Fat Joe reacts to getting clowned for his dressing sense.
Earlier this month, Fat Joe was trolled for his alleged painted beard, and now the rapper again making the headlines for his outfit, especially the new Yeezy boots. The 51-year-old shared his latest pictures where he’s wearing a pink hoodie, blue denim, and matching beige jacket & Kanye West designed Yeezy boots. While he received compliments from Remy Ma, DJ Khaled, Bow Wow, fans clowned him with meme treatment.

The South Bronx rapper acknowledged all the memes on him by sharing them on his social media, and now he snaps back at all the critics for his dressing sense. “What the f**k do y’all mean by, ‘Dress your age?’… Should I wear a golf shirt?” he said in the latest IG live stream with journalist Brian “B.Dot” Miller. “I don’t know if you know this, I’ve been so fly that it’s, like, working against me now. I’m getting backlash for being so fly… I wanna know why I can’t be fresh. Those Yeezy boots are sold out.”
“People make mistakes,” Miller said while suggesting that the boots look a little too bloated. “It’s OK.”
“No, I don’t a mistake, that sh*t fly,” Joe responds. “And let me tell you something, I’m supporting Black-owned businesses when I throw on some Kanyes.” “That’s a fly boot,” he continues. “B.Dot, you might be trapped in that era … I’ve seen some legendary rappers pull up on me in the 2000s… in ’20 ’21, ’22, looking like ’94, ’96. I don’t know if they want you to remember them by their outfits, [but] my whole life I said I’m not gonna be that rapper. I’m not gonna be played out. I refuse… I love the boot I wore. I’m not taking it back.”
While DJ Clue enquired as to why Joe wasn’t wearing Timbs and instead rocked the boots, while Jazze Pha quipped about yesterday’s boots not being today’s boots, others like Remy Ma and Tony Sunshine praised Joe. “Why you doing em like that!” Sunshine exclaimed while Remy proclaimed the fit as simply fire.
Joe, Khaled, and Jadakiss were gifted a pair of Louis Vuitton Air Force 1s as part of Nike’s collaboration with the famed fashion house and the late Virgil Abloh, and the clowning on Instagram was in stark contrast to how they were received when they were gifted a pair of Louis Vuitton Air Force 1s as part of Nike’s collaboration with the famed fashion house and the late Virgil Abloh.
Joe understood why others were making fun of his winter outfit and shared a few of the memes on Instagram, including himself standing with a lightsaber, Affion Crockett, a Wookie, Mad Max, and others.
“Nah y’all gotta relax,” he laughed.
