“Pump It Up” rapper and *sigh* Love & Hip Hop star Joe Budden has had a bizarre past couple of days, and luckily for us, it’s all unfolded on Twitter.
This all started last weekend, when Budden allegedly grabbed his ex-girlfriend and forced her into a car. As the two argued, Budden stole her cell phone and twisted her arm, before taking her to his New Jersey home, where the attack allegedly continued. She was eventually able to escape and call police.
Via the Daily News –
The rapper reportedly flew into a rage after seeing Instagram pictures of his ex-girlfriend clubbing with other men. The woman had broken up with Budden because he was “cheating and hooking up with strippers,” a friend told mediatakeout.com.
After the NYPD had trouble locating Budden, they released a tweet announcing that he was a wanted man –
WANTED: Joe Budden, 6ft., 200lbs., for robbery/taking cellphone of F/25 at 4:30am 8/18. Call #800577TIPS. pic.twitter.com/EN94tYCUa2

That’s some real crack police work there, NYPD. Instead of turning himself in (even though he claims he eventually did), he decided to take to Twitter to both defend himself AND antagonize the NYPD during the “manhunt.”
Let’s take a chronological look at how his week unfolded.
He announced that he would be representing himself
So.. I’m also with presenting an opening argument in the court of public opinion.. I always wanted to be a lawyer !

He advised his followers to stay away from strippers and bartenders
The lesson to be learned here is.. Leave the strippers & bartenders in the strip club… sounds so simple !

He started to get philosophical
I know at least 2 women who love me so much that they avoid me at all costs…. I’ll never get it, but I respect it.

And now we’re back to real time! Hope Budden gets this all sorted out. Would hate for him to miss the next season of Love & Hip Hop.
