    no one who understands music or has listened to cole would classify him as a new york rapper. he shouts out fayeteville constantly.

    by your same logic, how the f--- is tupac a new york rapper?

    Nothing wrong with being honest. People can be combative assholes on here. I learned hip-hop through forums.

    big or ghostface are both probably better but fat joe is up there with both terrorsquad albums and his early solo albums.

    Fat Joe does got a wide variety of albums, his best album is J.O.S.E. but Don Cartegena is also a classic.
