According to initial rumors, Fat Joe confronted Papoose before a performance at The Criquet Arena in North Carolina. As the story goes, Cassidy, who was also set to perform along with Fat Joe, Papoose, Gucci Mane and Yo Gotti, had asked Papoose to come to his room so they could talk. Once Pap arrived, Fat Joe, accompanied by nine men stormed the room. Words were exchanged and a fight broke out.
Though Joe and Papoose have different accounts of the scuffle, both rappers have now confirmed the melee did in fact occur.
In other news…
In an interview with San Francisco's KMEL on Monday (March 3), Papoose confirmed the fight rumors, adding that he put "work in" on Fat Joe.
"I'm from Brooklyn, New York, man. We don't bow down to nobody, we don't take no BS from nobody," the rapper said. "This dude came at me sideways, chose to approach me with a bunch of bodyguards and all that, asked me did I have a problem with him. I asked him did he have a problem with me. We got into a scuffle, I did what I did, man. I put my work in."
"I asked the dude for a fair one, Fat Joe," he continued. "
"I told him 'Yo, listen man, let all your mans step outside, my two mans -- I only had two dudes with me, he had like nine or ten with him -- and me and you do the one on one. He didn't wanna do that. He refused to do that. So we just got it on like that. I got it on with all them dudes. Don't deny the facts. He can't deny the fact that I put my work in."
You can check out the interview below.
Fat Joe then confirmed the scuffle and gave his own account of the confrontation. According to Joe, he felt disrespected by Papoose after his appearance with 50 Cent on power 105.
"The point is this, when you on the radio... with 50 Cent, you laughing and he's disrespecting Fat Joe, you in the background heheheing and hahahaing, and your wife is Remy Ma and she's disrespecting Fat Joe on radio and you over there hehehehahaha, and I see you the next day, then I got no choice but you ask you 'Do we got a problem?'," Joe explained.
"So, [Papoose] acted like he might've had a problem. So, Tigger, to tell you the truth, I actually felt sorry for the kid after I gave him the beats. So, I had to explain to him why he got the beats, after..."

Joe's got a problem with 50 Cent, and we all hear Joe talkin that big shit in magazines, on the radio, and TV and everything and then instead of doin what he said he was gonna do with 50 he's gonna go after PAPOOSE?!
Im writing Fat Joe off. Bitch made.
lol ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
yeah Joe makin mo money den pap but as far as da freestyle Joe don't wanna see him
why did getem get trashed.. i mean think about it, what is fat joe? im putting him in the 350lb range, i dont think papoose can beat that up. his fat would just absorb the blows. Hes to slow to beat pap up though so it would just go on forever.
PAPOOSE IZ CUMIN!
Hold up, why aint no one ask Cassidy what happened? didnt this all occur in the room Papoose was meeting Cass in?......lol........Cass must have seen something right?...........did Cass hide under the bed? did he run out da room? did he get involved?........hmmm
I think Joe wupped that ass. Stop hating for a second and think about it. In a hand to hand...
Joe vs Pap: And the winner is Joe.
Joe with 9 other niggas vs Pap: come on, think about it, you know pap lying.
that's all rappers do, run their mouths about how tough they are and scuffle with one another for no reason.
1st of all papoose is fake this is not the 1st time he got hit like a bitch...... 2nd hes not a g hes a rapper and i dont think hes a rapper neither hes using dictionary..I put my work in looooooooooool u lost your watch punk.
you fuckin like g-unot your opinon amounts ta rat shit!!!!!!!!! not defending fat joe pap just to lite ta fight I'm from B-More if you watch the national news if you aint from here you already know aint too many folk throwin up the dic beaters up ya digg!
another reason not to like fat joe!!!!
Yo just wondering have any of you dudes listened to the album yet? I got that shit like yesterday and I haven't bought his music in years but you seriously can't front on it. I mean if you dislike him to the point you don't wana give him a try then it's up to you...but I really gotta recommend that shit cos the production is unbelievable and lyrically Joe killed some of these joints. Premos track says it all. For real, forgetting all this fake-ass beef going on this is a fucking dope hiphop album. Problem is it'll get slept on like Freeways joint - that shit is also ridiculous! Just my 2 cents!
yo i dont care if i get trashed fat joe would smash papoose how could u even front on that?
EXACTLY!!!!!!!!1LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1EVERYBODY KNOWS THT FAT JOE GOT HIS ASS BEAT.........HE NEED TO QUIT FUCKING WITH FOLKS, I MEAN ITS LIKE HE WANNA FUCK WITH EVERYBODY..........50 CENT,PAPOSE,JAY Z,REMY LEAVE FOLKS THE FUCK ALONE!!!!!!!!!!
It's tough, I wonder who really got hit harder... my money is actually on Papoose... fast, skinny and dirty... Joe got no agility, just strengh. But anywho, the real deal here isn't the fight, but another stupid so called beef, stemming from another stupid beef. Pap don't need to get dragged into it. Something tells me not much really went down in the fight, has anyone seen Pap's face after the incident? was just wondering, cos Joe looks okay... coulda taken a couple to the body.
i'm sorry but joe is just fat. there is no strength in pure fat. only in muscle, which fat joe has none of. Pap might have some muscles so he definitaly would of beat Joe's ass.
Pap would've fucked his fat ass up.
Sorry Cuzin But Its A Proven Fact U Get Muscle From Fat (U Gotta Carry It) Thats Y Most Bodyguards Not Always Muscle They Just Big Dudes...But Pap Proly Jumped Him I Know For Sure He Didnt Do That To Joe Face Lol
Lol You Not Gettin It Pimp...They Carry Weight Everywhere They Go So They Not Weak. I Aint Sayin They World Strongest Man Strong Im Sayin That Get Strength From Carryin Weight. Look It Up
that's cuz the body gaurds have done some working out on they're arms. but fat joe? na just pure fat.
It's tragic how 50 has turned the entire east coast scene into a soap opera. When are the elder statesmen of the game going to step up and tells these dudes to quit with the bufoonery. Another sad chapter in NY hip hop, and hip hop in general.
so finally fat joe said it he don't want no problems with 50.. nigaa keep saying he will do punch him .. do that .. and do this.. now he's saying he just wanna live his live !! LMAO
Man real talk Fat Joe big ass would beat that lil skinny nigga down, fuck outta here Papoose you too small on the real. Fat Joe would eat them little love taps you throwin.
If big ass Fat Joe had 9 niggas vs Pap lil ass and 2 dudes FJ an them would break them niggas. Even if you can fight with them numbers you gettin your ass whooped period, and add too it they fat diesel motha fuckas like Fat Joe and some "bodyguards" vs Papoose?
Fuck outta here Papoose, you lyin son.
pap is a small nigga fat joes a fat ass... size always counts... and a bunch of big ass muthah fuckas, pap good luck, hope you was strapped or something
that shit dont mean shit. the only thing that size says is that you come from a family of big motherfuckers. only dumb asses believe size is a factor in a fight. oh yeah scary people believe that dumb shit too.
^^Nigga fuck outta here, you sound like a nigga who never been in a fight before sayin some dumb shit like size dont matter in a fight. Why you think boxing, UFC an shit like that got weight classes?
What you gonna do if a 300 pounder just grab you up and slam you and you 165? You tryna punch his big ass an you hittin all fat and muscle and he charging straight at your ass.
I done fought the bouncers at the club a couple times and I got hands, but when them big niggas throw they weight around and hit you with them heavy ass punches with 300 pounds behind them, you wish you had a bottle to crack over they head.
if size matters why did joe bring help. like i said that shit dont matter.
StandUpGuy,
You got me in my cubicle at work, SCREAMIN! LOL
i believe Joe more then Pap, i mean look at that screenshot of him givin someone the biz in Def Jam Icon (not to mention he gave me the biz in Fight For NY)...
ok let me be for real now. but who cares bout this bullshit. if it was 9 or 10 vs 3, thats almost a guaranteed ass whoopin, but when has it been cool to jump somebody (unless them mufuckas jumped you)? but on the other hand i think Pap would fuck Joe up. agree?
i think pap would fuck joe up too. didnt one of them g-unit niggas already whip joes ass. guess thats why he had so much help.
yes bubba i realize its only a game, hence, "i believe Joe more then Pap, i mean look at that screenshot of him givin someone the biz in Def Jam Icon (not to mention he gave me the biz in Fight For NY)...
ok let me be FOR REAL now." maybe i shoulda made it clearer that me talkin bout the games were a joke
record sell mofos thats all its about notice how they both dropping,thats all its about.One things is Pap has to stop saying Cassidy invited him to his room that shit sounds funny.On that note jus remember this is about record sells and bottom line is RAPPERS THINK WE ARE DAMN
peace
he did say it was females in there u ass
fat joe a pussy, hate dat fuk, i rekon pap, lyk david n goliath or sum shit
U DAMN RIGHT FAT ASS JOE IS NOTHING BUT P.U.S.S.Y THATS WHAT HE IS
Ummm okay let me get this straight you get mad at the nigga that is laughing in the background but you don't get at the nigga that's saying the shit....Bitch ass nigga.. If you gonna go at somebody go at 50... hold up that might put your career in the choke hold....
I agree with that statement. Take that shit up with 50. At first glance Fat Joe must be looking at Paps as an easy target.
Maybe it's all bullshit...smh
50 wasn't there...He had access to pap cuz they WAS doing a show together ya know?
50 ass prolly in fuckin Japan somewhere who knows???
Fat Joe and PAP see each other more often..Like EVERYNIGHT on TOUR!!!!
50 be on the move...
THANK YOU SKEEAZ....
TOOK THE WORDS RIGHT OUTTA MY MOUTH... 50 WASN'T THERE SO THAT WASN'T THE ISSUE AT THE MOMENT.
Skeaz...I with you on that. Good point. It's pretty obvious Fat Joe chances of getting close enough to 50 for a fair one is slim to none. Anyways, the whole story is pathetic.
Some straight up bitch shit. The beef with 50 is bullshit by itself, but now draggin anybody into it that fucks with 50, weak ass muthafucka. Fat Joe a actor/weak rapper. Fat Joe answered 50's question, "Tell me when u piss do sit or do you stand?"
Reason 1 said it all my niggaz, it's all a publicity stunt. Fat joe like 6'3 285 lbs. vs. papoose who's like 5'10 170 lbs. No way Papoose could handle a dude that big.
pap never said he whooped his ass, all he said was that he put his work in.
so why did joe say ||"it neva happen".....and i swr pap rolls with his boys not body guards
it is funny that he says they never see papoose in new york...what about you?
HOL UP DOE, DID DIS NIGGA FAT JOE SAY PAP IS WACK??? HAS HE LISTENED 2 ANY OF HIS OWN MUSIC LATELY???
If this fight actually happened, then that wuz too unfair. As big as fat joe is, he didn't need no damn bodyguards against like only three guys. He a punk ass fo real, niggaz can't fight their own battles anymore and always gotta have someone to help them.
FAT HOE AINT DO SHIT. WITH HIS LYING ASS. I THINK PAP DEALT WITH HIS BITCH ASS.
Of course someone is lying. In my opinion I think Joe is lying. I will approach this like I don't know either one of them. Why? Because I really don't. People kill me how they get on posts & blogs & act as though they know the celebrities personally. Joe denied the whole scuffle even happened in the first place. Like there is no such thing as the internet. Did he think it would all stay in Cass's hotel room? He can't be that stupid. Or atleast I hope not. It's funny how he calls Pap out for doing a West Coast song w/ Snoop on his single. Isn't EVERY song Joe does now w/ DJ Khalid, Wayne, or someone else from the south? Ummmmmm.... Yes. I thought so. He even reps Miami now. So don't talk about Pap's dedication to NY if your's has been in question for the last couple of years. And if he & Pap weren't boys before the incident, he can't call that man out because he was LAUGHING in the background. That shit is REALLY elementary. And they were performing at a show w/ a handful of other well known artists in a state that NONE of them are from. Who believes that Pap only had two dudes w/ him & Joe said he only had four w/ him. Rappers travel DEEP. Especially Joe. I've been to concerts around my way where Joe has performed. Not as the headliner, but one of many. And his entourage is DEEP. Pap, in my opinion, doesn't seem like the type. He seems like a loaner. Not in a bad way. Just in the sense that he only keeps a few REALLY close. Like as far as who accompanies him to shows. Joe told on himself. He said that he is all about love & partying. Doesn't that sound like the type of rapper that has EVERYONE he knows w/ him in order to have a good time? Pap kept it real from WHAT I HEAR. Joe sounded like he was trying TOO hard to make himself look like he just flat out punished Pap. He went as far as to say that Pap asked for his watch back & even gave him a hug. LOL!! Come on Joe!! Joe said in a song off of his last album, "You know all of US rappers are great liars." That say ALOT. And I'm not even a Pap fan. I like his musical content, but I don't like Joe's music. But still, Pap just said he popped that man in the face. He said that he got his in. He didn't said that he whipped his ass. He just said that he did what he had to do. Which is being real. Joe sound like he put thought into his story. He knocked on EVERY door downstairs. Ok Joe. You would have to be deep to go on a Kamikaze mission like that. He just wants people to think he's hard. I'm a real dude. Not "street", but real. I handle mine & don't back down either. But I know when to fight & when not to. What Joe's saying is like going to your enemy's (example) to fight & only going w/ three other people. All the while not knowing who or what he has in there. Sounds stupid Joe, but I guess that also makes him sound "street" in his mind. Look at the Saigon & Mobb Deep tape. Look how deep the Mobb was & look at the three or four people Saigon had w/ him. Joe rolls that deep. Rappers are great actors & story tellers. Joe should name his album "Aesop's Fables: As told by Fat Joe." And of course Cass or any of the other rappers aren't going to take sides because they're cool w/ both camps. That's why Joe made it a point to throw that in there. When I used to lie when I was younger, I would always name drop someone who would stay tight lipped or someone who would go along w/ my lie. Case & point, like Fat Joe is doing. And how would Joe know if 50 or Pap is ever in NY? He's NEVER there himself. He's made himself and honorary FLA resident. And people need to stop talking about 50. I think he's a comedian, businessman, & good music dude. And I'm not even a fan. People call him a snitch but can't verify anything he's snitch about. In that case, wouldn't EVERY rapper be a snitch? I'm being serious. Because doesn't every rapper talk about what he's done, is doing, & will do? And it's all ILLEGAL. And they even mention people who they did, is doing, or will do the illegal shit w/. That's rap. But sorry for the novels guys. Rap is my most opinionated subject. Again, my bad.
Cosign.Damn dude, u must've been bored or sumthin. But good point though.
Good shit. Long, but explains it from one standpoint.
O.K I SEE YALL POINT BUT,IT SAYS CASS INVITED PAP TO HIS ROOM TO TALK,IM GUESSIN FROM THE LIL RUN INN THEY HAD AT A CLUB A COUPLE MONTHS BACK.DID CASS SET HIM UP?AND IF CASS WAS THERE AND SAW IT POP OFF HE KNOWS WHO GOT THEY AZZ BEAT,SUMMA THESE INTERVIEWERS SHOULD ASK CASS,I CAINT SAY WHO GOT WHUT CUZ IM NOT 100% SURE SO IM NOT GONE COMMENT LIKE I KNO WHUT WENT DOWN..
now this is some funny shit what joey is saying, look at the hypocrite.joe has always said that 50 came at him and jada for no reason, now why did joey come at papoose? ok
the same shit, if you a street nigga and niggas chillin with you enemies and sending signals, then there is problem.pap chillin with 50 = joe and jada on that "new york" track while ja was sending subliminals.niggas never see the logics untils the shoe is on the other foot.lol
Wow. I'm glad something is going on in the industry. Its been boring for a while. Sad its within New York...again.
LOL this is good stuff.
Peace!
Oh! for the man trying to diss Pap for not dropping albums, thats actually a GOOD thing. Today unless you got your own thing set up. I wouldn't wanna hear a commercialized pap album.
Thats why Joe drops albums. He aint got no identity, he makes music based on what everyone else is doing. Think about it...its evident in the music he makes and the collabos he choses.
K-Rob that is simply stupid logic...
You'll niggas sound so fucking stupid. Now Pap's my man and I love Fat Joe but if you think that Pap fucked up a 300ib man with 9 niggas you must be on some CRACK ! Pap must have got his work in but to say that he fucked up big homey be for fucking real. And 50 is just a steriod woman, sitting talking shit about fat joe to remy and Papoose. Come the fuck on, You are a more of a successful artist than Fat Joe. For real 50 has women tendency !!!!
Well since Fat Joe is determining to beat down any nigga that was laughing, he might as well beat down the whole Tri State area. Did any of you cats listen to that shit live? Trust me that shit was mad funny. Pap even clowned Max B that night,…it was must hear radio.
Now not to instigate shit But real talk, Cass & Pap have had a fall out right, both exchanged shots in a few records (yo but pap murdered him on that ‘Hustla’ beat). So my only question is how the fuck that Fat elephant nigga knew where Pap was at? Smells funny, Hope Cass ain’t playing dirty. And I Fux with Pap hardbody, but honestly B, I hope your niggaz jumped in,…smell me? Cuz if 9 niggaz came in the room all ready to throw down you bet your ass somebody got a fat lip. And fuck fat ho, he should have given my Bk nigga a fair shot, he talking mad greasy like he on some boss shit,…ain’t nobody in NY respect Joe man.
nah that you aint a hustler wasnt aimed at Cass
What it was aimed at cass nigga,…why is he sayin “how you hustling when you can’t bail your ass out”? that’s when Cass couldn’t make bail nigga.
Wipe that dust of your Cd bump that,…then Scream at me
at the beginnin of the song the nicca said "shout out to Swizz Beats and Cassidy I fuck wit yall niccas but its alotta niccas out here claimin they hustlin but aint flip nothin but a cell phone so we gon put em on blast" you might need to recheck that
aint nobody respect joe pussy nigga right there
aint nobody respect joe pussy nigga right there
Joe is a frontin ass nicca cuz if Pap really got pound out like he sayin why would Pap be the 1 puttin it out there while Joe denyin it...you dudes is gullible if you think he won by default just cuz he a sloppy nicca and Pap skinny cuz its plenty of fat muthafuckas that aint nice wit they hands
Lol, Pap got in that ass. I woulda never thought that nigga had some scrap in him, but I guess my nigga wasn't going.
Lol...everyone hate fat joe...lol..i dont give a shit who beat up who cause just like politics everyone in the game be bullshittin but on some music shit..pap come wit that heat and fat joe lost it when he basically stop fucking with the D.I.T.C...and went for the loot....
ok can u imagine fat joe being able to chase and handle skinny papoose who is OBVIOUSLY kwiker....come back 2 reality, joe is a pussy acting hard
lool joe actin like a child who is mad cuz som1 was laughing at his big ass lool
joes favorite line is "that nigga aint never in new york"...while he out in maimi and in the south sucking penis
shout out to floyd mayweather, mohamed ali....that my inspiration
joe is a liarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...how can 40 dudes fit into 1 rooom
i fucks wit pap, but can someone tell me why all the rappers cant get along. that shit is dumb. i thought yall niggas was grown. grow the fuck up and act like it. they so concerned with street credibility, but the only peolple that care about street credibility are people on their way to prison or someone thats already. either way who wants to be in that situation besides a damn fool. fuck fat joe wack ass.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAh fat joe is the biggest pussy beefin a smaller nigga wit nine mans, pap said he told him one on one. what a fag he was prolly in the back watchin shit go down but if any of the two got hurt, its definitly joe he wouldnt be able to box a healthy ny nigga. i wounder what cass was sayin after that tho..
Cass is gonna have to step up and let us no what happened in that room. Both of these guys claim to have done this or that, s
