KXNG Crooked Blames Joe Budden For Slaughterhouse Break Up

Published Wed, March 9, 2022 at 10:20 AM EST

 

Last week (3/4) Slaughterhouse members Joe Budden, Royce Da 5’9 and later Joell Ortiz engaged in a heated Instagram Live conversation that ended with Joe inviting Joell to his private parts. The conversation stemmed from Joell and KXNG Crooked's release scheduled for 3/11 titled The Rise And Fall Of Slaughterhouse. KXNG Crooked, who was absent from the live shared his perspective with the Bacon Egg N Cheese Podcast.

“The Rise And Fall Of Slaughterhouse is like an audio documentary in my eyes about me and Joell Ortiz and our perspective about the things that happened while we were the group Slaughterhouse” says Crooked of the upcoming project. “The last time that we dropped an album was 2012 and in those ten years I took flights to New York to sit with Rosenburg, took flights to Detroit to sit with Royce and later with Eminem and none of the efforts amounted to anything. I finally accepted that it was over, and I needed to close this chapter in my life.”

 

Crooked states further that he secured a deal where Universal, who had issues with Joe Budden wasn’t involved, and he came to the table with that deal. “Everyone called me and said that Joe didn’t wanna do the deal and I told them to tell Joe to call me. They wanted to go back and forth about the paperwork and I told them to tell me what they wanted so that we could put it in the paperwork and everything would be as close to what they wanted as possible. Joe never called me” KXNG Crooked says.

 

Royce stated In the Live with Royce, Joe and Joell that he wouldn’t do a Slaughterhouse project without Joe Budden and Crooked confirmed that in the podcast. “My final attempt was to ask Royce if he wanted just us three (minus Joe Budden) to do the project and he didn’t want to do it without all four of us. Joe Budden has publicly retired [from rap] and he has stayed true to that. We are too old. Either you wanna do it or you don’t.”
