Fat Joe speaks about Remy ma
Sep 1st
Even though Fat Joe and Remy Ma had a falling out around 2005,
he sat down with Vlad tv to show her some support…
he sat down with Vlad tv to show her some support…
here’s what he had to say:
“I ain’t understand why,” Joe said referring to Remy’s past disses toward him. “There 10 million people trying to get into the rap game and I gave this girl an opportunity. I put her on ‘Lean Back,’ the number one song in the country [in 2004] — I realized there was no one I could blame. A lot of people turn around and want to escape from the pressure, so you need to blame somebody…My son used to look up to her, she was like my sister — and that’s why it’s unforgiiveable. You know how some love is unconditional? This is unforgiveable. I wish her the best, she’s still the best girl rapper in the game. I’m sure she’ll come out and do her thing. But you know, it is what it is. I don’t wish [her sentence] on nobody. I don’t wish that on somebody who wants to kill me. I don’t want nobody to go to jail for three minutes. It’s slavery. It’s modern day slavery. It’s h*ll. Especially a girl like Remy Ma, I know the real Remy Ma, the little girl, the little sister, I knew her. It’s a sad thing, she’s got a kid, it’s just a sad thing.”

Making the allegations that the rapper’s label promotes violence and also failed to act after the shooting, Barnes-Joseph is filing a lawsuit against Universal Music Group.
“Universal hires and encourages rap artists to act violently and engage in anti-social behavior in order to sell CDs. Thus, part of the performer’s persona promoted by the company is to ‘keep it real’ and remain ‘gangsta,” stated lawyers Barnes-Joseph.
Opening oral arguments began earlier this week in New York Supreme Court.
Filing the suit back in 2008, she claimed that the company encouraged their artist’s criminal behavior by allowing Remy Ma to have violence in her music and continuing to hold her as an “employee” during the criminal investigation.
In response, the label has countered with a motion summary judgment to have the complaint dismissed, which was granted last April by Judge Betty Owen.
Lauren P. Raysor, the attorney for Barnes-Joseph, filed an Appellate Brief to appeal the decision and made the argument that her client’s case was not given due process as “the Court either disregarded or misunderstood the employment status of Remy Smith, aka “Remy Ma,” with Universal Music Group at the time of the shooting.”
The rapper is currently serving time in New York’s penal system with an 8 year sentence to face. There is an ongoing appeal in relation to her conviction which could find her being released earlier, otherwise she will be eligible for release in 2013.
