Talk:Fat Joe/Archive 1

Neutrality
The article was definitely written/edited by a Fat Joe fan, despite the fact that it tries to maintain the illusion of neutrality. Please get someone without a racial bias, who understands Hip Hop culture and isn't a Fat Joe fan re-work this article.

i agree, the loser that wrote this is obviously the only fat joe fan. might as well delete the whole page, he ain't relevant no more —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.212.213.110 (talk) 16:39, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

FAT JOE IS A FAT FUCKER

problems with the summary
The initial part of this article (which should be a summary), is rather an introduction to the history of fat joe's career, only to be continued under 'HISTORY'. This needs to be changed. The history also skims over his first two albums, Jealous Ones Envy and Don Cartegena. Someone who is familiar with Joe should expand on these areas.

Also, Big Pun was not a member of D.I.T.C.

It is barely readable - the first sentence doesnt make any grammatical sense

"After Joe's rap protege, the similarly large, Puerto Rican, Bronx-based rapper, Big Pun, broke into the mainstream with his duet with the O'Jays, "I'm Not a Player" and its more popular remix, "Still Not a Player", featuring R&B singer Joe, Fat Joe began to follow suit."

Fall Back
Fall the freak back, fix yourself an account and fix this problem yourself. - 3:24 PM Tuesday, August 24, 2006

Trivia Section
I seriously doubt the material under "trivia" is authentic. It should be deleted, IMHO.

Don Cartagena certifed "bologna"???
Don't worry, I'll change it.

Flops
When it says flop does it mean it didnt sell well at all or does it mean something else since i never seen the RIAA give that to any other album

Error in the Coding
In the box just before his biography, it says "This fatass retard was born in The Bronx of Puerto Rican,Joe was popular in the New York-underground hip hop scene during the early and mid-1990s. He was also a member of the D.I.T.C. Crew ("Diggin' in the Crates"), along with well-respected rappers/producers Showbiz and A.G., Buckwild, O.C., Diamond D, Big L and Lord Finesse, and was featured on early records by various members." I can't seem to find it in the code. Someone needs to edit this by moving it to the correct place and removing "fatass retard" for obvious reasons.

is his death for real? because i cant find anything saying this though it might still be early.

Bad article
Biased, unfounded, too many opinions... delete it until a better one comes up. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 128.255.202.119 (talk) 17:57, 18 January 2007 (UTC).

His real name
His first real name is Joseph not Jose.Please change it somebody.

Beef with Eminem

Diss Track
there should be something about the lastest diss track 50 cent released towards fat joe and camro, the diss track is called "we on some shit", featuring tony yayo and lloyd banks
 * It is unsourced, poorly written and it states it is a rumor. It looks like an anon post that was not checked. I've gotten rid of it. Aiden Fisher 01:05, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I can't wait for the MTV music awards to come on, the one that 50 cent will be hosting beacaue no doubt something is going to go down there that we'll soon be able to add to this article. :D TeePee-20.7 (talk) 04:04, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
