He gave his Twitter followers a heads up yesterday that he’d be turning himself in, dropping a few tongue-in-cheek lines before the big moment, and even starting his own #FreeBudden campaign.
Three years ago, video vixen Esther Baxter accused Budden of using physical violence on her.
“AND!??? NEVER denied being pregnant TWICE!! but that was months ago…you KNOW what happened to our daughter don’t you!!?? @JoeBudden,” Baxter tweeted May 3, 2011.
“Oh I have pics to…but then they would prove you’re a murder & a wife beater!! wouldn’t they!??? @JoeBudden lets ask the courts shall we!??”
“Documented proof speaks volumes!!! You can put out pics of me naked!! But I have pics of abuse and death!!! Try me!! @JoeBudden”
“Let’s see how much your fans love and ride with you then!!! @JoeBudden” (Esther Baxter’s Twitter)
A year prior, Joe’s ex-wifey Tahiry Jose said he hurt her during their long relationship together.
“I just want you guys to know this is very, very difficult to address, discuss, even talk about and sometimes think about it,” Tahiry said in a statement. “I’ve avoided to for months — the fact that he’s not telling the truth after rapping about it to me is just completely disgusting. I’ll just let you guys know that if he had never publicly discussed our break-up, I wouldn’t have neither. Let alone the fact he put his hands on me — it’s his choice to discuss it however he wants it, even if it’s to the world, he’s free to handle it the way he wants to handle it…The day I heard his ['Downfall'] song was the day I was having my tattoo party which is why I chose to address it the way I did…I left and will never go back because he put his hands on me…Nobody should ever allow or accept anybody to put their hands on them. So I wish it all would end…” (This Is 50)
Budden dished out more details of the headline-generating story and proclaimed his innocence.
“I don’t take this lightly, but I do find it funny seeing as how IM THE CALMEST N*GGA IN THE WORLD !! Smh,” Budden tweeted Friday (August 22) evening.
“Also, if I did half of what’s alleged, a pic of her face would be out, not her leg.. This is simple logic here.”
“Logic typically clears up a lot of sh*t by the way.”
“I’ll have my day in court… f*ck it.”
“I did have a nice convo w @TMZ earlier about journalistic integrity, boy was that funny/stupid. Lol”
“Cops searched my house today cuz shorty told them I had guns here.. He said “wanna tell me why u have a bullet proof vest?”.. Lmao/smh”
“The lesson to be learned here is.. Leave the strippers & bartenders in the strip club… sounds so simple !” (Joe Budden’s Twitter)

“Mr. Budden looks forward to an opportunity to responsibly deal with and address the allegations against him so he may establish the actual facts of the night in question. Mr. Budden has fully cooperated with the investigation. Mr. Budden asks for patience as the evidence and facts unfold to demonstrate the truth of his involvement and the real events that transpired on the night in question.
Interesting enough, somebody already has it on video after the pair were spotted with cameras in Times Square, and the rapper broadcast a message for her over a jumbotron screen on the side of one of the intersection’s massive buildings. I see Joe trying to get fancy on us!
Anywho, the message shows Budden holding a dry-erase board with words that include “Love is: Compromise, Forgiveness, Family, Sex, Commitment, Tahiry.”
Then someone else caught the pair standing in the middle of Times Square, him in a suit, her dressed in her Thursday night best (skin-tight everything of course), as he spoke to her with the camera right behind them.
It was obviously a special moment, as a crowd of people (white folks actually) were pictured gathering around the couple as they spoke to one another. But who knows if she said yes? We don’t see Budden down on one knee, and we don’t see any excited. But leave it up to Mona Scott-Young to make you wait and watch the show to figure out if he’s really going to do right by a woman he’s basically played the hell out of on more than one occasion on TV.
