Fat Joe Inducted In Bronx Hall Of Fame

Friday, April 20 2012 9:00 AM EST | Posted by: Big Homie | Posted in: Blog, True Story

No one reps the BX quite like Crack. Fat Joe is among the inductees that will be honored at “The Bronx Ball” on May 19 at Orchard Beach for his representation of the borough. Joey tells AHH:

“I am extremely thrilled and grateful to be inducted in this year’s Bronx Walk of Fame. The Bronx is vibrant, colorful, and filled with rich history and through the years it has been the inspiration that has helped me grow as an artist. Thank you to Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr., for allowing me to be among such an illustrious group of fellow Bronxites that are being honored.”

    Word, @Pap.

    This man ain’t been on Trinity Ave. since 50 Cent ran him outta NYC. Not feeling this guy’s legacy. Yeah he made some hot records but if you from The South Bronx and you know his REAL back story you wouldn’t fool w/ him too much either. And Ruben Diaz is a chump for this btw, exactly what has Joe done for The BX to be in the hall tho? Please advise. Or did one Hispanic give another Hispanic a pass for bring Hispanic? I call bullshit.

    GET THE FUCK OFF OF 5-0′S AKA 50′S DICK, He ruined hip-hop just as much as fat hoe did.

  15. Until recently we’ve worked with the Bronx Tourism Council (at least 7 years) . I would like to say congrats to Fat Joe. I hope other hip hop luminaries receive the honor in years to come
