The world is buzzing over who they think will win the highly anticipated fight between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao on May 2, and VladTV got Fat Joe’s pick while on the Krush Groove concert red carpet, an event made possible by program director Adrian Scott. After admitting that he really likes Pacquiao as a person, Fat Joe says that he would be crazy to bet against Floyd. The Bronx emcee also spoke about him and Big Pun being the first rappers to perform and walk with a boxer at a fight during the Felix Trinidad vs. Oscar De La Hoya bout. Check out more of what Fat Joe had to say above.
“Window Pain is a raw expression of saying I’ve had enough and you’re going to feel it. You are going to feel every ounce of pain that you hear in my voice and finally be able to comprehend my thoughts. Window Pain has a melodic, catchy hook that brings you in and then when you get to the core of the verses it’s detailing my situations and the things I’m trying to take control of. I really am pushing my listeners to think for themselves instead of feeding into what society feels is right.” – J.K.J.
J.K.J. releases his first single and video off his upcoming album, Internal Warfare. J.K.J. is really trying to spark the album off right with the release of “Window Pain,” a track produced by Pittsburgh’s very own Shuma Beats. With Internal Warfare being an album centered on the ups and downs of life and how we battle within ourselves, “Window Pain” provides the clearest illustration of this concept.
