“It feels as if I never get my just due.” — Fat Joe Quote

It feels as if I never get my just due.

I was at a party New Year's Eve, and - no lie - at least 10 different people came up to me. One guy was like, 'I lost 30 pounds because of you.' So people just coming up to me. I don't know these people - random people.

Man I got so many regrets. The biggest is that Eminem gave me so many demos - six different times he approached me, and I didn't sign him. Shame on me.

'Envy' was a bit of a challenge for me. It was smooth.

The 'hood don't really wanna hear it, but you need brown rice, you need wheat bread, stuff like that.

I'm not one of these writers who says, 'Oh yes, the next book is due out in one year and three days.' I just say, 'You're gonna get it when it's done. It's gonna be good, but you're not going to get it until it is good.'

I overhaul myself for my roles. Sooner or later, I will get my due.

I feel that Marco Polo has really been misrepresented - has never really gotten his due.

I'm really close to my mother. She sacrificed a lot for me and my sister. She gave up her career. Whatever I am today is due to the values my mother instilled in me.

The lads I played football with on the street when I was a kid in Cardiff were as good as me, and in many ways, my career is due to them.
