#TheStruggleIsReal: Joe Budden Says He's Done With His 'Everyday Struggle' Series
Joe Budden should be overjoyed as he and his girlfriend, Cyn Sanatana, welcomed their first child together — a baby boy.
The pair has always been very public about their relationship, so it should come as no surprise that Budden took to Twitter to vent about his web series, Everyday Struggle on Tuesday.
On Monday, rumors started speculating that there were some issues with Budden when DJ Whoo Kid shared a tweet.
.@JoeBudden will be back. He's on baby duties this week. I'm not taking his spot on @EverydayStrugg lol. Holy shit. I'm just passing thru this week. Sheesh. Calm the hell down. Lol. And congrats to Joe on his newborn son

Despite DJ Whoo Kid's tweet, it doesn't seem unbelievable that Budden would take some time off from his series and get into full daddy mode for his newly born son. However, Budden made it clear that Complex Media was using his child to mask the real reason why he hasn't been appearing on the show. In August, Budden started airing out his complaints that Complex won't cut him his check. Well, it looks like this time they really didn't. Fans of the series immediately started to think that Budden was fired from the show. However, in a series of tweets, the rapper ended those speculations.
They didn’t give me a proper goodbye either. INJUSTICE!!!!!! https://t.co/ygMuYvuTL5 — Joe Budden (@JoeBudden) December 19, 2017
According to Budden, his contract with Complex Media is up and he was waiting for the rest of us to find out what was happening. Budden even responded to the series' official account shedding some light on the situation with a tweet.
No episode with me is what they meant Chopz. Lol https://t.co/05AKTA0wt7 — Joe Budden (@JoeBudden) December 18, 2017
Budden's girlfriend, Cyn Santana, even jumped in on the madness and confirmed that Budden won't be appearing in the series anymore.
Joey ain’t on it... so basically yeah cause RT @HighYellowHello: so is Everyday Struggle over? — Cyn Santana (@Cyn_Santana) December 19, 2017
Fans of the series are not happy about the decision and have stated that the show is definitely not going to be the same without him. Will it be a snooze fest without Budden? Or will Budden’s co-host DJ Akademiks and Nadeska Alexis be able to carry the show?
