Fat Joe called out French Montana during a recent episode of the “Joe & Jada” podcast, clowning him for overstating his role in their Grammy-nominated hit “All The Way Up.”
The Bronx rapper took a playful yet pointed jab at his longtime collaborator, saying French has been talking like he carried the track solo.
“You know your man French Montana, that n#### delusional man,” Joe said with a laugh. “We did ‘All The Way Up’ with French Montana. That boy, he be talking about it’s that golden voice… He just take too much credit for it. There’s a lot of n##### signed to delusional records. I’m being honest with you.”

The track, which also features Remy Ma, became a major success in 2016, earning Grammy nominations for Best Rap Performance and Best Rap Song. But behind the accolades, the song has been the center of a messy credit tug-of-war.
Joe’s remarks come amid ongoing legal tensions. Miami rapper Fly Havana has accused both Joe and French Montana of excluding him from the song’s creation credits and profits.
The active lawsuit claims Havana co-wrote the track but was never properly acknowledged or paid. While the legal battle continues, Joe has consistently recognized French’s contribution but maintains that the credit should be shared equally.
He’s made it clear that French’s narrative doesn’t match the reality of how the song came together.
Meanwhile, Joe and Jadakiss have been making waves with their “Joe & Jada” podcast.
Their recent interview with Clipse — the duo of Pusha T and Malice — went viral after they previewed a track from the group’s upcoming album Let God Sort Em Out.
In a clip shared online, Joe and Jada react to “Chains & Whips” featuring Kendrick Lamar, with the caption, “@jadakiss face says it all @clipse and @kendricklamar went CRAZY on this.”
