In a battle, Budden would probably win.
But Method Man is a better rapper overall, and he'd kick Budden's ass into his face, too.
It wasn't about ''best battle mc's of all time'', so Budden has no reason to be upset. His solo was ass to everyone except to dude that played Napolean Dynamite's brother in the movie, and "basment music", who only listens to that shit in his basement. With headphones on. In the dark. On Tuesdays.
