Good looking out on posting this. Yeah Joe had some joints back in the day. He will still drop some heat every once and a while when he is not trying to duplicate trends or sound like Rick Ross.

Yeah that's true, after all he was in D.I.T.C. so you know he had to have some skills in order to be there.

That's a banging joint no doubt, his first two albums are full of them (haven;t heard his other stuff besides the singles + some more)

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.

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..
It ain't happenin, Bibles I'm still packin them
And jackin demons wit them 44 magnums" T-Bone

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.

Whats DITC?

Slap yourself for asking that question in public.
