Fat Joe Returns to Music After 15 Years

Fat Joe has come out of retirement to release his first solo album in 15 years, titled 'The World Changed on Me,' motivated primarily by Killer Mike's recent Grammy wins. In an interview, Joe revealed that a significant phone call with Eminem also played a role in his decision, with Eminem urging him to continue making music, stating that he is 'one of us.' Joe expressed a strong desire to win a Grammy, which he has never achieved, and noted that the success of Killer Mike inspired him to believe that it's possible. The new album features a mix of collaborations with artists like Babyface and Ty Dolla $ign, while Joe emphasizes that he has maintained his authentic style throughout his career. He aims to showcase his growth as an artist while staying true to his roots in gangsta hip-hop. Additionally, Joe has ventured into television with his show 'Fat Joe Talks,' expanding his influence beyond music.
