#FatJoe #FBA #AllHipHopTV In this video, Jonny Fastlane discusses recent comments made by Fat Joe regarding Foundational Black Americans (FBA), a term that refers to African Americans born in the U.S. whose ancestors were enslaved. He explains the historical context of the African American experience and how hip-hop originated, particularly through figures like DJ Kool Herc, a Jamaican-born DJ in the Bronx. The video highlights ongoing tensions within the hip-hop community, particularly the perspective of Lord Jamar, who argues that Eminem and other non-black artists should not be considered the greatest rappers because it undermines the culture founded by black artists. Fat Joe, while influential in hip-hop, has faced backlash for his comments about Lord Jamar and FBA, with many calling for an apology after he suggested that criticisms came from "black racists." Due to the controversy, Fat Joe has announced he will step down as the host of the BET Hip Hop Awards. The video concludes with Jonny hoping for a resolution between the two influential figures in hip-hop, emphasizing the importance of unity in the industry. He encourages viewers to share their thoughts and suggestions for future content.
