6:23
Speaker 1: coming from the extremes. You came from Tom about your
6:26
Speaker 1: life and books and everything. But that's that's I understand.
6:30
Speaker 1: I'm talking about it just the kind of like the
6:32
Speaker 1: main screaming brace of Fat Joe. How do you know,
6:35
Speaker 1: Fat Joe's pretty mainstream, you know what I'm saying. We'd
6:37
Speaker 1: like to keep it black and brown all the time,
6:40
Speaker 1: but the truth is white people that they love that
6:43
Speaker 1: Joe too. They love what's love. They loved you, you
6:46
Speaker 1: know they I'm one of the most recognizable faces of
6:49
Speaker 1: hip hop globally, um anywhere, Like there's nothing you can
6:54
Speaker 1: I can tell you. One time I went to Morocco
6:57
Speaker 1: and I got in the thing and I want to
6:59
Speaker 1: stereotipe nobody, but they just drove in the desert, kept
7:02
Speaker 1: driving for like an hour. I said, oh shit, they
7:04
Speaker 1: got me. The taliband the Taliban got me, I said.
7:08
Speaker 1: I really thought I was getting kidnapped. And they just
7:11
Speaker 1: kept riding into the desert. Riding into the desert. I
7:14
Speaker 1: was like, it was numb, but camels and shit. I
7:16
Speaker 1: was like, oh, fucking Taliban, right, I thought they got me.
7:20
Speaker 1: They pull up into this hotel was like literally an
7:23
Speaker 1: oasis in the middle of nowhere. Like two hours into
7:27
Speaker 1: the desert, we go up in there. I'm like, oh,
7:29
Speaker 1: this fly. I there was two white girls sun tanning
7:33
Speaker 1: by the pool. The whole ship was empty. It was
7:35
Speaker 1: two white girl. White girl turned around and I was like, oh,
7:38
Speaker 1: that's Fat Joe hey and turned back around. I said,
7:40
Speaker 1: damn you famous man. A white girl turned around and
7:48
Speaker 1: she's like, oh, fat Joe, I want you this. I said,
7:50
Speaker 1: damn you famous. You know what I'm saying. So, you know,
7:54
Speaker 1: I've always been like a mainstream and behind the scenes.
7:57
Speaker 1: You know, I'm a family man. I'm a great person.
8:00
Speaker 1: People know me. We'd get along, you know. It's it's
8:03
Speaker 1: you know, That's who I am realistically, you know what
8:05
Speaker 1: I'm saying. So you know, we always like to keep
8:08
Speaker 1: it uplifting our people, but we really offer everybody. And
8:12
Speaker 1: if you keep your ears open, you're always hear a
8:14
Speaker 1: new Fat Joe story. I heard a new Fat Joel
8:15
Speaker 1: story recently. I overheard some people talking and they said that,
8:19
Speaker 1: did you did you help to discover Daddy Yankee or
8:21
Speaker 1: something like that or no, I wouldn't say that that
8:25
Speaker 1: was that was that. They got really mad at me
8:27
Speaker 1: with that story. Um, Daddy Yankee. First of all, it
8:31
Speaker 1: was it was the first Drink Champs. And so people
8:36
Speaker 1: ain't understand what a podcast is, but podcasting it's almost
8:41
Speaker 1: like gossiping. But but if you say the truth and
8:45
Speaker 1: you and you get the facts, then it is what
8:47
Speaker 1: it is. But Daddy Yankee used to be up here
8:51
Speaker 1: in the Bronx and he used to be running down
8:53
Speaker 1: on us like crazy. We had Jimmy's Bronze Cafe on Smash,
8:57
Speaker 1: so he would be running down on us and he'd
8:59
Speaker 1: be like, yo, yo, yo, you know what I'm saying,
9:01
Speaker 1: Be like, yo, you the leader, You the lead. He
9:03
Speaker 1: even following us everywhere. You watched the Big pun one
9:07
Speaker 1: hundred percent video. When I first the first time I
9:09
Speaker 1: went to Porto Rico, um out there. We went to
9:13
Speaker 1: Puerto Rico because I was scared to fly. So the
9:16
Speaker 1: first time I went to Puerto Rico, he was with
9:17
Speaker 1: us every second of the day. Look the man, you
9:20
Speaker 1: know this before Reggae Jone blew up and so the
9:23
Speaker 1: wild story I told that was crazy was that, you know,
9:27
Speaker 1: I always liked this guy like I've always had loved
9:30
Speaker 1: for him. And then when he put out his record
9:32
Speaker 1: and he blew up the Gosselina, I was so happy
9:35
Speaker 1: for him. From far away, I ain't see him. And
9:37
Speaker 1: then lean back to number one in America, so they
9:40
Speaker 1: both coming up. And then I finally got to see
9:43
Speaker 1: him in Madison Square Garden. And when I seen him,
9:45
Speaker 1: I was so happy to see him. The man turned
9:47
Speaker 1: around like he never met me in his life. Wow,
9:50
Speaker 1: he turned around, was like acting like boom. I was like, no, why,
9:56
Speaker 1: Like I can't believe this guy. Know this guy ten years,
10:00
Speaker 1: I'm in every show, we got everything we did, you know,
10:02
Speaker 1: it was it was a very big disappointment, you know
10:05
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So you know, every time I see him,
10:07
Speaker 1: it's like cool but it's like, you know, yeah, yeah,
10:10
Speaker 1: it's not the same. It's not you know what I'm saying.
10:12
Speaker 1: We don't we don't condone that. And what's what's going
10:15
Speaker 1: on with with your accounting picking? Man? I wouldn't tell
10:19
Speaker 1: you as my accounting picking because the b d Old accountants.
10:23
Speaker 1: We're talking about the everybody's accounting. So it ain't just me.
10:26
Speaker 1: It's like, you know, they everybody's they're the biggest accountants.
10:31
Speaker 1: So what happens is us as creatives, you know, we
10:36
Speaker 1: spent so much time. We're doing books, we're doing TV shows,
10:39
Speaker 1: we're doing shows. We don't running businesses. We try and
10:42
Speaker 1: take our creativity to another level. I mean, we think
10:46
Speaker 1: we're supposed to trust these people. And so what I
10:49
Speaker 1: could tell everybody out there, every athlete, it really mostly
10:53
Speaker 1: because you're a businessman, you probably most like me. Watch it,
10:56
Speaker 1: every athlete, every artist, don't trust them. Don't trust the
11:00
Speaker 1: business manager, don't trust the accountants because we trust them
11:04
Speaker 1: to keep our family safe. And the saddest thing is
11:08
Speaker 1: when you turn around and you trust these people and
11:11
Speaker 1: you turn around and say, yo, these people stealing from
11:13
Speaker 1: me Ponzi skim Like this is not a game. Like,
11:17
Speaker 1: these people really stealing my money, taking fake credit cards
11:22
Speaker 1: under my wife's name, going to the ATM every day,
11:25
Speaker 1: pulling out cash in the building they work in, and
11:30
Speaker 1: you know, robbing up a baseball players and robbing like
11:33
Speaker 1: David Ponzi skil they were paying. The way you protect
11:38
Speaker 1: yourself is unfortunately you got to go to Oprah one
11:42
Speaker 1: oh one watch all your money. There's no way around it.
11:46
Speaker 1: Uned right now. The way since I caught this, you know,
11:50
Speaker 1: I've been signing my own checks, confirming my own wires,
11:54
Speaker 1: doing everything, and and it's crazy because it's a lot
11:58
Speaker 1: more stressful. Big Rich is in on that too, and
12:02
Speaker 1: I hate that. I hate to think about money the
12:05
Speaker 1: way Fat Joe do it is. I just work, work, work, work, work,
12:08
Speaker 1: and no I'm making money, y'all making money. I know
12:11
Speaker 1: what this is. I know what this is. I don't
12:12
Speaker 1: want to watch every single thing my wife buys, my
12:16
Speaker 1: daughter buys. You know, I don't like that, right, that stress?
12:21
Speaker 1: So we trust these people and turn around they robbing
12:25
Speaker 1: us in every corner like it's incredible, and we try
12:28
Speaker 1: to go to them. I never sued nobody in my life.
12:30
Speaker 1: You know how many people robbed for me you know
12:33
Speaker 1: how many people stole my songs and did lean back
12:37
Speaker 1: a hundred, lean with it, rock with it? You know
12:40
Speaker 1: everybody could have been sued like for all these you
12:43
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. I never sued a person in
12:44
Speaker 1: my life, but this was it. And and this is
12:47
Speaker 1: a wake up call, not just for Fat Joe because
12:50
Speaker 1: BDEO did what they did. We talked to them members
12:52
Speaker 1: like yo, look you're stealing like we're shown, and these
12:56
Speaker 1: are the people you trust. That assistant was paying her
13:01
Speaker 1: daughter's tuition. Come on like this out of control? How
13:05
Speaker 1: did you catch him? Um, it's embarrassing, It's embarrassing. Uh
13:11
Speaker 1: my crib. The mortgage company told me it's the same
13:15
Speaker 1: ship that happened to me before I went to jail
13:17
Speaker 1: for something I was asking. It's the same fucking play bro.
13:21
Speaker 1: It's unbelievable play they called me. Yeah, I thought it
13:26
Speaker 1: was fun. I walked out like I'm making money. I
13:32
Speaker 1: don't know if you understand that right, Like I'm on fire,
13:35
Speaker 1: like there's just no way, no, no, no, I am
13:40
Speaker 1: being It's true. I'm not a motherfucking race car. I'm
13:47
Speaker 1: getting it right. So when when the mortgage company called
13:51
Speaker 1: me and they're like, hey, you're late on your payment.
13:53
Speaker 1: I'm like, this impossible. It must be a mistake. So
13:56
Speaker 1: when they sent me this stuff that we missed payments,
13:59
Speaker 1: we like, I'm like, I got a weird feeling in
14:04
Speaker 1: my stomach and I said, damn, this feel like last time.
14:08
Speaker 1: But I thought that ain't we smarter, ain't we more advanced?
14:13
Speaker 1: And so I don't want to drop names, but the
14:15
Speaker 1: biggest artists and ball players and everybody you know it's
14:19
Speaker 1: signed to these to the same accountant B do So
14:24
Speaker 1: I mean with tons of billionaires that I know got
14:27
Speaker 1: their money there. So I'm like, no way, we can't
14:30
Speaker 1: get robbed from the from And then we start looking
14:32
Speaker 1: at we see this, we see this, we see this,
14:34
Speaker 1: we see this, we see this, we see this. I'm like,
14:36
Speaker 1: oh my god. Like and so what happens is listen
14:39
Speaker 1: to artists. Listen from the young ones to the old ones.
14:45
Speaker 1: Fat Joe's no dummy. If it happens to Fat Joe. Please,
14:49
Speaker 1: this should be all out alert, not just BDEO. Everybody
14:53
Speaker 1: who has an accountant in the game need to check
14:56
Speaker 1: and get a forensic accounting to check your money because
14:59
Speaker 1: these people start thinking your money's dare money. Like I
15:03
Speaker 1: started thinking about the women, the women's at my daughter's
15:06
Speaker 1: sweet sixteen, right, and I'm thinking about if she's a
15:09
Speaker 1: real crook, what she is, Right, she's sitting down, She's
15:12
Speaker 1: probably sitting there with her husband, like you would lead
15:14
Speaker 1: this guy spending all our money in this party. You
15:19
Speaker 1: lead this guy spend all our money in this party. Goddamn.
15:23
Speaker 1: And it's so it's crazy because you're working to secure
15:27
Speaker 1: your family and the people who are supposed to protect
15:29
Speaker 1: you are robbing you. This the second time this happened
15:32
Speaker 1: to me, Like, same play. See what happens to them now? Um, well,
15:37
Speaker 1: we had to sue him, and we didn't want to
15:40
Speaker 1: do it, but we suit him and say, hey, look
15:42
Speaker 1: we're showing you ten fifteen different examples with proof that
15:47
Speaker 1: your people are like we was. We was paying with
15:50
Speaker 1: my credit card hundreds of thousands on baseball players. It's
15:53
Speaker 1: a Ponzi skin Rob Peter didn't give the ball. We
15:56
Speaker 1: was paying other people's credit cards, right, like hundred thousand
16:00
Speaker 1: and eighty thousand for baseball players I never met in
16:02
Speaker 1: my life. Then we got some payments on my credit
16:06
Speaker 1: card that baseball players. Now it was incredible, like This
16:10
Speaker 1: is like a real this is a big problem. This
16:12
Speaker 1: is this is and nobody you know, I'm no rat,
16:18
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, But principle, it's principle. You
16:20
Speaker 1: cannot steal millions of dollars for me and think you
16:23
Speaker 1: know we're not coming and I'm already paying you too
16:27
Speaker 1: much money. When we started figuring out how much were
16:30
Speaker 1: spaying them, you know, we went back because they ain't
16:34
Speaker 1: been giving us. That's another thing. They ain't give us
16:36
Speaker 1: our records. Well we figured out this. We have to
16:39
Speaker 1: figure this all out of ourselves. Like they didn't give
16:42
Speaker 1: us like you would think they'd be like, oh, you're
16:44
Speaker 1: my partner. Maybe the employee stole. We want to help you.
16:47
Speaker 1: It's been straight up like no help, no, you know nothing.
16:53
Speaker 1: Oh they know, they know that she stole. But they
16:56
Speaker 1: also know. But they messed up because I told them
16:59
Speaker 1: I am the mouth of the South. Like you do
17:02
Speaker 1: not want me talking about you robbed me with a megaphone,
17:05
Speaker 1: Like you know you robbed me. Look we have the proof.
17:08
Speaker 1: Why don't you just pay me back? Nah, sue us.
17:12
Speaker 1: So the arrogancy of such a big company, They're like, nah,
17:16
Speaker 1: I get it, sue us. Oh you don't fucked up now,
17:18
Speaker 1: because and I'm telling every artist, if it having a
17:23
Speaker 1: fat Joe's no dummy. If it having a fat Joe
17:28
Speaker 1: is happening to you right now, right right now. If
17:32
Speaker 1: you're not watching your accounts on your phone, if it's
17:36
Speaker 1: just oh we got ten thousand, Oh we got too
17:39
Speaker 1: Oh we just paid, you're playing yourself. Don't trust none
17:43
Speaker 1: of them. Don't let them think that they're your friends.
17:46
Speaker 1: They business managers. They know. I never got robbed by
17:48
Speaker 1: a gun with it with a guy with a gun
17:50
Speaker 1: in my life, a guy with a gun. I've never
17:54
Speaker 1: been robbed by a guy with a gun. I've been
17:56
Speaker 1: robbed by men and lady with suits on that smile
17:59
Speaker 1: at me all the time. I act like they're good people.
18:02
Speaker 1: Those are the people that robbed me every single time.
18:05
Speaker 1: I've never been robbed. Stick them up. Never. But I've
18:09
Speaker 1: been robbed for millions and millions of dollars of these
18:11
Speaker 1: people who think that they're smarter than us. But there's
18:15
Speaker 1: something Uncle Dan always says. He said, what happens in
18:17
Speaker 1: the wash comes out in the rest. So the last
18:19
Speaker 1: conversation I had with this employee, I say, yo, Vanessa,
18:25
Speaker 1: you know if you stole, I'm gonna catch you. The
18:30
Speaker 1: last words no no, I never, and everybody's responses always no, no,
18:35
Speaker 1: no no. And so now they got me on highler.
18:38
Speaker 1: Now I'm watching everything nine ten dollars. I'm watching everything smoking.
18:43
Speaker 1: I have to reevaluate my business situations with everybody. So
18:47
Speaker 1: now people who are really really trusted the word trust
18:51
Speaker 1: don't exist with me no more. When it comes to money,
18:53
Speaker 1: I believe that if you leave somebody with too much time,
18:57
Speaker 1: who knows that you're not watching your money correct. Unfortunately,
19:01
Speaker 1: the temptation is too big, and they still unless you
19:05
Speaker 1: got a straight, die hard I don't steal person. So
19:09
Speaker 1: I mean, this is what I figured out with this
19:11
Speaker 1: because you know, we treat these people like family. We
19:14
Speaker 1: welcome them in our homes. You know, we got the
19:16
Speaker 1: watching your kids because we got pictures that their kids. Hey,
19:19
Speaker 1: it's the first day at school. Meanwhile, I don't know
19:22
Speaker 1: I'm paying for the daughters school, paying for school. Listen.
19:26
Speaker 1: The first thing I do every morning when I wake
19:28
Speaker 1: up is check all my accounts and credit cards. Very
19:32
Speaker 1: check your account? I do, I do? I check everything. Hey,
19:34
Speaker 1: guess what's this? I've been checking my account boy, that
19:37
Speaker 1: thing is rising to the top. But you know, you know,
19:41
Speaker 1: you're got check on my accounts. But the only thing
19:43
Speaker 1: is you're gonna watch with your daughter, spends with your wife,
19:45
Speaker 1: spends all the time. You'll be like the baby. Now,
19:51
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest. I mean, they ain't stealing, you
19:54
Speaker 1: know the boy. They know how to help themselves. Who
20:00
Speaker 1: and they don't hear no type of like, Yo, we
20:02
Speaker 1: gotta watch y' out, we gotta be nah. They don't
20:04
Speaker 1: know what that means all the way up, Yo, they
20:08
Speaker 1: do not know what that means. Now, he was on
20:13
Speaker 1: Charlemagne show and people took something that you said and
20:16
Speaker 1: didn't understand it. They didn't understand you understood it. Those
20:19
Speaker 1: people outside That's what's That's the way I explained it.
20:22
Speaker 1: People inside the culture understand like that is the best
20:26
Speaker 1: case scenario. Just take what I got lead me to
20:30
Speaker 1: be all right, guys, So for me to simplify it
20:33
Speaker 1: for people who have never been involved with crime, right
20:38
Speaker 1: is I wanted to talking to y'all. I was talking
20:42
Speaker 1: directly to the guys who's sticking people up and hopefully
20:46
Speaker 1: we saved some lives. That's what I was trying to do.
20:49
Speaker 1: And so for some reason you asked me what's my position?
20:52
Speaker 1: I realized that as an OG in the game that's
20:55
Speaker 1: been in the street, and the streets respect me. It's
20:58
Speaker 1: my obligation now to talk to the youth and let
21:01
Speaker 1: him know the truth. Now, people have been robbing people
21:05
Speaker 1: before Christ. You get it. Cowboys and Indians. They're gonna rob.
21:13
Speaker 1: If you got a guy who's starving out there, but
21:17
Speaker 1: he's a tough guy and aggressive, he's gonna rob. So
21:20
Speaker 1: there's nothing we could do about that job. There's gonna
21:22
Speaker 1: be prostitution, there's gonna be somebody who's who they've been
21:26
Speaker 1: before Christ. There's different jobs that we prefer people don't have,
21:31
Speaker 1: but they're gonna have them, right, So he's gonna rob
21:35
Speaker 1: right now if you rob. The point I was gonna
21:38
Speaker 1: what I was trying to make was like, why you
21:41
Speaker 1: gonna kill the man and take his life? It's the
21:46
Speaker 1: only problem I got. Two days ago, I watched a
21:48
Speaker 1: guy Robert Bodega right here and dow y'all. The man
21:52
Speaker 1: was on his knees prying showed him the status like, Yo,
21:55
Speaker 1: look look you forgot something one did in the refrigerator. Yeah,
21:58
Speaker 1: there you go. He's God turned around, Bob shoots him
22:02
Speaker 1: in the head. That's pure evil. And so listen, guys,
22:06
Speaker 1: we are really I know people have been saying this, father,
22:09
Speaker 1: but they've just been saying it. The Devil's in the streets.
22:13
Speaker 1: The devil. Not bad people, not this the devil. The
22:18
Speaker 1: devil is in the streets more than ever and alive.
22:24
Speaker 1: Because my thing is when you rob somebody said your
22:26
Speaker 1: ribs just touching, you're aggressive, you gotta eat. I know
22:32
Speaker 1: they're gonna do that. They've been doing that. I have
22:35
Speaker 1: done that, you see. So I speak from a position now.
22:38
Speaker 1: If I would have went with Charlemagne on The Beautiful
22:40
Speaker 1: Show and said you guys are they would have been like, Yo,
22:43
Speaker 1: you're a hypocrite, bro. You were sticking dudes up in
22:46
Speaker 1: the bronx. We know. So I had to keep it
22:48
Speaker 1: real with the people I was talking to, right, but
22:51
Speaker 1: never I work every day. I'm just told you a
22:53
Speaker 1: situation where a guy would have suit is robbing me.
22:56
Speaker 1: I don't want no one to get robbed. That was
22:59
Speaker 1: not the message. The messages like, hey, guys, I know
23:02
Speaker 1: y'all fuck with me. Ya, don't kill bro, do me
23:05
Speaker 1: a favor, man, Just rob them. You got go u
23:09
Speaker 1: paw it make some money. I don't care, but leave
23:12
Speaker 1: the man live. And so what happens is on rappers
23:16
Speaker 1: are dying breed. I'm not lying to you like rappers
23:19
Speaker 1: can't even go nowhere no more. It's not even comfortable
23:22
Speaker 1: to leave your house. I used to look at Calor
23:24
Speaker 1: and be like, yo, it's something wrong with you. I swear,
23:27
Speaker 1: are you depressed? You never known it's bad out there?
23:30
Speaker 1: You know I'm chilling, And now I find myself like that.
23:34
Speaker 1: I'm in my crib and I'm just like, yo, you know,
23:36
Speaker 1: and I'm a I'm the guy you see on every
23:39
Speaker 1: corner and haul them the Bronx talking to everybody like
23:44
Speaker 1: I'm like, now you got me in the crib like
23:47
Speaker 1: and it's crazy because look at what's happening, and they're
23:50
Speaker 1: killing all of you. They're killing the one after the other,
23:54
Speaker 1: the pop smoke, the p and B that, this one,
23:56
Speaker 1: the nipsey that this this that like. And so my
23:59
Speaker 1: problem is why we have so much self hate now,
24:02
Speaker 1: Charlotte Mane, you know, I get beef all the time.
24:06
Speaker 1: It's a it is truly a form of colorism where
24:10
Speaker 1: people look at me be like we understand what he's saying,
24:13
Speaker 1: but we don't like how he's not the right look
24:16
Speaker 1: for the message. The people feel like that, like why
24:20
Speaker 1: is he talking that real? He ain't, you know, but listen,
24:23
Speaker 1: nobody else gonna talk it. I want to know whatever
24:26
Speaker 1: OG is trying to talk to you about real issues
24:29
Speaker 1: in life. And it puts me in a bull's eye.
24:34
Speaker 1: It puts me in harm's way when I'm talking to
24:37
Speaker 1: all this realness. You get what I'm saying. But I
24:40
Speaker 1: do that because I want my life. You see this book,
24:44
Speaker 1: the Book of Jose. Book of Jose is a transparency book.
24:50
Speaker 1: This book right here. If you're going through a dark
24:53
Speaker 1: time in your life, you read this book, you're gonna
24:55
Speaker 1: be able to smile. You're gonna be like, how is
24:58
Speaker 1: this guy who got bullied? You see that face, that
25:00
Speaker 1: face in a tough face, that faces I got my
25:03
Speaker 1: ass whipped every day by twenty guys. You're looking at
25:06
Speaker 1: a guy who was getting his ass whooped every day,
25:10
Speaker 1: was still able to smile. Guess what, the community we
25:13
Speaker 1: raised two million dollars for for the burning victims, those
25:17
Speaker 1: the guys used to bust my ass, and we still
25:20
Speaker 1: raised two million dollars for him. This is the place
25:23
Speaker 1: I was bullied. It's the neighborhood you can go. You
25:27
Speaker 1: could go through dark times and get over it and
25:30
Speaker 1: still be with a smile and still show love, you know.
25:34
Speaker 1: And that's hopefully now we know when you're coming back
25:36
Speaker 1: up here to talk about the we're really gonna talk
25:38
Speaker 1: about the book. But the book, because we want to
25:40
Speaker 1: read the book. Is this. I'm talking so much real
25:42
Speaker 1: shit that it leads me to the book. There's nothing
25:45
Speaker 1: I could do to you. There's never been a hip
25:46
Speaker 1: hop book like this in the history of mankind. I'm
25:49
Speaker 1: not selling it. You're You're You're by far the greatest
25:53
Speaker 1: storyteller that hip hop has ever seen. We've said that
25:55
Speaker 1: for years, at least top three. I call you Nori
25:58
Speaker 1: nerv Gott. He tell the best stories or a nerve.
26:00
Speaker 1: I agree with you. Now have you an erve for spoke?
26:03
Speaker 1: Since no I've seen Chris Scotty last night. I love him.
26:06
Speaker 1: He was there when my daughter was born. I love
26:08
Speaker 1: erv Gotti, you know um. I love his whole entire family,
26:14
Speaker 1: his mother. You know what I'm saying. One time I
26:16
Speaker 1: canceled the show to go to his mother's birthday party
26:18
Speaker 1: from la. I love that whole family. I love how
26:21
Speaker 1: the y'all, his nieces and nephews. Now my problem was like,
26:27
Speaker 1: if I'm sising you, if you're my sis, if you're
26:31
Speaker 1: ring me may, you're shanty, you're my sis, You're in
26:34
Speaker 1: the tina when I see you, Sis, I love you, Sis.
26:38
Speaker 1: No matter how much I love a person, I cannot
26:42
Speaker 1: sit there and watch this man disrespect my sister that
26:47
Speaker 1: I called my sister every day. I feel like a
26:50
Speaker 1: sucker if I don't address it. Now, I've been so
26:54
Speaker 1: used to ig and cameras being in my face. Maybe
26:57
Speaker 1: was that the right platform, or maybe it was a
26:59
Speaker 1: private court. Don't know, it's done already, you know what
27:02
Speaker 1: I'm saying. But Earth, God's correct. I'm not his friend.
27:07
Speaker 1: I love him, he's my brother. He helped me at
27:10
Speaker 1: a time when nobody wanted to help me. Now I'll
27:12
Speaker 1: never forget that, you know what I'm saying. So it's
27:14
Speaker 1: not I don't want to cause harm to him, have
27:17
Speaker 1: people look at him a different way. But I was
27:19
Speaker 1: watching it and it just made me feel crazy, like
27:22
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, And I was just like, yo,
27:24
Speaker 1: you know what, you know? I addressed it and you
27:27
Speaker 1: know I moved on. You know what I'm saying. I
27:29
Speaker 1: love Earth. You know what I'm saying. He did a
27:31
Speaker 1: lot for me and my family. So I'm never gonna
27:34
Speaker 1: be one of those guys to see a shanty after
27:38
Speaker 1: that and do things with her, knowing that you didn't
27:41
Speaker 1: defend and say what you thought was right. We're not
27:43
Speaker 1: even saying that. I'm trying to tell you she's my sister.
27:47
Speaker 1: And so what you gotta understand is, girls I called
27:49
Speaker 1: my sister, they feel so protected because I don't give
27:55
Speaker 1: you per vibes. I never gave you a purse. I'm
27:59
Speaker 1: not that type. But he gonna have fun. You know,
28:04
Speaker 1: people think Fat Joe got the Terror squad. I'm really
28:07
Speaker 1: protected by women because I respect them so much, and
28:12
Speaker 1: they stand you see your boys. Still, She'll stand right
28:14
Speaker 1: in front of me. They'll stand right in front me,
28:17
Speaker 1: create a wall right in front of me. Why because
28:20
Speaker 1: I never disrespect my sisters. I love them all. I
28:24
Speaker 1: showed him the same love. So that was all about
28:27
Speaker 1: me me. You know. So when Chris, Chris, one of
28:30
Speaker 1: my best friends on Earth, when he approached me, I say, yo, bro,
28:33
Speaker 1: that's my sister. Bro. Yeah, but you know they're real
28:36
Speaker 1: type family. So Earth feels a way, Chris feels a
28:40
Speaker 1: same way. That's how they get down. That's the family
28:43
Speaker 1: that you don't want to be in the projects with
28:44
Speaker 1: them because you gotta fight all seven brothers. You beat one,
28:47
Speaker 1: you gotta fight the other one, the other one. You
28:50
Speaker 1: know they like this then you but you know I've
28:53
Speaker 1: seen them two times since then yesterday I've seen me
28:56
Speaker 1: had a bigger smile. Love you brother, you know. So
28:59
Speaker 1: this is it's gonna time, is gonna do what he's
29:02
Speaker 1: gotta do. But me personally, I want everybody to know
29:04
Speaker 1: because you know what happens in hip hop. I'm too
29:07
Speaker 1: old now, I'm not a young kids. You can't scam
29:11
Speaker 1: me and joke. So what happens is when I say that,
29:15
Speaker 1: all the earth hated start calling, and boy, I didn't
29:18
Speaker 1: know it was that many you know rappers and a go.
29:21
Speaker 1: I'm like, no, no, no, no, I love him. He's
29:25
Speaker 1: my brother. Like no, no, no, no, I don't want that.
29:28
Speaker 1: Ain't what we're doing. This ain't uh smack DVD and
29:32
Speaker 1: all this, ain't that time sub zero. This is Earth's
29:35
Speaker 1: my brother. I love him. You know what I'm saying
29:37
Speaker 1: That's how I feel about the the N word conversation.
29:40
Speaker 1: It feels like every few years is uh, fat Joe
29:43
Speaker 1: can't use the N word, and I'm like, well, fat Joe.
29:46
Speaker 1: They've been saying that since the nineties, Like why don't
29:48
Speaker 1: in the book not fuck the nineties. I was born
29:54
Speaker 1: first of all, my mother. First of all. My projects
29:56
Speaker 1: is ninety percent. I'll give you eighty percent black. Still
30:01
Speaker 1: my grandmother's projects is ninety nine point nine black. Be clear.
30:06
Speaker 1: So I'm Spanish. I knew I was Latino, but the
30:09
Speaker 1: whole time I thought I was black. Anyway, So my
30:12
Speaker 1: mom's lived there forty years before I was born in
30:16
Speaker 1: this project, and I'm born blonde hair, green eyes. She
30:20
Speaker 1: brings me shit crazy, right, she brings me there. The
30:24
Speaker 1: first thing they go, look oh look at this little
30:26
Speaker 1: nigga Joe. He got green eyes. The minute I'm walking
30:30
Speaker 1: the guys from the building, it's like, yo, look at
30:32
Speaker 1: that little nigga Joe, a little fat Joe with just
30:34
Speaker 1: so all. I knew my whole life before even the
30:37
Speaker 1: elementary then high school, did junior high just and so
30:41
Speaker 1: it's a lot of all woke society or something going
30:44
Speaker 1: on these days, and Twitter and all that that. Um,
30:47
Speaker 1: I guess they don't understand where I come from, where
30:50
Speaker 1: I was born, or how I was raised, or how
30:53
Speaker 1: I lived my whole entire life. Now we know that
30:56
Speaker 1: we use it as love, but we know that the record,
31:01
Speaker 1: the record states that this is a negative word that
31:03
Speaker 1: I wish we never used it saying. You know, And
31:07
Speaker 1: I try my best to try to like, but you know,
31:10
Speaker 1: Fat Joe knows his green eyes. I've been saying this
31:13
Speaker 1: thing in my DNA. It's hard, bro, I really, seriously,
31:17
Speaker 1: I've been trying to stop, you know what I'm saying,
31:20
Speaker 1: but I've been saying this since I was born. Yeah,
31:24
Speaker 1: so I tried the greatest level I can to try
31:28
Speaker 1: to understand. If I'm offending anybody, that's cool, But I
31:30
Speaker 1: want them to know. No one's gonna pressure Fat Joe
31:34
Speaker 1: into feeling or saying anything that he loves or he
31:38
Speaker 1: believes in. No one's ever gonna do that. You get
31:41
Speaker 1: one life, and ain't nobody gonna try to tell me
31:43
Speaker 1: what to say, tell me what to do, tell me
31:46
Speaker 1: what the thing I mean? Do I look like a racist?
31:51
Speaker 1: Do I look like I mean being what's the N word?
31:54
Speaker 1: If somebody's really upset with me saying the N word.
31:56
Speaker 1: What are you saying? I'm a racist? Saying it as
31:59
Speaker 1: the conversation is always confusing to me because I thought
32:01
Speaker 1: that was I thought in New York that was the
32:03
Speaker 1: thing you don't say. I didn't know. I really have
32:07
Speaker 1: to stop using that word though, like we tried, maybe
32:10
Speaker 1: coming around my friends, but I really do try. You know,
32:14
Speaker 1: even if I gave me the biggest speech in the
32:17
Speaker 1: world about not using it, but two seconds later he
32:22
Speaker 1: said it three times like Spanish, we gotta watch it, Dad.
32:29
Speaker 1: You know it's not okay. Brother, He gave us a
32:31
Speaker 1: speech right two seconds later he said it three times.
32:35
Speaker 1: It's it. That's that's what it is. And if fat
32:41
Speaker 1: Joe Hallelujah safe fat Joe is able to get brain
32:45
Speaker 1: washed or you know, because your mind's a computer. I
32:50
Speaker 1: don't know if you know that. We've been stored for years,
32:53
Speaker 1: so it's so hard to erase the computer, right, and
32:57
Speaker 1: so um, it's like say fact Joe, never say it again.
33:01
Speaker 1: They're still saying it. You're gonna still say it, so
33:05
Speaker 1: I don't it don't end and stop with fat Joe.
33:09
Speaker 1: Women bitches too, that's you know now, it's the same.
33:13
Speaker 1: It's the same conundry. But I'm saying I'm watching the
33:15
Speaker 1: BT Awards and Treata said, I'm the baddest bitch saying
33:25
Speaker 1: who you calling it? That's why I try. That's the
33:27
Speaker 1: word I don't, right, So I've been but I tried
33:32
Speaker 1: so hard to uh not say it. You know, but
33:36
Speaker 1: what are you gonna say? When the girls say she
33:38
Speaker 1: says it, it's kind of a woman trying to take
33:41
Speaker 1: the power out of that word with each other. And
33:44
Speaker 1: so that's really what when every sensitive you need to
33:50
Speaker 1: judge a person by who their character truly is. Oh,
33:55
Speaker 1: you know who they really are, who they represent? You know,
33:59
Speaker 1: it's kind Joe. Let me let me, let me be
34:01
Speaker 1: clear this Fat Joe's for black and Latino people. And
34:06
Speaker 1: so when you go Big Punch's first song onboard, equam
34:10
Speaker 1: now is meaning black and Latino people. Fat Joe. When
34:13
Speaker 1: he gives out food in the community, he gives it
34:15
Speaker 1: to black and Latino people. When Fat Joe opens his
34:18
Speaker 1: school in his store, he has black and Latino kids there.
34:21
Speaker 1: When he opens anything, it's always for both equally. That's
34:26
Speaker 1: just who I am as a person, you know, that's
34:30
Speaker 1: just who I am. So you gotta judge a person
34:32
Speaker 1: by not by the hand word, by to this, by
34:35
Speaker 1: to that. I don't even know what these people. I
34:37
Speaker 1: really don't know. Like I don't think you guys understand.
34:41
Speaker 1: When farec conty you want the headline. When fire Can
34:44
Speaker 1: sees me, he says, peace black man. Right, it's what
34:48
Speaker 1: Fare contests, Peace black man. Peace to love it yo, peace,
34:53
Speaker 1: Minister Fare cancept this, so he addresses me. Reverend al
34:57
Speaker 1: Shockton sees me, says, peace, black man. What do you
35:01
Speaker 1: want me to? Joe and my cool? Some places I'm cool.
35:04
Speaker 1: You know, I've been to mutt my whole career. I've
35:07
Speaker 1: been too black for some Spanish people and been too
35:10
Speaker 1: Spanish to some black people. I've been a mutt my
35:13
Speaker 1: whole career. I've been a mutt. You know what I'm saying.
35:16
Speaker 1: It's it's the weirdest thing. But you know, I've been
35:18
Speaker 1: able to navigate through it, you know what I'm saying,
35:21
Speaker 1: And I'm happy with you know who I am as
35:23
Speaker 1: a person. Entertainment that's crazy, And don't you think that's amazing?
35:29
Speaker 1: Don't you think sometimes you find yourself in arguments with
35:31
Speaker 1: kids that just might not know any better, Like even
35:34
Speaker 1: when they say things like like when you say show
35:37
Speaker 1: you said about and then like, yo, you got it?
35:40
Speaker 1: You tell me about Latinos and hip hop? Know when
35:43
Speaker 1: you please tell me about you've been at the beginning?
35:46
Speaker 1: Black America got your old show? Can you please tell
35:50
Speaker 1: me they've been that since the beginning? God? Damn? Like
35:53
Speaker 1: right so much? I didn't say my wife is like
35:58
Speaker 1: the hip hop police. A girl's called caller up Natina too?
36:02
Speaker 1: What the fuck he talking about Latinos? This Latina? I
36:06
Speaker 1: gotta sit them down. Maybe they don't know. You know,
36:10
Speaker 1: it's a fact what I'm saying, like a fact though
36:14
Speaker 1: this is a billion percent. Hip hop's fifty years old. Okay,
36:18
Speaker 1: it's turning fifty years old. It was black and Latino.
36:21
Speaker 1: What the hell on earth you want me to tell you?
36:24
Speaker 1: I didn't say nothing. Is this a dia pepsi? I said,
36:29
Speaker 1: you know that, Joe. This is now I'm saying, this
36:36
Speaker 1: is no controversy. This is like, Yo, do you take
36:39
Speaker 1: cocade in the morning? Like yeah, yeah, you know black
36:42
Speaker 1: that all of a sudden. But what happens is that
36:44
Speaker 1: gotta you gotta understand and I have an obligation being
36:50
Speaker 1: a true culture, pop culture. Not only that, we always
36:55
Speaker 1: been multi racial, you know, and just hey one there
37:00
Speaker 1: was Asians, it was white people. There there was this
37:03
Speaker 1: and they all. We always taught it. You Blondie did
37:05
Speaker 1: one of the first rappers. We was always taught hip
37:09
Speaker 1: hop culture is almost like a religion, no matter where
37:11
Speaker 1: are you from, no matter why. If you love this thing,
37:14
Speaker 1: if you went there breakdancing, you love this thing. You
37:17
Speaker 1: the culture. So now a lot of these people that
37:20
Speaker 1: are on Twitter and stuff like that, no disrespect because
37:25
Speaker 1: I don't like the alien alienate nobody, but they're from
37:28
Speaker 1: different places that ain't New York and the Bronx where
37:32
Speaker 1: it was created. There was no social media, there was nothing.
37:35
Speaker 1: The first hip hop photographer is Joe Conzo, a Puerto
37:39
Speaker 1: Rican brother who took We would not have any documentary.
37:42
Speaker 1: You ever seen Supreme Team, You would not have no
37:45
Speaker 1: footage if it wasn't for Joe Conzo. You have to know,
37:48
Speaker 1: he's the first hip photographer, right, and so we have
37:53
Speaker 1: these beautiful images of day one. When you look at
37:56
Speaker 1: the pictures, it's black and Latino. I'm not making this up.
38:00
Speaker 1: This is what it is, right, But it just seems
38:02
Speaker 1: like you got people who are now I get it.
38:05
Speaker 1: Terrible things, terrible things, not even terrible things, phenomenal or tractional.
38:12
Speaker 1: There is no way to explain I'm black, bro, that
38:15
Speaker 1: Joe is black. I hate slavery, I hate oppression, I
38:20
Speaker 1: hate systemic racism. If this is what you gotta ask yourself, everybody,
38:24
Speaker 1: pro whatever, if you see a black woman getting harm
38:27
Speaker 1: on the corner, are you willing to die for? Because
38:29
Speaker 1: I am. I know I am. Read the book, I
38:35
Speaker 1: know I am. I'm a frontliner. I'm not a talker
38:38
Speaker 1: on Twitter. I'm about that life, right. So I turned
38:42
Speaker 1: around and I go like this, I say like this,
38:44
Speaker 1: so you know I'm I get it. We should under
38:48
Speaker 1: understand the pain, what happened. Don't take it out on me,
38:52
Speaker 1: Like I don't got shit to do with this. I
38:54
Speaker 1: was born in the projects, unwelfare, paying for ship with coupons,
39:01
Speaker 1: bummy schools, terrible health system this, you know. I had
39:06
Speaker 1: diabetes since I was twelve years old, and when I
39:10
Speaker 1: got old, they got health couracs. I lost weight. The
39:13
Speaker 1: doctor told me, you don't gotta take medicine. The more
39:15
Speaker 1: I'm like, what do you mean? No? You got I
39:18
Speaker 1: was fighting with my doctor in the hood. They don't
39:21
Speaker 1: teach you that you can lose weight and get rid
39:23
Speaker 1: of diabetes. I'm thinking, oh, I got this ship for life. No,
39:29
Speaker 1: like I'm under the same as oppressure. I got my
39:32
Speaker 1: ass whoop ten million fucking times in the projects by police?
39:39
Speaker 1: My ass? What nobody been. Have you ever been dumped
39:44
Speaker 1: in the dumpster upside down head first by the police?
39:49
Speaker 1: Will I have you know? You talk about ass whipping,
39:53
Speaker 1: you talk about police brutality. Whoa we gonna make a
39:58
Speaker 1: book on that? Like you know my ass? What gods
40:01
Speaker 1: was getting away with anything they wanted in the world.
40:03
Speaker 1: It was no camera phone, So the youth, if you're listening,
40:08
Speaker 1: there were no cell phones at one time, there were
40:10
Speaker 1: no camera phones. There was nothing. You just got your
40:13
Speaker 1: ass what every day? Right? And if you was in
40:17
Speaker 1: trouble like me, because I think I'm I'm guilty. I
40:20
Speaker 1: should have got twenty five percent of the ass weapons
40:22
Speaker 1: I should have gotten. I'm gonna be honest with you,
40:25
Speaker 1: maybe even thirty right, but the type of abuse, so
40:29
Speaker 1: you know you can't. That's why I was a blessing
40:31
Speaker 1: when the Rodney King tab happened, because people finally got
40:33
Speaker 1: to see it. They knew what was going on. Man,
40:36
Speaker 1: it's so it's like, you know, you know, it's like,
40:41
Speaker 1: it's terrible what has happened to black and Latino people.
40:45
Speaker 1: And so when you go to the what you call that,
40:49
Speaker 1: some are soul s Porto Ricans in there. When you
40:52
Speaker 1: go to the movie or the Chicago guy that got murdered,
40:56
Speaker 1: the black panther, Oh Fred Hampton, um black Jesus's Puerto
41:02
Speaker 1: Ricans in the um. You know, it's Puerto Ricans in
41:05
Speaker 1: that absolute you know, they was with the Puerto Ricans.
41:07
Speaker 1: When you come over here to all the black panthers
41:10
Speaker 1: in the young, it was Puerto Ricans in there. So
41:12
Speaker 1: and that whole civil rights we've never been. Look, that's
41:16
Speaker 1: why the minister always says black, brown and indigenous people.
41:19
Speaker 1: The way they look correct, the way they look at
41:22
Speaker 1: this is we all the same until we realize that
41:26
Speaker 1: we're all the same. And this is what I was saying,
41:29
Speaker 1: in your in your in your thing. And so it's
41:31
Speaker 1: not disrestracting no way that some people beat us to
41:34
Speaker 1: the punch. But people want to why Jewish people get
41:40
Speaker 1: what they want, Well, you know why they get what
41:42
Speaker 1: they want is they all get together ten thousand deepness
41:46
Speaker 1: that we're voting for mister Washington, and mister Washington knows
41:51
Speaker 1: if he wants to be councilman, he got to take
41:54
Speaker 1: care of that community. Right. So there's a divided conquer
41:57
Speaker 1: between the Latinos and Blacks. To them, you ain't the same.
42:02
Speaker 1: Imagine we all voted the same representative. Black lives matter,
42:06
Speaker 1: Latino matter. Something went over here. We all together like this.
42:10
Speaker 1: The numbers is so strong that we will get whatever
42:13
Speaker 1: we want in our hoods, new schools, better hospitals, better
42:17
Speaker 1: assistance for our single parent mothers. But they let people
42:21
Speaker 1: separate them. You know, Fat Joe's a really he's a problem.
42:27
Speaker 1: Fat Joe been working on this his whole life, bringing
42:30
Speaker 1: Latinos and Blacks to think like this and bringing them together.
42:33
Speaker 1: That's why you know I'm hosting the BT Awards, Yes,
42:37
Speaker 1: and that is tonight at nine pm. Now, are you performing?
42:41
Speaker 1: I know you're coming out with the Loud Records. Definitely perform.

Speaker 1: much and hip hop looks so beautiful. The cipherst was incredible.
42:55
Speaker 1: They got a battle of smack that was crazy, performances

Speaker 1: are sick. I don't want to mess everything up. You
43:04
Speaker 1: know I'm a producer. Hit yourself. You're proud of you.
43:07
Speaker 1: Man not went to this shot. See, y'all gotta understand, man,
43:14
Speaker 1: no one man can have it all. The only way
43:19
Speaker 1: to be strong is all your brother's assistants gotta win.
43:22
Speaker 1: I don't know what these people don't understand. If and
43:26
Speaker 1: be you fall in trouble, say you do, God forbid, right,
43:29
Speaker 1: you can pick up the call and be like yo,
43:31

Speaker 1: we love you like that. Though you know you got
43:40
Speaker 1: twelve of them, but two of them are gonna be out,
43:43
Speaker 1: so I left anyway. Right, we have to be strong,
43:49
Speaker 1: whether our friends own a barbershop, own a mechanic shop,
43:52
Speaker 1: owner this. It's no such thing as one person winning
43:56
Speaker 1: you have. If everybody wins, then you can help each other.
44:01
Speaker 1: That's what you have to understand. So fat Joe, I
44:04
Speaker 1: love that young artists are looking good. I love that
44:08
Speaker 1: all my people are winning. That Norri's winning. You know
44:11

Speaker 1: Wallow was. I didn't know for ye I know Guilly.

44:33
Speaker 1: what I said. When you see y'all getting embraced on

Speaker 1: that level, it's like damn Nori was up here thirteen
44:39
Speaker 1: years ago. It was Norris shot somebody that was the
44:42
Speaker 1: hast So what happens is that, you know, people grow,
44:48
