The past will inevitably haunt you in the Internet era.

There's a lot of people who are more familiar with Joe Budden for his efforts in the media than his days as a rapper. He was undoubtedly at his commercial peak in the mid-2000's, but true fans of his are aware of his Mood Muzik series and the other dope projects he released over the years. However, his fashion choices from that era are coming back to haunt him. The rapper recently became a meme all over Twitter for his choice of oversized wardrobe in the early 2000's.

Joe Budden is at the receiving end of the Internet's jokes after photos of him dressed up in classic, oversized clothes in the early 2000's began to surface. However, fans aren't just clowning his wardrobe from back then. They're comparing the fact that he still wears oversized clothes today and essentially looks like a wizard with his recent fashion choices. 

While the internet's been busy getting at Budden for this "our ice cream machine broke" 13's and the fact that he wore a basketball jersey on top of a football jersey at one point, he revealed that his son's friend has been clowning him about the photo that's been surfacing.

Budden is clearly finding all of these memes as funny as the rest of us. Peep some of the best takes on his fashion choices below.
