Fat Joe remembers Big L involving him in a disagreement with Mase
Fat Joe recently sat for an interview with Mike Tyson’s Hotboxin’ podcast where he recalled an incident at New York venue The Tunnel that saw the late Big L hurt his friendship with Mase.
“One time I got set up. Rest in peace Big L, [he] comes up to me in The Tunnel and he’s like ‘Yo, Crack, come bring your n-ggas, I got some beef,” Joe recounted. “So we come — Big L’s our brother, you know Diggin’ in the Crates — and when I come up, it’s fucking Ma$e. He’s arguing with Ma$e, they from the same block!
“I’m like, ‘I was hanging out with Ma$e the night before at Puffy’s studio!’ Ma$e was looking at me like I was the greatest snake ever lived. He’s like, ‘For real?’ I’m sitting there and, you know, L is my crew so L was like, ‘We will fuck you up right now, we don’t give a fuck, it’s whatever.”
Joe went on to remember L asking him, “Right, Joe?” Before Joe nodded his head. “I don’t think Ma$e ever trusted me again in my life after that,” he added. “That shit was foul, man.”
