Joe Budden Catches Heat For Pro-Abortion Lyrics! printer friendly version Send this story to a friend!
Posted: 7/1/2004 1:22:22 PM by foxxylady

Joe Budden is in trouble with pro-lifers because of his lyrics in Usher's "Confessions" remix which discuss committing violence against a woman and her unborn child.

Black Americans for Life is condemning the Jersey City rapper for the lyrics in the "Confessions" remix which suggest beating a woman in the stomach to cause her to abort an unwanted child.

Pray that she abort that; if she's talkin' 'bout keepin' it / one hit to the stomach; she's leakin' it..."

"These lyrics are demeaning and outright violent toward both women and unborn children," remarks Day Gardner of Black Americans for Life. "It is appalling to suggest that a man attack a woman to cause the death of her unborn child. As women and as mothers, we simply cannot allow ourselves or our unborn children to be treated as objects of such abuse."

The group is urging the public to call Usher's label, LaFace/Zomba and their local radio stations to have the song removed from the air.

I think that he was just rapping just like everybody else does and if people are going to get mad over that then you should get mad at the constution for making it a law of free speech

not right
for one, if he didnt mean any of what he was saying why say it, i know they just rap lyrics, but most people who listen to his shit take it seriously, and if he got a kid, why would he wanna say that tight of shit neway

aww dayum
the funny thing is that they goin after him for sayin shit that happen in the hood every day. he's not advocating it, he simply holding up a mirror and showing u the fucked up shyt that goes down. hell, if that's the case, why aren't they holding Ursher responsible for "yeah" where he's freakin his girl's homegirl? or Kanye for cussin in a song about Jesus? the point I'm making is that it's art and whatever u need to say to get your point across, do it. Joey Black did what he intended to do: bring attention to this issue (and himself.....Lord knows his career is on a slippery slope, early!) Lighten tha fuck up!
