Irv Gotti has responded to Fat Joe’s recent comments about the Murder Inc. co-founder airing out his private business with his former artist Ashanti.
During an interview with 97.9 The Box in Houston, Gotti was asked about Joe’s comments to which he replied: “I think I feel like he fooled me. He’s not my friend. I was fooled.”
It was abundantly clear Gotti’s publicist was listening in and wanted him to stop talking about Joe, but he continued. “But in life, you know what — and this isn’t about Joe — you know what gets me through this? My family. And in life, everybody goes through friends, people who you thought was your friend — I’m not talking about Joe. Let me talk!
“In life, I’ve had countless friends come and go. You know what remains consistent and why I get through all of this? My family.”
Irv Gotti has been making the press rounds in support of The Rise, Fall & Rebirth Of Murder Inc. Records: The Murder Inc. Story docu-series, which premieres on BET Tuesday night (August 9).
During a stop at Drink Champs, he claimed he came up with the concept for “Happy” after having sex with Ashanti, which caught Joe’s attention.
Fat Joe addressed the interview in a recent Instagram Live, saying: “Whatever Irv has with Ashanti is 20 years old. I know he was making some points that mean a lot to him, his heart and soul, but when you keep ranting about somebody 20 years later, it felt like he’s not over the young lady.
“Also, we didn’t know that they was fucking. ‘Cause the whole time, I’m there! ‘What’s Luv,’ Big Pun record, on tour — I never seen them together like that. Now I’m not saying they wasn’t; they was, or there was rumors they was. I never seen it. But I don’t need to know!”
Ma$e Addresses JAY-Z Subliminally Dissing Him On ‘Imaginary Players’
He added: “He signed DMX, he signed JAY-Z, he signed Ja. The man’s a genius, there’s no question. But he makes himself look crazy disrespecting her and the woman never really disrespected him. All this shit he’s talking and all that, I’m looking like, ‘Damn, bro.'”
Meanwhile, Fat Joe has a theory about what led to New York City Hip Hop no longer being on the throne, and he believes ego had a lot to do with it.
Joey Crack hopped on Instagram last month to explain that he thinks Atlanta watched how the NYC Hip Hop scene was moving in the 2000s and learned not to make the same mistakes by being much more collaborative.
Joe cited several reasons he felt contributed to the downfall of New York rap’s dominance, like different rappers claiming they were the King of New York, which made people feel a certain type of way and resulted in relationships being damaged, which led to lucrative opportunities being missed out on.
Gotti knows not to say anything reckless about Joe Crack, yet he talked all that smack about Ashanti stuff that should stay between them. Yet Gotti got batch in him and the same goes to Ja, Joe called both of them out and neither one said nothing in response. Funny Lil’ Fruitcakes lol.
Friends actually call you out on your BS. If you’re disclosing private information about a female you slept with, that’s not cool. Real men don’t “kiss and tell” on a sausage fest podcast with 5 other guys. NORE is the one who fooled you into revealing private information that you should have kept to yourself
He’s such a ho, he got a tiny bit of relevance and doesn’t know how to handle it except he a narcissistic sociopath.
This clown ran his mouth like a bitch and got called out. Now he’s trying to play the victim? Absolutely zero self awareness smfh.
I was about to make a light-skinned joke but forget it.
well irv puttin that 300M to use payin this site 800ish for stories everyday
And 200 on Kleenex tissues for his crybaby ass.
Perv Gotti got plenty money after that 300 million dollar distribution deal. He can basically buy or make a stable full of Ashanti and Megan Thee Stallion clones if he wanted. Why The F*** is this dude still talking about this. He got called out and proved wrong, so what, you got “kiss my ass” money that’ll make that shit disappear real quick. He should’ve just kept his mouth shut and this would’ve never been a thing in the first place for him to worry about. What generation gave birth to such sensitive ass n*****.
I need Curtis to make why we’re seeing Irv Gotti again, make sense, lol
Joey Crack was speaking the truth, but he could’ve hit Irv direct not this social media girl sh!t
Irv Gotti is always getting fooled because he IS a fool
Irv isn’t a fool. He just sold his entire catalog of artist for like 300 million cash. He owned Jay Z, Ashanti, Ja and Joe. They weren’t making shit from Spotify but he was. He has fuck you money now so he basically came up on them all and said his peace. But he won. Hate him or not. And that’s why people like you are broke af
Is this Irv? Are you ok, buddy?
He is a fool because he said one of his billionaire friends told him he didn’t own anything then he goes on to sell the one thing he owns which is the masters and takes a loan for 200 million. I’m not sure how everyone missed that in the interview but it was naw dropping for me. 100 million for the masters and 200 million in credit. He sold what he owned and went into debt just like that while talking about ownership. That’s a fool to the core.
Ever since Fat Joe started losing Weight he’s been losing friends, but thats a good thing in this case
A REAL FRIEND WILL CALL YOU OUT ON YOUR BS INSTEAD OF BEING A WEAK ASS YES MAN.
If you dont know what’s going on, and you wasn’t there, a REAL FRIEND Would stay out of it. PERIOD!!!
Fuck him, talking old shit just because he got that deal that made him millionaire again
