HipHopWired Featured Video Source: @MATHHOFFA / Youtube It’s no secret that Tekashi 6ix9ine remains one of the most hated men in Hip-Hop today and now Fat Joe has become the latest high profile rapper to air out the most famous snitch in Hip-Hop history.

Too Far: Fat Joe Get Clowned For Yeezy Moonboot Fit, Memes Flourish

HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: @donnellrawlings / Instagram Fat Joe took to Instagram to show off what he thought was a fire fit that featured him wearing those YEEZY NSTLD boots. However, Joe Crack didn’t get the sweeping praise he was surely looking for. Instead, the Bronx rapper opened the door to waves of slander over his audacity to act like those glorified moon boots from the YEEZY brand are flames. Yes, there are people who think so, but please reconsider that decision. Anyway, the fit itself wasn’t too bad; denim, a khaki jacket and a pink hoodie. “Waiting on the snow” was Joe’s caption for the pic he share on IG. But those YEEZY boots got all the attention for all the wrong reasons. Some trusty Timberlands these are not. Soon enough, the photo went viral, and the memes s...

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Kevin Mazur / Getty There are quite a few rappers who could have benefited from this proposed law. Per Rolling Stone, JAY-Z and many other giants in the music industry (no, this isn’t another Tidal announcement) are pushing for a proposed New York state law that will forbid prosecutors from using rap lyrics as “blueprints” to alleged crimes. HOV is teaming up with his frequent REFORM Alliance partner Meek Mill, Fat Joe, Kelly Rowland, Yo Gotti, Robin Thicke, and other big names as celebrities signatories in an open letter. They are pushing state lawmakers and Gov. Kathy Hochul to make the proposed “Rap on Trial” bill a state law. “This reform is urgently needed,” the new letter from JAY-Z’s lawyer Alex Spiro and co-written by University of Richmond Profes...

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: White Castle / White Castle Fat Joe has been in the rap game for decades now and while he’s proudly celebrated his plus sized figure since day one, no fast food joint has ever thought to collaborate with the Hip-Hop heavyweight throughout his career… until now. Yesterday the Don Cartegena took to his social media to announce that he and White Castle were entering a partnership to kick off 2022 and label the month of January, “Joenuary” and have White Castle serve up some exclusive Fat Joe themed menu items for the first month of the new year.

Fat Joe Describes The First Time He Met Allen “Bubba Chuck” Iverson

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: G Fiume / Getty There are three things in life guaranteed, death, taxes, and Fat Joe having a dope story to tell. The Bronx rapper linked up with retired NBA veteran, now successful cannabis entrepreneur Al Harrington to talk about the one and only Allen Iverson. Despite suffering an L during his VERZUZ with Ja Rule, Fat Joe has seen his price go up following his masterful recap of The LOX and Dipset VERZUZ that put storytelling skills on full display. It should come as no surprise that the Hip-Hop historian had a story to tell about Iverson, who recently became the latest NBA player to throw his fitted hat in the legal cannabis game with a collaboration with Harrington’s VIOLA brand. In the roughly seven-minute video titled “The Legend of Chuck,” Joe and...

Over the last couple of months the conversation behind whether or not Joe finessed Pun have arose via the Drink Champs podcast.

Lil Mo Says Fat Joe’s “Dusty B**ches” Verzuz Comment Was “Vile,” “Disrespectful” & “Triggering”

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Johnny Nunez / Getty Tuesday’s (Sep.14) Verzuz showdown between Fat Joe and Ja Rule wasn’t without some controversy. As of late, we can’t get one Verzuz without the participants doing something very questionable. No, Fat Joe and Ja Rule didn’t make the egregious mistake of calling an accused rapist who literally fled to another country to avoid facing his accused crimes or playing their songs that featured R. Kelly. Instead, the banter between the two artists went a bit too far. During the Verzuz that saw Ja Rule rap-sing his way to victory, Fat Joe, for whatever reason he insulted Rule’s special guests Lil Mo and Vita, saying the Murder Inc. rapper found them in the “crack house” and referred to them as “dusty b**ches.” Lil Mo understandably took offense...
