Joe Budden, NYPD Lawsuit: Tweets "No Real Man Ever Hits A Woman" And "Never Trust A Woman That Never Heard Purple Rain"
Rapper and "Love and Hip Hop: New York" reality star, Joe Budden is slamming the NYPD after they posted on twitter that they were looking for the "Pump It Up" rapper for assaulting his ex-girlfriend.
August 23rd, the rapper tweeted, "I'm gonna sue the living shit out u gentlemen. @NYPDnews." He added, "I'll be in a strip club in Astoria tonight. Let the "Man hunt" know. @NYPDnews."
According to TMZ, the "Pump It Up" rapper alleged became enraged after he saw photos of his former girlfriend with other men. A source close to the victim says Joe dragged her from a restaurant she was dining at to her car where he allegedly choked and slammed her head against the dash and reportedly continued to beat her in his New Jersey home.
Joe denied the incident on his official twitter account saying, "Messy break ups are so.. Well....... Messy."
In another twitter rant Monday, the rapper joked that there were signs that he shouldn't have taken his relationship with his ex-girlfriend seriously, "I should've known that girl was trouble when she never heard of Prince.... Never trust a woman that never heard Purple Rain." He added, "I might say that in court...... "Your Honor, she never heard Purple Rain, like really b ?!?!?!" Lol."
The 33-year-old repeatedly denied ever hitting a woman despite the rumors and alleged "manhunt," "No real man ever hits a woman. That's just plain logic," he said.
