Biography

Joe Cartagena released his debut album Represent in 1993, under the name Fat Joe Da Gangsta. It featured the Hot Rap Singles chart-topper "Flow Joe" and established his reputation enough to justify a second album. Jealous One's Envy (1995) featured a guest spot from KRS One and further boosted his reputation, leading to a collaboration with LL Cool J. After signing a bigger deal with Atlantic… Read more in Amazon's Fat Joe Store

5.0 out of 5 stars First album I've purchased in years and well worth it., July 29, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Dark Side (Audio CD)
This is one of Joey's best, if not the best album he has ever done. If you are not a fan of Fat Joe you will be after listening to this album.

5.0 out of 5 stars 10th solo is one of his best - 4.5 stars, September 10, 2010
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Dark Side (Audio CD)
It's only been about 10 months since his last (and his worst) solo, and thank God he didn't wait too long. Of his 10 albums, this is probably his 2nd best one (I don't have his debut solo from 1993). To his catalog over the last 17 years, he has 3 I'd give 4.5 stars, 1 I'd say is borderline 4/4.5 stars, 3 I'd give 4 stars, and one is border 3/3.5 stars. This one is his strongest of his last 3 albums, 5 years and goes back to being hard/street oriented and not as much Pop/radi friendly songs as his last 3 albums. Of the 13 songs on here, 2 are classics, 2 are ok, the other 8 are good or real good songs. Guests are on 8 of the 13, rapping on 3 and doing the hook on 5 songs. Production is nice as well. Cool & Dre, Infamous, Scoop Deville, and Raw Uncut all do 2 songs, Scram Jones, Just Blaze, DJ Premier, Street Runner and Dope Boyz all do 1. A nice album to have and his best album in quite some time.

#1 - 9 (nice beat)
#2 - 8.5 (nice old school beat)
#3 - 9 (tight beat and storyline about the growth of crack)
#4 - 9 (f/ Clipse & Cam'ron -- good beat)
#5 - 8.5
#6 - 9 (f/ Young Jeezy -- nice beat)
#7 - 7 (f/ Trey Songz)
#8 - 7 (f/ Rico Love)
#9 - 10 (CLASSIC -- f/ R. Kelly -- great beat)
#10 - 10 (CLASSIC -- f/ TA & Too $hort -- great beat)
#11 - 8.5 (f/ Lil Wayne, who thankfully only does the hook)(
#12 - 9 (nice beat)
#13 - 8 (f/ Busta Rhymes on the hook)

5.0 out of 5 stars no need for review, December 6, 2011
This review is from: Dark Side (Audio CD)
it's the best rap album of 2010 hands down. Fat Joe is beast. No need to comment, just listen to this CD. 11 out of 10. Best Joe's album ever.
