Salute for this one BX run it up!!!✊🏿
Because Puerto ricans are from a country made of 3 races...black, Spanish, and native. The original "puerto ricans" were natives tho...the Taino. So yeah...that's probably why...I'm native and I get mistaken for a Puerto Rican sometimes...lots of black Ricans tho! Shout out to my Puerto Rican's! ❤
I still got fat Joe's first album I used to play it in the car junior year I had a permit going to high school damn those were the days the best ERA 80s and 90s
glad to know Charlie Rock believed in Jesus Christ before he died coz he would of never made it into the Kingdom of Heaven without Jesus Christ as his lord and saviour' i know this coz Charlie Rock mentioned he was a follower of Christ.
@@henrypeguero9520and @farhanmajid6072 what does it matter that he was reading from Joe’s book or not. It’s still a great documentary and was put together well.
One of the greatest Hip~Hop/ Rap/Hood/Streets/Gangsta and from slum to rich then rich and fall and lastly a big change and come back story of someone who was a unwanted child/rasied as a black wolf/red headed step child, discriminated and assaulted because of his race and ethnicity. He almost gave up but did a 180* come about and dug within his will to never give up no matter what for the rest of his life. The narrator and production is unbelievablely spectacular and riveting. Just like a really great book or movie that you don't want to be distracted or disturbed because of it's effective description and details that draws and demands your total attention, focus and time as a must watch. Especially for it not being a big station, channel or media outlet, makes it even more official, gives it a more raw and realness to it because it's discriptively grittiness of someone's journey thru their realities in life.
Love your videos man this one was a banger, his story always fascinated me. Also love that you used your real voice for this one, keep up the good work
Cool documentary and very insightful. I really felt sad during that part about his so called best friend betraying him like that. That’s beyond messed up. I’d rather get beat down standing up for my friend than to do what he did. Very messed up.
If you didn't know about Fat Joe in 1993 then you were probably only a platinum hip hop artist listener. Those first two albums of his were awesome!!! ❤🎉
@@djmack1nyThe rapping wasn't that good but there were some good songs (Bad Bad Man, Watch The Sound, Envy come to mind off the bat). There was also the overall vibe and flavor of the albums. Plus the DITC elements. They are an important part of real hiphop history. Not top tier for important LPs, but 2nd or third. highest tier.
Joe's personal drops were never on the same level as the east coast heavyweights but his cultural significance from his music spilled over into the sneaker game/fashion/ball/anything and everything hiphop hood related. Bro was constantly the next new cultural collaboration... but often it was just with Joe's old & new self 😂
great documentary..the way it is put together is very well made..also the music and the style of the commentator, makes this documentary feel like a mafia documentary. this is very cool
Taking a moment here to appreciate the music to this joint. I really dug the angles. Especially that graffiti rock wild style type beat at the beginning was right on the money. But basically all of it was just RAW and moved with the narrative in a very dope way.
But we ignorantly kill each other in extraordinary numbers. If we could only use that negative non-stop energy to positive and unite as a community, we could not only change our condition but also the world.
Totally inspiring and motivated knowing about FAT JOE aka CRACK.Since growing up in the south Bronx is not easy.Satute fam for your glory and all achievements,continues blessings. TS 4 ever.🤟🖤
I used to see Joe in his shearling rocking truck jewelry in the clubs like Emerald City, Octagon, Palladium. Saw him outside Home Base and remember him chilling by the museum steps on 5th Ave in 1992 at the PR parade. That’s when I noticed the buck 50 he’s got on the back of his neck. Last time I seen him he was outside a recording studio on 33rd st in 2007.
I remember when Flow Joe dropped here in Detroit and on MTV... I was like who is this cat, and I been down ever since. Wish Pun & TS had more time and hopefully we'll see Chris Rios & Joe grind together one day.
My favorite track from his first album was called SUCCESS💪🏽 That joint official and that whole album too. Everytime I listen to it it brings me back in the good old warrior dayzzz. 🇵🇷🫡
I always remembered that the 50 cent beef started with the rob the industry song when he mentioned pun. Which was earlier then stated in the documentary.
Man I’m from Austin TX but moved up to PA for 3 yrs and visited New York then moved down to Shreveport, been here 20 yrs now.. I’ve always heard about fat Joe but more when I was up north.. but being from the south I’ve always wondered what fat Joe was like. I fuse he’s kinda the suge knight of New York? But I’m glad you made this one. Only 2 mins in but appreciate it
Amazing Documentary, I think if he had won that Grammy it would’ve shown him that his hard work payed off, Fat Joe is the epitome of Legend, he should have won just on merit alone, he helped so many people and he was a Genuine Dude, Joey Crack lean back 🙏
Nicely done. It is obvious, in putting together this piece you got a hold of some old actual photos and seems that the beginning of Fat Joe’s story was either witnessed or told to u by people close to Joe. I understand needing to protect sources, but how did u glean so much insight? If it was all done through research I must say Bravo! The only suggestion I have is that n the last chapter while doing a sum of the later parts of Joe’s life and career that are already public, I would refrain from commenting on people’s feelings and motivations. I am not picking on you. It is a trend I have noticed for years and in this piece there seemed to be very little. That is the reason I even say anything about it. You are obviously talented and refrained from making assumptions about others in previous chapters. It seems these days people take for granted assumptions on people’s intentions. I feel it is very important in storytelling, if one presents something as non fiction, then reporting the what when where and how is fair game. I must say u do that well. My problem with reporting, writing, storytelling or any other way information on other people is presented, the presenter all too often adds in their version of the why in the story and labels the work non fiction. Unless the presenter has direct knowledge or the subject has been quoted directly, these “why” comments should be qualified as opinion not told as they were fact. Ok I will step down off the “when I was young” soapbox and stop shaking my finger …lol. I also would like to say our society needs more of the advice which u wrap up your documentary. Hard work, loyalty and perseverance are essential to success. Again nicely done !
I don’t wanna hear anyone say Joey is not part of black culture. He literally got bullied and beat up everyday by black folks. Anyone else would hate us for that . But he embraced it shout out to CRACK ✊🏾
I always said fat joe was the most powerful in ny all the way back to the early days cause he had a whole ethnic group behind him and they ate the closest to the sicilians
Joe is the perfect example of somebody that grew into a man that values family and living life over the B.S that can swallow us up if we let it. Salute to Joey Crack!
Crack killed our community,He needs to get that shit out his name.. I'm sure he's moved on from that stupid shit ain't nothing cool about that shit homie it's all bad!!
NOTE: Four stories were left out during the editing process including the short Pistol Pete story. We’ll put those stories in another video here very soon and name it The Fat Joe Story deleted scenes. NOTE 2-Ryan is not the birth son of Lorena. Thank you 💜
How do you leave out the Pistol Pete story shame on you
Looking foward 🦦
Definitely need to make that!!
Can't wait!!!!!
Look forward to that!!
This documentary was unexpected and dope af. Thank you.
That background theme is so iconic. Please never change it doesn’t feel right. Great great vid either way
I thought it was annoying
Damn i was locked down with the bro angel good brother he use too always try and get me on the phone with joe so i can spit them bars but i was like nah lol the last time i seen bro was on Rikers island 2011 he seen me and gave me some chips and a apple "like son i know you hungry waiting in that cell"😆 Spent a lot of time with bro up north on the yard just talking about life real cool and humble brother a lot of people didn't know that was fat joe brother until they hear his last name on mail call or something cause he didn't broadcast for clout...

Very good Documentary. Fat Joe is the epitome of the Bronx spirit. Shout out to Fat Joe for repping the Bronx hard body.
First heard fat Joe in the 90s he was on rap city in the 90s. So to hear this back story is great hip hop history , legend.
The power of a good steak 🥩…… This is a great documentary on Fat Joes life. You did a great job putting this together. Please do more.
Blacks 🤝Puerto Ricans we are alike in so many ways.✊🏿✊🏽
You puerto rican folk ARE black
Always had love for Puerto Rican boxers lol #Tito #Cotto
Pero hablo claro
we are not the same
Especialmente en 90's
Te lo hacen saber
Because Puerto ricans are from a country made of 3 races...black, Spanish, and native. The original "puerto ricans" were natives tho...the Taino. So yeah...that's probably why...I'm native and I get mistaken for a Puerto Rican sometimes...lots of black Ricans tho! Shout out to my Puerto Rican's! ❤
Yes, very true I can agree with that
I've always wanted to see a documentary about this guys life, thank for this
I didn't know Fat Joe had such a tough life growing up...he's the real been doing hardcore gangster rap from Day One representing his real life
How could you not? That's the South Bronx 😮
he a pillar of the culture 💯
Forest projects was crazzyy still is
I still got fat Joe's first album I used to play it in the car junior year I had a permit going to high school damn those were the days the best ERA 80s and 90s
Exceptional, thank you very much. Salute to Drugstore Films and salute to Fat Joe a living legend indeed. ✊
Rest in Paradise Charlie Rock.
glad to know Charlie Rock believed in Jesus Christ before he died coz he would of never made it into the Kingdom of Heaven without Jesus Christ as his lord and saviour' i know this coz Charlie Rock mentioned he was a follower of Christ.
Good documentary brother, I intended on just watching the first 5 minutes but got pulled in for the whole ride.👍

No question Joe is a living Legend!! Love the story!! He was about that life.
It's too bad for his health that he was so fat.. maybe he should've lost some weight?
Little Joseph😂😂 lol😅
Finally Joey crack got his just dues much respect for putting this together
I admire how much you dig deep when writing your scripts. Great work

This documentary was awesome! Definitely a living legend and deserves his flowers
I can’t believe Joe wasted a whole turkey 😂😂
He went got a steak instead 🤣🤣
Hes been thinking about that steak for years...
🤣🤣🤣
This is a great American story.
And one of a man that rose from the Ashes and continues to reinvent himself. . Way to go Crack
Especially since you have no social healthcare in place
Love your videos man this one was a banger, his story always fascinated me. Also love that you used your real voice for this one, keep up the good work
Amazing documentary. Great story telling which fills in the details of the life of one Hip-Hop’s greatest artist. Joey Crack.
Great job! There’s stories mixed in from his autobiography plus more that aren’t in the book. Excellent work bro! Keep it up 💪🏽
This is very well done, and full of details. Amazing work brother, keep it up, your passion and hard work shows through your content
Cool documentary and very insightful.
I really felt sad during that part about his so called best friend betraying him like that. That’s beyond messed up. I’d rather get beat down standing up for my friend than to do what he did. Very messed up.

Thorough Doc, definitely entertaining. Fat Joe a legend for real. Keep at it

Good to hear 😅
Joe is not very talented, his flow got sharp when pun started writing... Geddy wrote a lot on his first 2 albums... Joe is trash
This was a great documentary. Very informative. You did a great job putting this video together.
This was a great watch, well put together. Looking fwd to more of your content 💯
Love this channel, I’m subscribed now and can’t wait to watch all video
great documentary..the way it is put together is very well made..also the music and the style of the commentator, makes this documentary feel like a mafia documentary.
this is very cool
Appreciate the man while he still here with us, we love Joe Crack
This is facts I'm born and raised in the South Bronx and I seen all this, on God 💯💯💯

This dude is an absolute beast on making docs way better then 90% of dudes on the net legit keep this structure you cracked the matrix w this one
Black n Puerto Ricans been having love for each other. We stay in the same ghettos. ❤❤ much luv and respect to all my PR brothers.
We love yall too
Real talk. I got boriqua blood fam in the Bronx.
