THIS IS IN RESPONSE TO JOE BUDDENS PROBLEM WITH VIBE'S RAP BRACKET. This video shows MELLE MEL in the Summer of 2004 with Grandmaster Caz on the wheels of steel and Prince Whipper Whip on the mic.
Melle Mel is going acapella and SMASHING on EVERY MC including 50 CENT, PAC and, BIGGIE. NO HOLDS BARRED BATTLE RAP. MELLE MEL IS STILL THE KING. JOE BUDDENS COULD NEVER TOUCH THE OG WHO PAVED THE WAY FOR ALL RAPPERS AND EMCEES. (The entire version can be purchased on 87 WAYS DVD MIXTAPE.)
@kda5 you sure about that? what has Joe said that has stuck to people for years, Melle has droped rhymes that tested time, so you saying just cause time goes by someoe cant MC no more? it ait 85 so does that mea shawtly lo, gucci and them are better cause it aint 85?, Melle created something from nothing Joe had plenty of people to study , try to create something from nothing then get back to me, like Chino XL said dont ask Chino who bettter Chino or Em or Pun he said the old school

the new rappers need fame ,so, they listen to their musical producers and their record companies.The record companies listen to the US goverment.The goverment do not want songs with revolutionary or social lyrics...did anybody see where is Tracey Chapman;

Joe Budden speaking on Melle Mel is like a non all-star in today's NBA speaking on Magic Johnson, Larry Bird or Bill Russell. Give me a break. Budden isn't even relevant in his era. Melle Mel owned his, therefore on a list of the greatest rappers of all-time, he MUST outrank. Period. End of Story.

Disrespecting legends is prohibited! If there's an issue it needs to be resolved as men. You should never attack those who've paved the way for u!!! This is Hip-Hop rebuke.

Joe Budden would murder Melle now. No disrespect but this isn't 1985.

Joe clearly made a mistake by saying what he did, well perhaps not because not alot of people will take notice of it, but asking if Mel rap in 2009 was just a foolish thing to say.
