Fat Joe speaks with XXL Magazine about going back to his “Fat Joe Da Gangsta” days for his brand new album The Darkside Vol.1, and the labels issues he ran into over the past couple of years (which have now ended). Fat Joe’s The Darkside Vol.1 is in stores today.

If you are still on the fence about copping Fat Joe’s new album, here are three tracks from it:

Fat Joe – I’m Gone (Produced by DJ Premier

Fat Joe – I Am Crack (Produced By Just Blaze)

Fat Joe ft. The Clipse & Cam’ron – Kilo (Produced By Infamous)
