On August 31, 1980, in the Upper Manhattan neighborhood of East Harlem, New York City, New York, Budden was born to parents Joseph Budden and Fay Southerland.

Budden’s father was “missing” from his life as a child, a topic he later broached in his music.

Children

Joe has two children: Trey Budden (born on May 11, 2001), who was with his ex-girlfriend Angie, and Lexington Budden (born on December 15, 2017), who was with his ex-fiancée Cyn Santana.

The Celebrity was engaged to Cyn Santana and had a well-known relationship with her. The couple has subsequently broken off the engagement. After nearly three years of dating and four months of engagement, Cyn Santana and Joe Budden decided to call it quits in the spring of 2019.

Lifestyle

Budden was sent to Laurinburg Institute in North Carolina as a troubled adolescent, where he started honing his rapping abilities. He began using narcotics upon returning to Jersey and became dependent on phencyclidine, sometimes known as “angel dust.” On July 3, 1997, Budden voluntarily entered a rehab facility in return for being permitted to go to his senior prom following an intense argument with his mother. Joe Budden received a $25,000 student loan to finish his undergraduate education. But he has paid back this student loan after becoming well-known for his rap tracks and earning a fortune.

By age 20, Budden had fathered a child with an older lady and failed to receive his diploma. Budden started to take music more seriously after he found out he was having a son. His initial mixtapes and demos were released in 2001 when he hooked up with producer Dub-B, also known as White Boy. DJ Clue, the presenter of Hot 97 and the head of the Desert Storm Records label received one of these mixtapes.

With the release of his top 40 hit “Pump It Up” in 2003, he first came to public attention as a rapper. He was also a member of the hip-hop band Slaughterhouse. Joe Budden, Joell Ortiz, Crooked I, and Royce da 5’9 made up the supergroup Slaughterhouse. As a unit, they put out two studio albums: “Welcome to Our House” (2012) under Shady and Interscope Records and “Slaughterhouse” (2009) as independent acts.

2002 Budden signed a significant deal with Def Jam Recordings and rapidly established himself as a mixtape mainstay. His promotional single “Focus,” which spanned seventeen weeks and peaked at No. 43 on the US Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, originally caught people’s attention.

 

Budden released his first album as a solo artist in 2003 under the name “Joe Budden.” He has also published a number of solo and group albums, including “No Love Lost,” “All Love Lost,” “Halfway House,” “Rage and The Machine,” “Escape Route,” “Padded Room,” “Slaughterhouse,” and numerous others. On their mixtapes, Budden collaborated with a number of other musicians, including Cutmaster C, D.J. Clue, and D.J. Kayslay. ‘Pump It Up,’ ‘In My Sleep,’ ‘Fire,’ ‘Start Inside of Me,’ and ‘She Don’t Put It Down’ are some of his best-known songs. In addition, he has made appearances in more than three episodes and documentaries of the TV program “Love and Hip-Hop: New York.”

Although he no longer performs as a hip-hop musician, he is still involved in the field as a broadcaster and frequently covers interesting topics on his “The Joe Budden Podcast.” In addition, he co-hosted the “Complex’s Everyday Struggle,” where, before leaving the show amid backlash in January 2018, he had previously spoken openly about his struggles with depression and mental health.
