[@3GrImDaReApA666]

This is so beautiful. I wish this era was forever

[@kadiraydukureh7680]

Better than this wack era we in right now I would pay anything to have this back

@MrCdeliz2059 1987!!!! My favorite year in Hip Hop. Had a great summer that year. I was 18.

[@HybOj]

its like different world than what we have now, the interviewer, setting, things they talk about, ppl around... good old 90s, respect Joey Crack!

[@danieldevito6380]

The last great decade

[@ronaldjames7843]

Funny thing is when Pac was locked up, Fat Joe had his Puerto Rican homies look out for Pac & hold him down & that's a fact. Notice when Pac was going after almost all the New York rappers, he never had nothing bad to say about Joe. Pac respected Fat Joe even tho he was friends with Biggie. Joe a real ass one 💯

[@terry8046]

Yeah and Joe never spoke about it back then. I respect him for that

[@SantosSaysMedia]

That's a fact. Pac loved us and we loved him too...

[@RonaldJames-eo2hc]

​@@terry8046& most of these internet niggas saying he's capping lol 🤣 They really don't know Joe been out here long before they was even born & he was literally everywhere in the 90s

[@desalineredux435]

I give Joe mad props for being able to stay relevant for over 20 years. You know how many people have come and gone in that time period He's officially old stool .

[@allwightallwong5045]

Desaline Redux Facts my brother. He was giving back to his neighborhood something crazy at the time. I'm not from the BX but he seems to be still respected there despite Cuban Link's hatred towards him.

[@jackharlowgan5280]

...this is a fact!!! Still until THIS day! Listening to his audio book as we speak!

[@ronaldjames7843]

Joe a real one, I met him back in 96 at a show with Wu Tang & other rappers & I walked passed him by & said to him what's up crack, I'm a huge fan & he was real polite & he told me good looking & he gave me a handshake & a bounce & he kept on pushing & said peace my G. I met him again in 2019 while shopping somewhere in Miami & he took a really good close look to me & said to me, are you the dude I met from way back? I said ya man, & he shook my hand & told me be safe man, good seeing you & he wished me the best of life. He has a very good memory for recognizing my face from back in 96. He a cool one 💯

[@Real-Life-Beavies]

I was 14 at this time and this era of music was the best I miss it

Big ups! Dam that transition tho being more lyrical at that point in time glad I could catch that moment rite there

[@MentalStillness]

To everybody in the comment section you need to listen to Jealous One's Envy. It's a real classic. If he continued to make albums like that he would be in the Nas Jayz Pac Big conversation.

[@bxdale83]

I think this was filmed in early 96

[@bxdale83]

@Jalen X Blair ....Jealous One's Envy came out in Oct 95. You can see this was filmed in the winter meaning it was winter 95-96. Joe says at the end "96, 97 and beyond"

[@bxdale83]

@Jalen X Blair You do know that every winter day doesn't require a coat right? Speaking of that Joe mentioned the video of the Dogg Pound "kicking the buildings" and if you remember that NY NY video that was filmed late 95 winter cause Kurupt was rapping in the snow. I don't remember watching this ep of Rap City I definitely remember the Dogg Pound "NY NY" video coming out around Dec. 1995 so this interview like I said was filmed in 96 whether it was winter or spring

[@bxdale83]

@Jalen X Blair Lol you did a quick Google search but I'm telling you NY NY came out in the winter cause I remember. Just cause a single is released in April doesn't mean that they shoot and release a video the same time. Kurupt was in the snow in the video and Joe mentioned it so either way my post was right about when this interview was filmed

Fat Joe was the one of the only NY rapper's that went to war with the west coast. He got into a few incidents in Miami with some west coast people and in one incident he got jumped. Mr. Serv-On from No Limit records did an interview talking about Joe getting jumped and him and his people's held him down afterwards. Joe ain't no punk and he definitely held NY down while everyone was scared to speak up. That's why I always will have respect for him

[@MrPragmatism]

the media blew up the east/west beef into something it wasnt and talking about it like they did on this showed that. Also not sure if this was before or after this interview but 2pac got a bunch of east coast artists to fly out to deathrow studios to record the one nation album which was to show the dumbass media that there was no east and west beef and Fat Joe was one who was going to feature in that project although i dont know why it was him and not pun.

[@allwightallwong5045]
