Taxstone Fires Back At N.O.R.E. From Prison

Incarcerated podcaster Taxstone has clapped back at N.O.R.E. who mocked him for his podcast rollout on Youtube.

N.O.R.E. appeared on The Joe Budden Podcast in February, where he made the following remarks:

“It’s probably the best audio deal in rap podcast history. I’m keeping it 100. And we still own our IPO. I said, ‘Before me, they gave the YouTubes for free. Them IPOs, they didn’t own, only me and EFN.”

He continued: “A’lot of y’all dudes was out here giving y’all YouTubes away for free. Y’all was signed to… what’s that sh-t? Sound? What was the sh-t that Tax and all them n-ggas was signed to? What’s that label? A dude named Matt ran it. Combat, Tax, all of them was on this label giving they YouTubes away for free. I’m the first dude that had a three-deal for the same crack.”

Taxstone, who is currently awaiting sentencing after being found guilty of manslaughter in the first degree, talked with Complex where he addressed the comments.

“Nore’s Drink Champs is a legendary podcast. I still like it. I have my little issues with Nore, but I don’t hold on to sh-t too long like other people do. But I still enjoy his podcast because I like Hip Hop and I like rap legends. But I don’t like when a person tries to act like they’re intelligent and they know what they’re doing all the time and somebody that tries to act like they’re supportive of the culture.”

He added, “I didn’t really address it because that shit is not even true. Like if you really do your due diligence to look at the Tax Season podcast, I didn’t post videos on YouTube. And that was intentional because I wasn’t getting paid from it. So if you really see my podcast, it’s only clips of them. It’s only one full interview of Tax Season ever on video. And that’s the Meek Mill interview I did in Atlanta. So that’s false because I didn’t even post videos on YouTube of my podcast. I actually have all of my videos on my hard drive because I knew that that was a different form of revenue that I could get.”
