That track he did with Ja Rule and Ashanti and the one with R. Kelly was a gift and a curse for him. A gift in the sense it got him the success he was looking and working towards but a curse because he started to make songs like this formula, which sounded forced and watered down for radio. I want some John Blaze/Incredible type shit from him too. Or a track like this.

Post by: HEC on November 10, 2007, 04:43:50 PM: damn I remember Fat Joe Da Gangsta was dope as fuck, around '93 he built up a good buzz for his album, banners up all over in Queens where I live

Post by: Mackin on November 10, 2007, 04:50:13 PM: Fat Joe.."Please Don't Rap No Moe"

Dude was known to drop heated verses, Raw Lyrics and All!!!
But he has since changed his formula...I think the new direction has gained Him a bigger fan Base!So that kinda keeps Him in The Music..rather than being Known as a "has Been".....

Terror Squad was Just A Dope Group!!
I think Fat Joe traded in his Raw Lyrics for more "Tap That Booty" Lyrics..

Post by: Narrator on November 10, 2007, 09:32:38 PM: Yeah, Joe was at least aiight when he was down with D.I.T.C., had Pun writing his shit, and Primo on the track. Beyond that, he ain't so good.
