Joe Budden's hit song "Pump It Up" was released in 2003, but it just went gold, and he received a gold plaque from LL Cool J this week.

A lot of people trolled Joe over the song selling 500,000 or more units in 21 years, and one of them was Yung Miami, formerly of the City Girls. "I was 9 im 30 now," she tweeted while including a bunch of laugh emojis.

It seemed that Joe was planning to blast Miami, but he decided to hold off, writing "It would be too easy. Maybe tmw lol."

From there, Miami said she trolled Joe because he predicted that her podcast Caresha Please would eventually be canceled. It's still going strong, by the way.
"Another one bites the dust remember???β she asked him. "You was just celebrating when you THOUGHT I took an L. I can laugh YOU was just laughing at me so LETS LAUGH!"

Joe's "too easy" response could have to do with some of the drama that Miami has faced this year. For one, her group with JT, the City Girls, broke up after they had an argument on social media. Two, her now-ex boyfriend Diddy was accused of sexual assault, sex trafficking, and other serious crimes. Miami was even called one of his sex workers, which she's since denied.
Earlier this month, Miami broke her silence on Diddy's legal problems during an episode of Caresha Please and confirmed that she ended her relationship with him.
"When all of these things came out, I just needed to take a break and focus on whatβs important and it was just me and my career and my family," she explained. "[I'll] let him navigate and figure it out on his own because I canβt get caught up in that."

As for Joe, we'll have to see if he decides to go scorched earth on Miami tomorrow, as he said.
