Fat Joe, busy working on his next album, took the time out to about another rapper's project - Lil Wayne's Tha Carter IV.
“Lil Wayne, don’t bet against him right now!” said Joe. “Don’t bet against this guy ever right now. He calls me in the middle of the night: ‘Come to the studio.’ I get there, this nigga pressed play, and everything he played was super-duper phenomenal, number-one [smash]. He’s singing, ‘So I went to get her in my spaceship.’ Craziest thing you ever heard in your life.”
Joey Crack went on to say that while the Jay-Z comparisons may have been fine, Lil Wayne is soon to head into a cla** of his own after the sequel to Tha Carter III, which has gone over two times platinum.
“They compared him a lot to Jay-Z, and you could see where he was influenced,” elaborated Joe. “But after this next album — I’m not saying he’s the best rapper of all time, [but] you can’t compare him to any rapper in the world. Because no rapper has done what he’s about to do. That’s crazy! He’s a rock star, man. Hit mania!”
Fat Joe's next album, Nino "Dubs" DeLuca, like Tha Carter IV, has no set release date. Joe's album will feature Akon, Ron Brownz and Infamous.
