Fat Joe Chasing History, Denounces Jay-Z Beef, Talks Carter IV
by on October 13th, 2008
Joe warns fans however not to expect the same sound they've been getting from him as he wants to do something "rare."
"I'm doing something rare," he tells MTV.
"I'm taking my time with this album. I'm just picking beats. So far, it's crazy, man. I'm just walking my dogs, making sure I'm picking these beats right, and I'm gonna go for it in a super-major way. I'm trying to come out with four smashes. I got eight songs for the album already. Two of them are those outta-here joints. Nothing you can do. You know when you hear a song on the radio and the first time you hear it, you be like, 'This guy might have one'? When you get that first reaction? I got some of those sitting, waiting. I feel like it's survival of the fittest. I've been around so long — 'What could Fat Joe do that he hasn't done yet?' It's about chasing history for me. Putting up these hits."
As far as the so-called "beef" which ignited this past weekend after Dj Kay Slay resurrected an old Jay-Z verse claiming it was a diss towards Fat Joe, he says there are no problems.
"I have no beef whatsoever with Jay-Z. In fact, we share a common goal…helping to get Barack Obama elected on Nov. 4th" Joe tells Ms. Info.
Joe also spoke to MTV about Lil Wayne's Carter IV album.
"His new album, he's a rock star," Fat Joe says. "He has rock hits. You won't understand what I'm saying till you hear it. Coldplay, Fall Out Boy, everybody gotta get outta here."
"don't bet against him right now!" Joe cautioned. "Don't bet against this guy ever right now. He calls me in the middle of the night: 'Come to the studio.' I get there, this niggaa pressed play, and everything he played was super-duper phenomenal, number-one [smash]. He's singing, 'So I went to get her in my spaceship.' Craziest thing you ever heard in your life. They compared him a lot to Jay-Z, and you could see where he was influenced. But after this next album — I'm not saying he's the best rapper of all time, [but] you can't compare him to any rapper in the world. Because no rapper has done what he's about to do. That's crazy! He's a rock star, man. Hit mania!



























LOL at joe saying “super duper”
Fat Joe: “He’s A Rocc Star”
DaRealNoreagga:MY AZZ MUHFUCCAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
UH OH HERE COMES THE HATE!!!!
daaaaaaammmmnnn………….
daaaaaaammmmnnn………….”
how can u live with yourself being a hater, get a life bruh, wtf. this nigga just flat out said ‘I hate so and so’. lol, i mean i though haters didn’t really know they were actually haters but u seem to know… what is this a new generation, or new breed of haters, yall niggas evolvin’ and that shit’s scary.
bro, who the fuck are you telling to get a life? if anything, that shit should be you since you took the time to “diss” me by calling me a “hater” or whatever. ooooo…i bet you feel so tough. now go on and listen to that failure of an album C3 and Elephant in the Room.
lol, “Ahh man i used to be a wayne fan before i heard his last song, dude is so garbage, i mean all his carter albums went platinum man he sucks! shit! fuck dude man! he gonna flop the next carter im tellin’ ya”
lol, like i said get a life bruh. if u don’t like em stop goin’ to pages related to him, every lil wayne page gets the most comments cause niggas like u sayin’ some non-positive shit on here.
Then what does it take?
It’d be different if he had said Wayne was his FAVORITE ARTIST, then dropping a wack album wouldn’t warrant desertion.
But he was just a fan.
If an artist starts puttin’ out wack shit, I’m not gonna ride with him anymore unless he’s one of my absolute favorite artists.
That doesn’t mean he wasn’t a fan, just means Wayne wasn’t his favorite artist.
And Joe always has one nice song per album, with the rest pretty much being trash.
After all these other people on the site, on this page, even people BEFORE his comments butcher the English language with horrible grammar, you target this kid because you don’t like his opinion?
That’s a bitch move.
At least he makes a point
U ain’t gonna do shit n Wayne’s album is gonna b garbage jus like his last one was
“I’m not saying he’s the best rapper of all time, [but] you can’t compare him to any rapper in the world” WTF iz that supposed 2 mean!..so dis ngga tryn2 insinuate dat wayne iz the best rapper in tha game?!..damn cant wait till Eminem come back and end all dis bullshit.
It’s going to be a massacre. Shady will be shittin all over everyone…
U acting like Wayne is sum kind of God when he’s overrated as hell
FUCK OUTTA HERE
R.I.P STACK BUNDLES
and thats all I have to say about that
Everybody keeps asking me why I am no longer down with the Terror Squad. To answer everyone’s question, let me start by saying that there is no beef. I left Fat Joe’s camp like a gentlemen. I wish him and his family nothing but the best. But it was time for Tony Sunshine to stand on his own two feet and become a leader of his own movement.
So now I’m a free agent. But I recently signed a management deal with Darrin “Dee” Dean. The C.E.O. of Ruff Ryders Entertainment. And the rest is about to become history. I have a new road manager, d.j., street team, etc. So expect to see a new and improved Tony Sunshine for 2008. This is going to be my year. Not my summer! Dee has me currently working in the studio with producers like Swizz Beats & Neo Da Matrix. So expect new hot music from Tony Sunshine very soon. I need my fans to understand that I was going through a lot of industry bullshit. And that is the reason you have not heard new music from Tony Sunshine. But it is “FINALLY” over. And I “FINALLY” got the clearance to do me. And that’s exactly what I’m going to do."
i like lil wayne his rap style
but he’s more like a pop rapper than a real rapper
he is to overrated
i admit he has some SICK lyrics
but 8 out of 10 times he raps about NOTHING
respect to the real rappers of today
like common andre 3000 the game ice cube(of course) and rappers like this
and not rappers like lil wayne
drops. But i bet it will be lyrically disappointing like the
Carter 3.
i cant wait to bootleg dat bitch
i forgot that dude existed
i forgot that dude existed
I been commin to Defsounds on n off for awhile now, and I figured if these ignorant ass niggas is gettin they’re word out, so am I.. This is most likely be the first n last post so read carefully..
First off, I fucks wit Wayne. Been fuckin wit him since C1. However, I’m not happy with the resent work he’s done. Only because the man dont spit the same. I understand most of yall dont like him, for whatever reason that may be… But somebody tell me Why in the hell do the SAME ass niggas go on EVERY Wayne page sayin some ignorant ass shit?
To the man that compared him to McCain… Dude.. Is you serious???
No man should compare another black man to McCain, I dont give a fuck who it is. I honestly hate Fat Joe, n I wouldnt compare that man to McCain..
Yall sit back n hate all day, n what kills me is you niggas post more than one post HATIN on a nigga. You talk about how singin on a track aint coo, bitin a nigga style aint coo.. Since when is Hatin coo?? You niggas make me LOL seriously when you say he aint gon sell or just white ppl buy his shit… You see how many records this man has sold? N the same niggas that be hatin, be the first niggas to get the bootleg just to hear it, and find somethin to hate about… Once again, you niggas kill me.
To the nigga that said “Wayne dont touch niggas like Jay” … Nigga.. You sound soft as hell. How do you say that in a real debate? “Nah nigga, i aint buyin his shit cuz his words dont touch me as much as [Insert Name]” … Listen to what the hell you sayin b.
If you dont like the man, aye.. Thats fine by me, I dont give a fuck. Hell, he dont give a fuck. Niggas wastin mad time commin back postin a bunch of ignorant shit about somebody you dont like.. When the damn economy is fucked up. I come here to read up on my hip hop news n shit.. N I see you fools actin like this?
Come on now.. Yall way better than this man. You dont like him, say it, give a reasonable answer why n get the fuck on. All that “he overated” shit aint cuttin it, YOU may think he is, but his record sales as a whole is killing you opinon my man.. Come up wit some other shit to say.
Most of yall just side wit Jay-Z cuz thats the easy way out, aint finna get dissed for likin Jay…. N yet, that same nigga you dick ridin, fucks wit Wayne.. The nigga you hatin… Yall niggas need to get real…
Its 08, leave that ignorant shit alone… I’m gone…
Obama 08
btw, Lupe on a techno album would be hotness! haha think about that for a second
i was a lil wayne fan since he spit on Juve’s “400 Degreez”, then i got iffy when he jack Jay-Z’s flow, then I got pinched again when I heard Gillie the Kid say he was a ghost writer for Wayne and Wayne has ghostwrtiers, then I lost all respect when I heard he was kissing Baby (Birdman)…. I’m sorry, the music is good… I respect his musical ability, but as a man, no respect. The sad part is I see alot of young kids who think all this shit he’s doing is cool. Lil’ Wayne makes good music, but bad calls
Vote Independent.
he’s probly jus gonna use the auto-tune for EVERY song and collab wit the SAME wack niggas on the khaled albums and tapes and rap about NOTHING!
as for joe, I lost respect for this dude after the Loyalty album (his last good joint!) and ran down to miami n put a grill in his mouth! there’s nothin he can possibly do to an album that’s ne different than what we’ve been hearin over past 8 years.
I’ve heard u at ur best, I’ve heard u at ur worst. time to do somethin else joe!
oh yeah, and FUCK CASH MONEY!!!
Phat Hoe, 1 good song on album, rest of it is trash
why is it hatin jus cuz a muhfucka got an opinion that’s different than your own???
I’ll neva undastand how u youngstas see things.
why support somebody we feel doesn’t deserve to be supported?
and why do we read the articles jus so we can bash ’em??
CUZ THIS A DISCUSSION BOARD AND WE NEED SOMETHIN TO TALK ABOUT!!
so all u wayne dick riders stop cryin like lil babies when the rest of the population is in agreement
Fat Joe’s stacked with hits, fuck all the haters
Since ’94 mother fuckers
Makes me sick that today’s rap is in total destruction.
