But now, the infamous talking head and former Slaughterhouse MC is facing another controversy.<\/p>\n<p>On Monday morning (May 17), DJ and podcast host Olivia Dope posted a 26-minute Instagram video accusing Budden of sexual harassment, which she says h<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ened during Episode 16 of the <em>See, The Thing Is<\/em> podcast on The Joe Budden Network. According to Olivia, Budden made numerous sexual advancements toward Olivia while on the show.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn January 18, 2021, Joe Budden sat in on a recording of the female-led podcast I was a part of and continuously made sexual, suggestive remarks to me that made me extremely uncomfortable as well as fearful of dampening the mood if I didn\u2019t laugh along while he made those sexual remarks to me,\u201d she sid. \u201cThose moments not only live on the internet forever, it also forced me into the decision of quitting the podcast.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was traumatizing, embarrassing and I\u2019ve decided that I have to actually speak up because not only was it important for me to walk away from it, it also is important for me to speak up to let others know this probably wouldn\u2019t be the best situation for you to enter into, working with this person.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She added in the caption, \u201cWhy I quit the Joe Budden Network. Episode 16 of \u2018See The Thing Is\u2026\u2019 was the final straw of 3 months on the JBN. It took a lot to get to this point to speak up, but the healing begins now.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" style=\"background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/tv\/CO-KFmjHOew\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"13\">\n<div style=\"padding: 16px;\">\n\u00a0<\/p>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: row; align-items: center;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 40px; margin-right: 14px; width: 40px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 100px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 60px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 19% 0;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; height: 50px; margin: 0 auto 12px; width: 50px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"padding-top: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"color: #3897f0; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 550; line-height: 18px;\">View this post on Instagram<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 12.5% 0;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: row; margin-bottom: 14px; align-items: center;\">\n<div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(0px) translateY(7px);\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; height: 12.5px; transform: rotate(-45deg) translateX(3px) translateY(1px); width: 12.5px; flex-grow: 0; margin-right: 14px; margin-left: 2px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(9px) translateY(-18px);\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-left: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 20px; width: 20px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 2px solid transparent; border-left: 6px solid #f4f4f4; border-bottom: 2px solid transparent; transform: translateX(16px) translateY(-4px) rotate(30deg);\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-left: auto;\">\n<div style=\"width: 0px; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-right: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(16px);\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; flex-grow: 0; height: 12px; width: 16px; transform: translateY(-4px);\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-left: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(-4px) translateX(8px);\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center; margin-bottom: 24px;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 224px;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 144px;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/tv\/CO-KFmjHOew\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\">A post shared by @oliviadope<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Olivia Dope went on to note every minute mark that needed an edit because Joe Budden had said something inappropriate.<\/p>\n<p>Pointing to minute 14:34, she said, \u201cThere\u2019s an editing in the recording because Joe says him and I should speak more because he \u2018been wanted to fuck me since we\u2019ve met.\u2019 Everyone in the studio laugh uncomfortably while one of my co-hosts confirmed that to be true.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am mortified by this revelation not only because it was done in front of the entire production staff but it was done while we were recording audio as well as visual. That scene was cut out and it jumps to Joe repeating we should speak more because we have the least dialogue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She also highlighted minute 19:26, noting, \u201cAnother edit happens because Joe makes another suggestion to having sex with me. What is shown right after that is me closing my eyes, saying no and then he says \u2018Never mind.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=0liVkioqT0A\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=0liVkioqT0A<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere in the Instagram video, Olivia talked about minutes 31:42-35 in which Joe Budden made her feel like she was in a \u201chostile work environment\u201d by letting her co-hosts know she\u2019s \u201ccarrying the group because they don\u2019t dress sexy enough.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She added, \u201cNot only am I embarrassed for myself in being objectified but also you\u2019re making other women that I have to work with on a regular basis uncomfortable by telling them they don\u2019t dress sexy enough. I pretty much react by looking away and looking down in discomfort.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe has actually said this in the past and it created a passive aggressive and competitive environment within myself and my former co-hosts, where she admittedly attempted to shut down every idea I brought to the table because it wasn\u2019t well-received by Joe and Ian, his business partner.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Shortly after that particular segment,\u00a0Olivia allegedly goes into the green room where Budden is sitting and he asks her if she\u2019s OK. She said she wanted to avoid further conversation or uncomfortableness, but he requests an on-air hug to \u201clighten the mood.\u201d She complies despite her better judgement.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">One of the most difficult things I\u2019ve ever had to express in my life.

And if somebody does cross that line, you have to speak up.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In August 2019, Joe Budden denied having a history of tearing down women in an interview with <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2019\/music\/news\/joe-budden-nicki-minaj-fight-queen-radio-podcast-1203302222\/\"><em>Variety,<\/em><\/a> saying, \u201cThat\u2019s such a false narrative, I don\u2019t understand where comes from and it shouldn\u2019t be created. I was raised by a single mom. I was raised to believe \u2014 and I still believe \u2014 that women are the greatest creatures on this fucking earth. The greatest. I don\u2019t understand where that comes from.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Clearly, Olivia Dope begs to differ.
