The fact is, all of Slaughterhouse, including Crooked I defended Joe's original statement that he could out rap Methodman. That being the case, I don't see why he wouldn't defend him now. I'll agree that the original statement was a pretty bold statement for Joe to make. But Joe didn't physically assault anyone. He apologized to Methodman for what he said. That really should have been the end of it. Now that someone in Methodman's entourage punched Joe Budden, I think everyone in Slaughterhouse has to support their fellow group member. No one will take the group seriously if they don't.

Something that has been a part of Hip Hop since it's birth and the only way Crooked should defend him is on wax 'cause the word is that he didn't attempt to defend himself. Crooked ain't no damn super hero his ass would get rushed the same way so this nigga is not going to save the day if he jumps to Budden's defense.I don't understand why it came to this conclusion(if this is the end of it) when both are good lyricists and could battle it out on some real shit.

To clarify, I thought that the question posed in the thread was referring to Crooked I defending Joe on wax. But I guess, now that you raised the point, it could also refer to whether or not Crooked I should defend Joe Budden in a potential physical altercation. When I was raising my earlier points, I meant that Crooked I should defend Joe Budden on wax or in a moral support type of situation (publicly condemning Raekwon's actions etc.) I didn't mean that it was Crooked I's responsibility to take on Raekwon's entourage in a physical fight. I think whether or not Crooked I should get involved in something like that would depend on the specifics of the altercation. If Raekwon would be willing to face Joe Budden one-on-one, then I don't think anyone else should get involved, on either side. But if a situation were to arise where Crooked I could help Joe Budden from getting jumped by multiple people, and it was reasonable to do so, yeah he should help.

no, he needs to drop his EP with Raekwan on it as planned and ignore that whole incident because Joey shouldn't have been running his mouth.
