Fat Joe has revealed the three rappers he looks to for inspiration when embarking on a new album.
During an Instagram Live session with Michael Rainey Jr. on Wednesday (October 2, 2024), legendary rapper Fat Joe revealed the three rappers he looks to for inspiration when working on a new album. In addition, he reveals his upcoming project’s title and release month.
“Whenever I make an album, I always put up a poster of Nas, a poster of JAY-Z and one of Eminem. And I be like, ‘Yo, I gotta be as good as them or even better. In my own mind. I could be delusional, but I do that. I shoot for the stars.” said Fat Joe.
Back in July, a reporter for TMZ caught up with the Terror Squad boss in Los Angeles to talk about his peers such as Nas, DJ Premiere, LL Cool J, Common and Pete Rock all releasing new projects in 2024. “Breaking news: Fat Joe be dropping an album in August, too, so put me in that list of pioneers and legends and icons,” he shared. While that release date is now pushed back, it appears as if the new project is finally coming. Check out the clip below.
