Following the success of “Halfway House” and the much-anticipated “Padded Room,” Joe Budden and Amalgam Digital are excited to announce the release of “Escape Route”. The digital-only album will be made available exclusively on AmalgamDigital.com August 11th, 2009. “Escape Route” marks the third installment in Budden’s inspired saga sequence that has already brought fans such releases as “Halfway House” and “Padded Room,” and will culminate with the groundbreaking “The Great Escape.”
Escape Route aims to set a new precedent for Budden as he begins to map out his escape by enlisting guest appearances from Wale, Slaughterhouse, and Young Chris as well as production from 9th Wonder, Streetrunner, Chad West, and J. Cardim. When asked about his latest endeavor Budden had the following to say:
“Escape Route is a precursor to what may very well be the best Joe Budden album ever… The Great Escape. It’s filled with the lyricism and passion that Joe Budden fans have come to love me for….‘THE GREAT ESCAPE’ coming soon!”
Following “Escape Route” Joe Budden will return to the Amalgam Digital label roster to release the final and most compelling installment of the series entitled “The Great Escape” another groundbreaking album that will signify his ultimate salvation and departure from the traditional norms of mediocrity that continue to confine the creativity of many artists today. With the momentum garnering around his supergroup Slaughterhouse’s performances on tour at the Paid Dues and Rock the Bells hip hop festivals, Budden’s latest album is sure to reinforce his commitment to his craft while also justifying his sustained success throughout the past several years.

Dropping tomorrow at AmalgamDigital! The same day Slaughterhouse hits stores!!
it should of been the pic of him holding that ice or wutever to his eye
I want We Outta Here more than anything right now, I think.
Buddens always has these dark ass cd covers but all his songs are about what a huge pussy he is. I don’t get it.
fuck a hater
Budden is dope regardless.. Wu made all this into more than it actually was.
i hate these digital only releases. why can’t it come on a disc. they would make more money so it’s a bonus for them also. looking forward to this though should be dope.
where’s the Wale feature?
^^^^^^^^What he said. Its always message board hate. Budden is better than majority of MC’s out here. So for all the haters out there who listen to wack shit, go crank some more Soulja Shit or some Doo Doo Mane into your life bitch.
whats all the hate for?!! talking about him getting punched. 6(rae and bodyguards) against 2(joe and mickey). and rae wasnt even the one that punched him. since when is that tough? thats a punk move, and yall promote that!? yall some suckas too then.
It’s cheaper to release it digitally and eventually much more music will be released this way. If you don’t have to print up the cds and pay for manufacturing and distribution then you stand to profit more while putting less money into the release.
Yo, on some real isht though. Budden’s wasn’t doin the knowledge on what the gods was tryin to born you know? When Rae came through wit his jewels instead of keepin his thrid eye closed he should’ve let his culture cypher deliver this wisdom in order to save self.
Negattos were specifically told back in 1993 that the Wu was comin’ through and the outcome was critical. So now that Shallah came to bring the message directly, Buddenz wanna act like this is some brand new shit. It was HIM who decided not to protect his neck! It was HIM who decided not to take heed to the old scripures on wooden papar that began to take shape and form when the god came on and crashed his college dorm!
So in closing, don’t feel sorry for Joe Buddens. He’s had more than enough time to listen to the wise words spoken by a brother attempting to open the grave of these mentally dead slaves who’ve been lost on a cross for decades. And that goes for all you 85s out there. Ya’ll need to make sure to study the 1-0-40 knowledge culture degree about M-G-G and G-C-C, otherwise Rae will be coming to see you at the god hour too.
haha! i’ll have to look forward to this one dropping from mr. buDDDen!
Co-Sign Whut ever dis Wu Kat said…..They all say wu roles in flocks….Joey aint never gonna get payback 4 dis.
This should be dope. I can’t wait to hear the full version of We Outta Here with Slaughterhouse. The 9th joint should be something special. The features are dope, Budden has worked with both Wale and Chis before. The Great Escape is supposed to be dropping on Oct. 13th, but knowing Joey that date is going to change. Tomorrow is a great day for hip hop, both the Slaughterhouse LP and the Escape Route EP on the same day !!!
dont you know….
Joey needs an escape route from Raekwons Fist
Look at my name…..ahahahaha
Joey is a Gerbil with a black eye! ahahaha
OOOpa Loopa What do we do…..
…I got a punch in the eye waiting for you….
Oopa Loopa Woopoty Do
Even the president dont like Joey!
yo yall retarted. raekwon aint punch him. it was one of them big ass bodyguards. 95% of yall wouldnt have done nothing either so cut it out
i like how he says this isnt his greatest work. you know how artists always say their upcomin project is the greatest.
it’s crazy how much work these dudes are doing. he has given so much music. and still figures out a way to give more. and its all quality. the shit you dont like isnt necessarily because you dont like his lyrics, but because the production wasnt the best. and he talking about a new mood muzik? hmmmm….
Look at this guy. He should leave the game no one likes him anymore….
Which hit was better????????????????
1. Pump it up?
Or
2. Raekwons fist in Joeys Eye?
Word to raekwons punch…..this kat doesn’t learn. I bet something else happens to him for this album. I am sure he talks smack about someone on this album…he herbs himself
6 vs 2…
Yeah Joe is a pussy…
I’m sure most of you wouldn’t to shit in that situation..
SMH @ People acting tough behind a keyboard
Did they throw that cover together in 5 minutes? What’s up with the floating handcuffs? Is this Budden the Friendly Ghost?
One name prince aldolpho. That’s the dude
lmao @ kids doing the same trolls over and over. boring trolls are boring
Im not a fan of raekwon nor joe budden.
But only a fat bitch nigga comes in with his bodyguards to punch someone. Just cause his arms are too busy holding donuts.
The people that actually think raekwon is tough, you probably one of those pussies that does it too.
The Gods, yo? The fucking Gods? These people are fucking men. I wish I would put some kind of label on a man. No man is a God. They never have been and never will be. That shit just irked the fuck out of me. Sit down and listen to the wisdom the Gods were trying to give him? They’re men just like Budden. Just like you and just like me. Get that ol’ extra “they’re untouchable from opinions” shit on. Who gives a flying fuck about who they are. I’m a man and I am definitely not going to bite my tongue for anyone. If I feel like I’m better than anyone in this world I am not going to hold it back because you think they’re a “God.” Get that dumb shit on, man. For real.
I said I wasn’t even going to comment on dude getting punched. Real talk, you niggas act like it’s the end of the world. Sucks to say it, but people get punched everyday. I still think Wu-Tang is being sensitive and hiding behind a legend status right now. What happened to rap is rap and leave it there? Niggas don’t learn shit. There are always going to be people who feel like they outshine you. Deal with it, man. That shit was completely uncalled for. If you think it’s cool to storm in six niggas to two, then you need to grow up, really. If you even think it’s cool to squash words with fist, you need to grow up. Raekwon is too damned old to be interacting with bullshit like this. That shit did NOT have to be ended in violence.
Can’t take us black folks anywhere, I swear.
SMH ^ at people crying over this. Its the WWF! iTS ALL PHONEY
God this is starting to get annoying with these comments. I understand people have opinions on what happened the other day but it would be nice to come on here and not see 95% of the comments about how Joe Budden is a bitch or how Raekwon is a pussy.
I would just like to say that the snippets sounded awesome and I think this is going to be a great listen.
Also the cover looks terrible, its way too similiar to Padded Room and the quality is just bad.
Man I hope Joe Buddden makes as disappointing and overhyped of an album as he did last time so that Slaughterhouse has two disappointing and overlyhyped albums drop on the same day.

Oh and Joey got what was coming to him with all the shit he was talking, when you talk shit, shit happens to you
I wasn’t going to comment on this either but some things need to be addressed. Some people say that Raekwon “the god” was trying to drop jewels? If he wanted to talk to Joe, it would be as simple as walking up to him and talking to him. He even said in an interview that he doesn’t even want to speak to him. Ignorance is a disease. If there are six people in a room against you and you fight back, you are dumber than you look.
i like how the second you say something bad about an artist considered “dope” by a few people you’re a soulja boy fan. GTFOH
Seriously. how would you look dumb? You went out swinging. No one can say anything. This whole thing is either fake and they are trying to hype albums….Or Joe buddens is not the man he claims he is in his raps….plain and symple.
i agree wit’ Rich ; joey isz doper than the majority of mc’s out there .
Nobody knows buddens off the internet. Too bad some of his internet soldiers werent around. they coulda took that hit for him.
.. and i am sure they will vote for joe nonstop on that shit^
ya got damn losers.
I bet Joe Budden wished he had an escape route in that trailer.
Who gives a shit about the whole fight incident? I’m juss lookin’ forward to good music, regardless of what has happened in an artist’s personal life. If you don’t give a shit about Budden then don’t comment…Simple.
it is acftually quite funny that his album is named escape route after he got locked in a trailer with bullys….ahahahahaa
he needs a new album artist
Nobody knows buddens off the internet. Too bad some of his internet soldiers werent around. they coulda took that hit for him.
.. and i am sure they will vote for joe nonstop on that shit^
ya got damn losers.

your on the internet and half the people on this site are only known on the internet. the game isnt like it used to be. do you think drake would be anywhere without the internet. the internet is the place to be
wow…joe budden message board is getting owned right now

payback? who said he wanted payback lol wasn’t this supposed to be kept on wax actually wasn’t this shit squashed come on now. I mean it was funny but out of place. I like Rae but he lost for that. Guess you have to promote OBFCL2 somehow.
“Clothes on a Mannequin” prob.a concept song…list looks good
budden can rip tracks no doubt, but rae is a legend, and so is anyone affiliated with Wu, and everyone has always known you can’t just attack one of them, they are all boys. Mouthing off on the internet is a bitch move even though i agree that in order to be the best you have to think you are. But once you make an initial bitch move(the original joe budden tv rant) you have no right to ask for a fair one, cuz bitches get dealt with as such.
With that said Slaughterhouse is ill, and WU-Tang ain’t nothing to fuck with

Drake got off the internet.. Joe started off with a single on mtv.. Now he is here. Making v-logs, and dumb internet shit like that. He is going backwards. Next he will be text battling motherfuckers on his queer ass message board..
escapade route

It’s supposed to look like padded room. Although it is still pretty crap.
i laugh at folks talkin shit bout joey having v-logs, and message boards n what not…and that makes him less credible or “wack”
yet raekwon came in the room wit a camera to record whatever was gonna happen..to put it on his own internet v-log type setup, yet he is “GOD”….
contradictin yaselves left n right..lol…
Ha, the cover kind of sucks but I want to get this. I hope it releases on iTunes (I know it won’t though) because otherwise I’m not buying it.
this is gonna be dope. Budden’s solo work is amazing
Looks dope
I down for anything Slaughterhouse related right now.I wonder if the HipHop greats will ever do some tracks with these dudes!!!!Wishful thinking.lol
Cover does suck though
Does amalgam usually drop it at midnight? Did he release padded room at midnight. I’m tryin to get that escape route asap.
haha what a “5 minutes” -artwork, cover sucks

wheres killas gangsta grillz?

yeah cams gangsta grillz is coming tonite
LOL @ these lame wu-tang stans
raekwon is one of the weakest in the wu,
dare I say THE weakest.
not to mention the dude must weigh 300 pounds lol.
fat motha fucka talkin bout he’s the “CHEF”
lmao!
FUCK RAEKWON!
WE OUTTA HEERREE!
This nigga should have took his own advice and should’ve had an “Escape Route” to make a “Great Escape” from the altercation that resulted in the great “Fist of Fury” to his right eye if he would’ve used his 3rd Eye lol
Y’all all lames dissin either side because ain’t not one person posting comments weren’t a Wu fan!
Lastly we all know Joe Budden is good but had what was coming to him. So stop siding with the Wu or Joe Budden. The nigga got dealt with now move on before he starts reading these comments and falls into another trap he’ll set up on his own self again to result in a beat down!
i don’t see the new JOEY on i tunes..what the fuck?
i hate these digital only releases. why can’t it come on a disc. they would make more money so it’s a bonus for them also. looking forward to this though should be dope.
@ mee
I skipped half the comments because everyone seemed to jump back on the rae/joe incident so I dont know if someone responded to this in there.
This is the age of the mp3 players, CDs are slowly becoming a past time now. And soon will only be on shelves with software on them or blanks. We’ll see a death date on these like we did for VHS.
