Title: Fat Joe Splits Atlantic, Preps New Album
Post by: Damien J. on July 27, 2006, 08:55:14 PM
Fat Joe has parted ways with Atlantic and set an Oct. 17 release for his seventh solo album, "Me Myself & I." The set will be issued independently via his own label, Terror Squad. It features collaborations with the Game and Lil Wayne and production from Scott Storch, the Runners and DJ Khaled, among others.

The first single is the Runners-produced "Clap & Revolve." Fat Joe describes the new offering as his most personal to date. "I just started writing on my own and made the album I truly wanted to make," the Bronx rapper tells Billboard.com, adding that he opened up about his life in a way he previously hasn't.

"Me Myself & I" will be the follow-up to Fat Joe's 2005 Terror Squad/Atlantic disc "All or Nothing," which bowed at No. 6 on The Billboard 200 and has sold 293,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

Fat Joe will kick off his first European tour Friday (July 28) in Portugal, with dates in Switzerland, France, Germany and Spain to follow. The tour wraps up Aug. 8 in Oslo.

He needs to make this album stand out.  He makes albums very quietly, he pushes units but theres never much of a buzz with his shit, this album needs to change that.

I just hope that this album won't have some poor pop songs, like All Or Nothing had. That album had a few good songs, but most of it was garbage. Fat Joe's at his best when doing songs like "My Life", "Safe 2 Say (The Incredible)", "Definition Of A Don", etc...

Seriously, when I read the title of this thread, I thought the maker made Fat Joe out to be like Moses, only then he split the Atlantic instead of the Red Sea. Perhaps I should lay off the crack 8)

This ain't surprising to me at all.  Fat Joe's past three albums (two solo + Terror Squad) have all flopped, so it figures he lost his label deal.  Dude just needs to accept that without Pun by his side, he just doesn't have much appeal to anyone.

What he needs to do now is get DITC back together, since almost everyone from that clique that's gone solo has flopped.  It may not be the same without L, but it could still be pretty dope.

Fat Joe is the worst rapper in history beacause he doesnt even write his own shit and jumps on whats "hot".  The man thinks that just having steeet cred is enough to have him sell.  Now hes repping PR and grills in reggaeton and southern songs but he claims NY.  (and he ragged on raggaeton but did it anyway because it sold)

His only good album was Don Cartegena IMO, which may i add was written by Big Pun.

I wouldnt waste my time with him, hes fake and doent rep anything or stand for anything withought changing his mind for money

i wouldnt be suprised if he does a techno song soon just cuz the white kids bump it alot.

I dunno man...with a title for the lead single being called "Clap and Resolve".  Is he talking about busting his gun to solve his problems, or is it gonna be some gay ass new dance like he did with Lean Back?  Either way I'm not expecting anything good.

That definitely does not by itself qualify him to be the worst rapper, not by a long shot.  That only means he does what every mainstream rapper does.

Never liked dude all that much, but he actually could sound dope at times - didn't anyone think "Shit Is Real" was pretty ill?  Not to mention that being affiliated with D.I.T.C. meant he almost always had quality production behind him.

I'm not on his dick simply because I think he's had a dope joint or two.

And you spoke down to the GOD.  You are not supposed to do that, especially if you are white.

Fat Joe can make a good album, period. Dont think you will be seeing people like Nelly on this album, lets hope so atleast..

Terror squad sucks, cus you cant have a squad depending on the late great one wich is dead, when you have kicked his partner-in-rhyme of the squad. Cuban Link > joe, if they hooked up again, i think it would be some hot shit. I doubt they ever will tho=/

All or Nothing was a decent album in today's biz.  I'm surprised it doesn't get that much recognition.
