Stream Joe Budden’s New ‘Rage & the Machine’ Album

Joe Budden delivers his new album Rage & the Machine. AraabMUZIK handles production on the 11-track project, which contains features from Joell Ortiz, Tory Lanez, Fabolous and more.

Rage & the Machine is Budden's seventh studio album. The New Jersey MC put out All Love Lost in 2015, a 13-track body of work that expanded his "mood music" genre. You can listen to his new project Rage & the Machine below via Apple Music. You can also purchase the album for $9.99 via iTunes.

"Flex" with Tory Lanez and Fab is a definite standout on the album. In case you missed it, the song dropped back in late June. Budden spits, “Look, the text read, ‘At my place you wanna meet?’/Her mouth saying hello, her legs were saying peace/Her alarm in the morning when she wake up to the D/And now half of the bed wet as she lay naked on the sheets/Biting down on the pillows, swear she take it like a G/When we finish it’s to the mission, gotta make it through the streets/We go our separate ways, take a break and let it breathe.”

Budden was in the news over the summer for his beefs with Drake and Meek Mill. Then, in mid-August, he walked out of an interview with Ebro in the Morning. “Next time I come here for an interview send my manager the talk points,” said Budden around 37 minutes into the talk, clearly a little agitated. “I didn’t know that this would be an utter complete waste of time. We talked about Drake for 5-10 minutes then we talked about the album for 30 seconds.”
