Back to his roots welcome back Joey Crack....
Fat Joe had been missing for years in the music industry. You may have seen him, but as far as quality albums he was nowhere to be found. Considering his hottest albums were 1998's Don Cartagena ( which they said was written by the late GREAT BIG DOG PUNISHER) and then he found PUNS rhyme book for 2001's J.O.S.E. After that he hit us with half done single sprinkled albums, FOR 10 YEARS!!!!! In the process also making us think he left that New York Gritty rhyme scene, for the scenic, plush weather and life of MIAMI.Well he did... But now the only rapper to still get the Suge Knight effect, comes back to his roots. With great detail to the music/production side, and a new found inspiration ( or ghostwriter) for lyrics, Joey Crack has finally satisfied HIS fan base as well as his non believers and nay sayers. Shit is real for that 90s hiphop with this one. I knew you had it in you Joe, dont stray again, ever. Pun would be proud, but still looking for his loot.[MAC03]!!!! 4.5/5 Welcome to th DARKSIDE!!!!

I had a chance to sit down and listen to the Cook Coke Crack album and i must admit I'm impressed. His last few albums have basically been singles (as mentioned by Mak). He migrated south (not hating) and he seemed to be in survival mode where he would do what was hot with who was hot and that put me off. Back to his roots wit hard rhymes and phat beats which is a must for Joey as he comes from the DITC crew and we all now how they roll.
