In the five years since his Tiny Desk (home) concert, Joe Cartagena has continued to reinvent himself, leaning into his polarizing takes and storytelling as an internet personality, writing a book and, more recently, co-hosting the popular Joe and Jada podcast with another Tiny Desk alum, Jadakiss. Fat Joe’s music has remained the driving force, with consistent album output and hit records.
For his Tiny Desk, the Bronx emcee flexes the benefits of loyalty and longevity, inviting a laundry list of guest appearances from Remy Ma, Stove God Cooks, Stevie Mackey, Dre (from the production duo Cool & Dre) and Jadakiss, in support of career-spanning set list and songs from his latest album, Organized Rhyme.
