Joe Budden Receives Barrage Of Backlash For Take On Tyla & Her Behavior At The VMAs

One of the most controversial talking heads in all of hip-hop is back at it again. Over the weekend, Joe Budden and the crew got to discussing the MTV VMAs that went down last Wednesday. The main focus during that portion of the podcast had to do with Tyla. Overall, there are some that feel she was acting snobby and standoffish throughout the entire program. For example, some were critiquing her for the way she was asking Lil Nas X and Halle Bailey to help her hold her award onstage.

This led to Armon Wiggins, a pretty big multi-media personality, to call out Tyla on social media. "Hey, I don’t think I like TYLA’s personality. I think someone needs to check her 'cause she doesn’t understand American culture AT ALL. She almost gives off entitled or uppity African vibes. I don’t know how to explain it, but it’s very off-putting, and it’s almost like she expects people to just fall at her feet".

Joe Budden Felt Tyla Curved USHER In A Stuck-Up Manner

This quote sparked debate on Joe Budden's show as he was in complete agreement, according to IOL. Apparently, he's been feeling this way about the "Water" hitmaker, citing an incident at one of USHER's past shows being the catalyst. In the resurfaced clip above, USHER appears to try and get Tyla to dance on him, but she subtly dodges that advance of assumed showmanship. Joe felt she should have done it out of respect because the R&B legend was trying to show her love by doing this all while dancing to "Water". However, his panel of co-hosts was in total disagreement, mentioning that she's in a relationship and didn't want to disrespect her man. That really set him off, but also the rest of the internet as they were in complete disagreement. You can see those reactions above and below.

Janet Devlin says that “blending my Irish roots with the Nashville spirit has opened up this whole new world.”

The 30-year-old Irish singer-songwriter, who first rose to fame after placing fifth on The X Factor in 2011, has released Not My First Emotional Rodeo, a deluxe edition of her country debut Emotional Rodeo. The expanded album includes eight brand new tracks, one of which is a stripped-back version of Kenny Rogers’ timeless classic The Gambler.

Devlin is embracing her country music dream, having performed at C2C (Country to Country) Festival in Belfast, London, and Berlin this year, while also celebrating chart success with her record. She admits the experience has been “a bit surreal.”

Speaking to BANG Showbiz, she explained: “It’s honestly a bit surreal but also the realisation of a long term goal of mine. I grew up in very rural Ireland, singing along to country songs at home, and at the back of my mind I always knew that one day I’d be releasing in this genre. But I also somehow manifested me standing on a C2C stage and having my songs played on the radio! To be part of this new wave bringing country into the mainstream is such an honour, but it also feels like home to me. Country has always been about storytelling, and that’s what I’ve been doing since the beginning – raw honesty, writing from the heart and of course some silly goose humour too!”

The country genre has seen a major revival in the mainstream recently, with artists such as Beyoncé, Post Malone, and Lana Del Rey helping to lead the charge.

Devlin added: “What’s exciting is seeing how wide the genre is stretching at the moment – country isn’t one thing and it can live anywhere. I hope it opens up for steadfast artists who’ve been grinding it out in the genre for a while – they deserve to have bigger audiences and a wee bit more income as a result! For me, blending my Irish roots with the Nashville spirit has opened up this whole new world.”

She went on to say: “More than anything, I’m just grateful. To see people connecting with songs that started in my little notebook in the middle of nowhere. If I can help make country feel a little more universal, a little more unexpected, then I’m exactly where I’m meant to be!”

Released in November 2024, Emotional Rodeo reached No.1 on the iTunes Country Chart and climbed to No.4 on the UK Official Country Artists Albums Chart.

Not My First Emotional Rodeo is now available to stream on all major platforms.
