It’s official; Joe Budden is leaving “Everyday Struggle.”
Joe Budden confirmed his exit from Complex’s daily show “Everyday Struggle” on Tuesday, citing internal issues on the production’s end and inability to create.
Recently, the rapper’s been absent from the show and has been replaced by guests co-hosts like DJ Whoo Kid, who erroneously attributed Budden’s departure to paternity leave. Though he and Love & Hip Hop star Cyn Santana recently welcomed their first child, Budden shut down that claim.

Since its premiere in April, “Everyday Struggle” has garnered a steady following of fans as Budden and co-hosts Nadeska Alexis and DJ Akademiks would debate hot topics in hip-hop.
No word on who will replace him, but Budden’s presence may have been the show’s saving grace.
