Fat Joe has had a lengthy career in hip-hop. Yet, one doesn't get to stay in the game this long without weathering some storms. During a conversation with Elliott Wilson for TIDAL's CRWN interview series, Joey Crack recalls a time when his finances weren't in the best shape.

Fat Joe tells Wilson that the success of his fourth studio album, Jealous Ones Still Envy (J.O.S.E.), and its hit single "What's Luv?" saved his life. He also made so much money from this project that he assumed that he would never run out. As a result, the rapper spent a large portion of his cash splurging on his fellow Terror Squad members until one day the well went dry.
