You Can Find Fat Joe In Da Club

In his second Webisode, Joe explains how “Make It Rain” came to fruition and says clubs are where he does his homework. Therein lies a problem. Just because a song bumps in the club, doesn’t mean it will everywhere else. I cringe whenever folks justify shitty music with, “It sound good in the club, though.” Regardless of the setting, more artists should take the approach of making good music. Hell, I’ve never heard an Eminem song after hours and he’s done alright for himself. Do what’s best and the rest will follow.

Who are you and what have you done with Guru? Seriously, we go from the emotional rollercoaster ride of thinkin' we're gonna lose one of the game's greatest MCs to some sick pathetic soap opera involving a man of no blood or kin relation denying family members the right to see their loved one. Now yes Keith Elam may not wanna reconcile with folks he hasn't been on good terms with for the past seven years but that's his decision not yours. From the outside lookin' in, you seem really shady. And if Guru's nephew claim is true that you signed documents as Keith Elam's brother and your wife as his sister than that's just plain alarming. An abuse of power. Releasing statements to websites and official Twitter accounts in Guru's name when he doesn't appear to be able to speak on his own behalf is also misleading and completely wrong. Be clear: At this point the only thing relevant and important is the status of Guru's health. Nobody gives a fuck about you or 7 Grand. Guru's legacy is Gang Starr. DJ Premier and Guru made classics. You and Guru make crap. And you should get slapped for meddling in family business.
I'm not dissin' but you shoulda stayed missing. Everybody in the club get tipsy. Nobody in the club remember your name. Damn shame.
Hey, if Fat Joe does his homework in the clubs then good for him. He’s checking out what his tended fan base wants to listen to. You should do what you’re good at. Your niche. Of course the real problem occurs when a vicious circle circle is created in wherein the artist is trapped producing music that his fans supposably want to hear until the fans grow bored of the same old same ole and move on to something else thus leaving the artist and their music behind.
i agree with b dot on this….i fucked around and streamed this nigga’s album earlier today and im still smh. He been in the club way too much and not only that it’s only the clubs in MIA because his shit sounds heavily influenced. He’s Done!!!!!!!!!!
