The internets nearly shut down this morning as word began to travel around that a virtual “manhunt” was underway for “Love & Hip Hop NY” rapper Joe Budden. The frenzy began after the Twitter account belonging to the NYPD News tweeted out the following tweet below.

As previously reported, Joey found himself in hot water this week when his former girlfriend released pics to the media claiming Joe beat her up.
The rapper has been accused of losing his mind upon seeing pics of his ex clubbing with other men on Instagram.
Her friend reportedly told mediatakeout.com that Joe’s ex allegedly broke up with Budden because he was
“cheating and hooking up with strippers.”
This statement is sort or ridiculous inside of itself. It’s Joe Budden! The rapper is well-known for his gaggle of girls! Who besides his lady-love Tahiry gets with him thinking there isn’t going to be other girls running around? Have they not seen pics from his pool parties? Bottom line the ladies love themselves some Joe and they seem to do whatever necessary to be in his presence. This is common knowledge. But we digress.
However, the New York Daily News is reporting that cop sources say according to their paperwork, Budden did nothing more than twist the woman’s arm.
The “wanted” Slaughterhouse rapper is supposedly hiding in plain sight on social media as he fired off more than 15 tweets on Friday claiming New Jersey cops had been in contact with him. Check out a little of what Mr. Budden had to say below.
Times like these build character… I’m buying whatever God has in store.. Let’s get it.

So.. I’m also with presenting an opening argument in the court of public opinion.. I always wanted to be a lawyer !

Also, if I did half of what’s alleged, a pic of her face would be out, not her leg.. This is simple logic here.

Logic typically clears up a lot of shit by the way.

I did have a nice convo w @TMZ earlier about journalistic integrity, boy was that funny/stupid. Lol

We somehow doubt he is #1 on the NYPD’s most wanted list just yet but it looks like they might want to have a little chat with the rapper sometime soon.
We’ll standby as this story continues to develop.
