Did Joe Budden Leave Complex’s ‘Everyday Struggle’?
by Staff Editor

Say it ain’t so?
This year, one of our favorite hip-hop-related series was born, Complex’s Everyday Struggle led by Joe Budden, DJ Akademiks and Nadeska Alexis. This morning (12/19) on Twitter, a firestorm started when rumors began swirling that Joe Budden’s contract has expired and Complex is yet to renew it – and may not be at all. It also appears that Joe is leaving on his own will and taking his talents elsewhere, which won’t be hard for the entertainer.
They didn’t give me a proper goodbye either. INJUSTICE!!!!!! https://t.co/ygMuYvuTL5

While DJ Akademiks and Nadeska are vital to the success of Everyday Struggle, the show’s leader is clearly Joe. He’s the most opinionated and has the most, “I don’t care what others think” mentality, which this type of show desperately needs.
We’ve had iconic show moments thanks to Budden including the infamous Migos moment and the many times he went off on Akademiks. It’s safe to say the show won’t be the same without Budden. Take it from the fans.

Watched @EverydayStrugg everyday, won't watch another episode until @JoeBudden returns. He saw this coming if you were paying attention to the underlying message when he constantly made his "team" or lack thereof comments. Different era, different morals.
