I agree it is a stretch for the series concept, but Fat Joe is often overlooked in people's lists of fave whatevers.

I would rather put Diamond or Lord Finesse on Unsung.

What up Cinny, would that be Diamond D or the female rapper Diamond from Crime Mob?

As much as I want to diss the selection of Fat Joe as an Unsung subject (and yes, it does seem like they're REALLY stretching to find content that viewers will tune into), I've always been, on the low, a Fat Joe fan. Yes, I'll be watching with a very skeptical eye but I will definately be watching.

ALL THE WAY UP!

Same here. I'll be watching for sure. How about JJ Fad for an Unsung story if they need rappers to cover.

They definitly deserve an episode.

IMO, artists that are not commercial do not automaticaly deserve an Unsung. I think Unsung should be for artists that were pioneers, had unique or interesting talents or artists that are overlooked and underrated.

Good episode. Took me back to some good tunes that I'd forgotten and learned a little more about Joey Crack and the Terror Squad.

Jj Fad did they do anything besides Supersonic?[/quote JJ Fad had two albums. The first one was produced by Dr. Dre, so there could be some juicy stories in there.

An hour long? I just checked their 2nd album didn't even chart. Not Unsung. Maybe if they do a 80s Hip-Hop 1 hit wonders how with them and Special Ed and Def Jef than yeah, lol.

From the "WHAT-DOES-THAT-HAVE-TO-DO-WITH-ANYTHING?" file: back in the day, there was a group of girls in my high school that had a real cool Sydney/Charraine (from House Party) dance routine to JJ Fad's "Now Really".

Back to the topic- I'd LOVE a Special Ed Unsung. That was my dude...both of his albums. Shout out to Hitman Howie Tee.

Not everyone knows this though. I would have never known he had recent music out if not

for this show. There are a few Unsung artists from the 90's who are still recording new music.

Joe Tex!

Definitly deserves one if he doesnt have one already

I used to see him back in the day at the clubs CUTTING UP...back when he was still fat. I swear there are some women in this world that will never miss a chance to bend over and have men inspect their hindquarters like cows going to market
