Crispy fresh video. I'm so happy for Jim Jones...He has come a long way. He is definitely the hottest Dipset member right now.

Fat Joe Speaks on Michael Jackson Documentary; Leaving Neverland

A documentary by HBO on Michael Jackson titled Leaving Neverland was aired a few days ago (6th and 7th of March, 2019), and it has gotten everyone talking. The two men that are center of the whole documentary had some damaging things to say about MJ and how he allegedly molested them as kids. TMZ caught up with Fat Joe on the streets as he was making his way to a white Rolls Royce Cullinan and asked him what he felt about the documentary.

Pics: Sevyn Streeter, Fat Joe, and Remy Ma at a Function

Checkout this picture of Sevyn Streeter, Fat Joe, and Remy Ma at a function recently. Actually, the picture was taken last week after their performance on the Wendy Williams show. They have a song together on Fat Joe and Remy Ma's 'Plata O Plomo' album titled, Go Crazy.

Fat Joe was broke for a while after his tax evasion issues a couple of years ago, where he had to pay almost $2 million to the government, and also had to spend 4 months behind bars. But he didn't lay down and complain, he went back to work. After a couple of failures, he hit a home-run with the All The Way Up song (with Remy Ma), which has sold $2 million copies till date. He is back on his feet again. This is a picture of him in Miami with his new Rolls Royce Wraith. The car cost $300,000.




Pic: Papoose, Remy Ma, Fat Joe, and His Wife at a Basketball Game

Checkout this picture of Papoose and his wife, Remy Ma, with Fat Joe and his wife, Lola Milan at a basketball game from a few weeks ago. Remy Ma and Fat Joe are a rap duo. They go to a lot of places together, and thus sometimes double-date.






Fat Joe Speaks About Big Pun's Death

In case you don't know, Big Pun is still one of the biggest selling Latino rappers in Hip Hop history. His first album, Capital Punishment went platinum back when it was released in 1998, and it made him the first Latino rapper to go platinum. Fat Joe had signed him to Terror Squad Records in 1995 after hearing him rap outside a store. They remained friends/business associates till Pun passed away from a heart attack in 2000.

In his recent interview (a couple of days ago) on Hot 97 radio, Fat Joe was asked by Funk Master Flex if he knew Big Pun was not in a good place health-wise before his passing, and he said...



"I didn't know nothing. I was eating just as much as Big Pun. And we was hanging out the same way. We knew he was a big guy since I met, did I think he would die? No way. He was a young kid. He was in his twenties."













Tiwa Savage Working on a New Song with Remy Ma

Tiwa Savage is arguably the biggest female musician out of Nigeria right now. She has conquered Nigeria and Africa, and feels she needs to take on the American market. She signed a management deal with Jay Z's Roc Nation Management last year, and I am guessing this collaboration was part of the fruits of that move.





First Week Sales Prediction of Fat Joe and Remy Ma's "Plata O Plomo" Album

The duo of Fat Joe and Remy Ma have finally dropped their collaborative album, Plata O Plomo, and I want to attempt to predict what it would sell in its first week in stores. The album was meant to have dropped in the second quarter of last year (2016), but Fat Joe said (in a recent interview) he held it back because people on his team said he should allow singles off the album bring in enough money before releasing the full album. Th the first single off the album, All The Way Up has already sold over 1 million copies since it was released in March of 2016.

It is good to see the old Terror Squad back together again. Remy had her falling out with Fat Joe about 7 years ago and then went to jail afterwards. And DJ Khaled got too big for Terror Squad, but it is good to see they are back together again, and working on music. This is a picture of Fat Joe, Remy Ma, and DJ Khaled Fat Joe put on his Instagram yesterday.





Pic: 50 Cent at Fat Joe's Sneaker Store (UP NYC)

10 years ago, I would have never seen this happening. This is a picture of 50 Cent at Fat Joe's new sneaker store, UP NYC from the opening last week. Good to see them dudes leave the past in the past and support each other.






Fat Joe Speaks on What Caused His Isssues with Nas

I'm sure they are cool now, but there was a time Fat Joe was not speaking to Nas for what he felt Nas did wrong. Before then, they were cool buddies. Below is what Fat Joe had to say about the problem he had with Nas in 2005 when Nas squashed his beef with Jay Z.







How Fat Joe Conquered His Fear of Flying

For years, rapper, Fat Joe had a fear of flying. It is funny, right? But, until about 5 years ago, Fat Joe never used air transportation, because he always felt plains were too big to glide through the air, and he was always scared if he got on one, it would crash. 50 Cent even taunted him with that fact many times during their feuding years. But, something happened some years back that made him conquer that fear. His brother from another mother, Khaled, was in another country and he had gotten into trouble with the local gang over there because of fat Joe. Khaled was calling Fat Joe non-stop to come save him, and Joey Crack felt like a sucker for not being able to get on a plane and go save his brother, asap. So...Okay, hear the story from the horses mouth.

Eminem Gave Fat Joe His Demo Half a Dozen Times



Eminem might be one of the biggest rapper in the world right now, but there was one time he was a struggling rapper living in his mom's trailer. There have been stories that he got overlooked by the likes of Puff Daddy, Irv Gotti, and a host of other record label owners of the 90s. But the latest news in this line is the one of Eminem approaching Fat Joe with his demo a total of 6 times. And the funny thing is that Fat Joe says he can't even remember.




During him and Remy Ma's interview with Power 105.1's The Breakfast Club two days ago, Fat Joe narrated the story. Charlamagne said he heard he turned down Eminem 6 times, and Fat Joe said...

They went from friends, to foes, to friends again. Fat Joe signed Remy Ma when she was still in her teens back in the late 90s. They had a little falling out in the mid 2000s before Rem went off to jail, but everything is cool between them now, and they are even working on a new album titled, 'Platas o Plomo.' The first single off thejoint album is out now, and is titled All The Way Up.



Below is a picture of Remy Ma and Fat Joe hanging out at night in New York a few days ago.




Fat Joe Lists Hip Hop Artists He Has Helped

I remember reading some time ago where Fat Joe spoke about when duo producers Cool & Dre just started making beats, and when he found out how much they charged, he said it was too small, and gave them about 5 times the amount, and made sure he shouted out their name on all the songs they made for him. And in no time, they were a house hold name. He might not be in the forefront of Hip Hop right now, but the number of hip hop artists Fat Joe has helped come up is very surprising. 



Fat Joe Could Have Signed Eminem To Terror Squad

We all make mistakes in life. We all have regrets. One of Fat Joe's biggest regrets is not signing Eminem back in the day, after Slim Shady had approached him multiple times with demo tapes. Hmm! I am sure he would have never thought Eminem would be as big as he turned out. Even Dr. Dre took a big risk, But I have to say that Eminem ended up in the best place. 


Pic: Timbaland, DJ Khaled, Pistol Pete, Scot Storch...)

This pic was taken at Pistol Pete's (Fat Joe's associate) birthday party last weekend. In the first roll is Timbaland, DJ Khaled, Pistol Pete, and Scot Storch. And the second roll is Dre, Cool (Producers- Cool and Dre), and Fat Joe.  For those that don't know who Pistol Pete is, he is the founder of Kill All Ratsmovement, and also a Terror Squad member. He is the dude that had G Unit members shook back in the 50 Cent and Fat Joe beef days. Tony Yayo literally ran and locked himself in a store's restroom when he saw Pistol walk in the door.



Pic: Fat Joe, Rich Player, Pecas

Fat Joe shared this pic on his Instagram a couple of days ago. That's Joe coming out of a Yacht, with Rich Player, and Pecas (Def Jam Exec). The pic was accompanied with this caption- "Doing it big with my brothas @therealpecas @therealrichplayer #yachtlife"



Pic: Fat Joe in Studio With Daughter

I guess Fat Joe is working on some new music, cos he has been sharing a lot of pictures of himself in the studio online lately. This one is of Fat Joe and his daughter in the studio. He put it up on Instagram about a week ago, with the caption- "Introducing the head of A&R of Terror Squad! Ms. Azzy Milan."


He was obviously joking about that title.




Rare Hip Hop Photo: Fatjoe, Eve, Busta Rhymes, Bow Wow, Methodman, and Redman

Check out this rare Hip Hop photo of Fat Joe, Eve, Busta Rhymes, Bow Wow, Methodman, and Redman. This was probably taken around the mid 2000s...around 2003/2004. You can see Busta hadn't started gaining all that weight he has now, and Bow Wow was in his late teens. By the way, Bow Wow is the one dressed like LL Cool J and making the peace sign.
