ever. I'm never working with none of you. I don't think that's gonna happen," Budden said of Drake and Future. From there, he agreed that's he's cool with the two never working together because they've already made enough great music. "As a selfish fan, I'm cool either way," he said.

Future and Metro Boomin famously hosted Kendrick Lamar's initial verse on "Like That," earlier this year, which set off the viral beef with Drake. On the track, he viciously targeted both Drake and J. Cole. In the ensuing months, Drake and Lamar traded numerous diss tracks, which ended in most fans declaring Lamar the victor. More recently, Young Thug used his platform on social media to advocate for the two to make amends and get back in the studio. Future reshared the post on X (formerly Twitter).
