Fat Joe Claims that 95 Percent of His Raps Are Lies

Fat Joe claimed that the content in his music is "95 percent" false. This comes amid controversy over rappers' music being used in court cases.

The Bronx rapper took Instagram on Tuesday (December 13) to share a photo of himself in the streets of the Bronx pointing a gun at the camera. "This was the other 5%," he captioned the post with a laughing emoji.

His contemporaries joined in on the fun in the comment section. Cam'ron posting laughing emojis and Memphis Bleek writing: "That 5% matters the most," also with laughing emojis. Fabolous also commented: "5% Fat Joe."

Late last month, Fat Joe defended Young Thug by claiming that he's lied in most of the songs he's released throughout his career. During a CNN interview with Gayle King, the Bronx rapper said it's a "travesty" that Thugga's lyrics can be used against him in the ongoing YSL RICO case.

"I've been rapping professionally for 30 years - I've lied in almost 95 percent of my songs," he began. "I'm being honest. I write like I feel that day. I'm just being creative. You couldn't build a jail high enough for the lyrics I've said on songs which are all untrue."
