Early in 2011, news surfaced about Fat Joe owing around $800,000 in back taxes. The stories soon faded away when Fat Joe returned with his new music. Over the past two years, Fat Joe has returned to his hitmaking ways. But, this does not necessarily mean he is out of the woods yet.
Whether they love him or hate him, Fat Joe has always remained honest. Perhaps this is the real reason he has managed to have success in three different decades without coming off as “old.” Falling from grace a few years ago, Fat Joe appears to be back in the spotlight, but he has something to overcome.
Yesterday, Fat Joe sat down with Sway Calloway for MTV’s “RapFix Live.” During the interview, Fat Joe talked about everything. Nothing was off limits, so Fat Joe spoke on the debt he owes to the IRS. Fat Joe revealed he faces up to two years in prison over the unpaid taxes.
