Fat Joe says both Blacks & Latinos invented Hip-Hop

Published August 30, 2022 by

Fat Joe gets slammed for his comments

New York rapper Fat Joe hopped on Instagram on August 28 to scorn his haters while addressing a controversial topic that both Blacks & Latinos started the Hip-Hop culture.

“I tell you I never really fuck with Twitter, but I go on there to see they always hating on me and shit,” he said. “Lately, they’ve been talking about, ‘Latinos wasn’t in rap.’ These guys are fucking delusional. We’re from the Bronx, New York. Shit happens. This is where Hip Hop started. It’s Latino and Black, half and half.

He added, “But they going at me ‘cause I’m like the only Spanish dude with a big voice. Like, ‘Fuck that. Latinos wasn’t there. You was invited. You are a specimen.’ I don’t know what the fuck is up with these people that don’t know their facts.”

Joe has been dragged on social media for his comments. Peep some tweets about Joe’s rant below.

DJ Khaled is arguably the biggest culture vulture in hip hop & we have Fat Joe (another culture vulture) to "thank" for that.

I’m not here to sh*t on Fat Joe or tear down his legacy. But his rhetoric needs to be addressed and checked. If he avoids this conversation he will be destroying his own legacy. I’m also more surprised at the guys around him that aren’t saying anything. Silence means complicit.
