Fat Joe's first single off his eleventh album is, "Another Round," a collaboration with Chris Brown. The Another Round Songfacts reports that it was his first Hot 100 hit for four years.
Fat Joe has also had major beef with his ex TS Crew member Cuban Linkz who was a part of Fat Joe TS Crew until they had a disagreement about money royalties and the pair had a fight and Fat Joe knifed Cuban Linkz on the side of his face. The beef has quiet down now but they are no longer friends and nor do they speak to each other.

Fat Joe Lyrics

It's the mother fucking remix
Uh yea Harlem in tact
Who in the world wanna problem with that?
For real I heard Harlem is back
Who in the world wanna problem with that?
Uh yea Harlem is back
You know I heard Harlem is back
Who in the world wanna problem with that?
Said my niggas don't dance we just pull up our pants
And do the rockaway, now lean back, lean back, lean back, lean back
Come on
I said my niggas don't dance we just pull up our pants
And do the rockaway, now lean back, lean back, lean back, lean back
Come on
Yo yo yo yo its deja vu
And the day y'all do
It'll be the day y'all bleed
Wrist minus 80 degrees
King of Harlem ain't nobody made me leave
Who else could take 5 years off
Cold turkey come back and fly lears off
Cats front leave them leaning like Smirnoff
If haters wanna hate then its their loss
Come up in the Rucker with all my Jake's on
Car grills so big you can cook a steak on
People hear Ma$e call em' wanna get their mase on
You hot 16 I'm a very great song
Been beating on the DJ before the Ma$e song
You play Clake Kent you better have your cape on
Plenty homes mansion many rooms
My necklace, 2 ex's and 3 Bentley bulls now lean back
Lean back, lean back, 'cause he's back (come on)
Lean back, lean back, lean back, 'cause he's back
You don't want no problems with Harlem
You don't want no problems with the boogie down Bronkster
You don't want no drama with the blond bomber
Original don dotta of the blond bottle
The model from white America
Then Joe the spokesperson for the Latino
Then we got Ma$e back to represent everything else in between including the
Percentages of the press we don't
The best from each coast
The midwest to the dirty dirty
Even further to Miami
All the way back to Californ-I-a
It would probably be best right now if I warned Dre to get on the horn and
Tell him about the storm coming all our way
So tell him pack grab a gat right now get on the floor I'll wait
Shake that ass a little more my way
But baby I don't dance not that I can't there's a pistol in my pants
Said my niggas don't dance we just pull up our pants
And do the rockaway, now lean back, lean back, lean back, lean back
I said my niggas don't dance we just pull up our pants
And do the rockaway, now lean back, lean back, lean back, lean back
(Come on)
Ayo, Remy pop but I'm hot
Like an out of state spot
And any body think I'm not
You're found in a vacant lot
You don't really wanna run wit the one chick who smoke dutchess for lunchess
The castle hill I ain't luncheon
Now its on it 4 the terror squad, pun, prospect, sunshine, geddy, crack and Remy Ma
It's the hottest chick, in this game want it
Mah 16 so mean, put 20 g's and my chain on it
Quik to flip
I ain't the average chick
Im packin' a mac in the back of the 45 pass 6
And you know I got enough goons to crush a country
Any dude disrespectin' Pun he better play the run c
Bring your mans, and then we hands all him,
Then we pull timbaland trample 'em, then we pull the cats in them,
Lean back 'cause I aint ever worry, see I'm forever glory, smackin' up any chick in my territory
Said my niggas don't dance we just pull up our pants
And do the rockaway, now lean back, lean back, lean back, lean back (come on)
I said my niggas don't dance we just pull up our pants
And do the rockaway, now lean back, lean back, lean back, lean back (come on)
No Judas or cowardice that Caine's brother Abel is able to stop me
Nigga not me
Got the streets asking damn who can top P
Summer jam killed it man they did it all with one beat
I guess I'm bicoastal now
Took a down south brother to bring your boy out
As the wheel keeps spinning
I can hear niggas thinking crack got one hit then he out
Nope, Joey bring them semi's out
Force you and yours to pour a little Henny out
So much rappers acting in the game
I had to tell them put the mic away and run and get your Emmy's out
Lean back mother fucker
This here's a three peat we back at the Rucker
It's good coke crack preach it to your brother
The mic more rap and preach it you mother fucker
Said my niggas don't dance we just pull up our pants
And do the rockaway, now lean back, lean back, lean back, lean back (come on)
I said my niggas don't dance we just pull up our pants
And do the rockaway, now lean back, lean back, lean back, lean back (come on)

All the way back to Californ-I-a
We also have someone representing California, it's a comprehensive crew
It would probably be best right now if I warned Dre to get on the horn andTell him about the storm coming all our way
We're so cool, there might be a storm brewing and we might need to warn Dr. Dre about it
So tell him pack grab a gat right now get on the floor I'll wait
We have no fear, and we're not moving until Dr. Dre gets here with a gun
Shake that ass a little more my way
We like seeing others dance to our music, so keep it up

As for me, I don't dance, but it's not because I can't, it's because I have a gun on me
Ayo, Remy pop but I'm hot
Someone named Remy is also in the house, and she's hot
Like an out of state spot
She's as hot as a nightclub in another state
And any body think I'm not
Don't even try to doubt her abilities
You're found in a vacant lot
If you dare doubt her, you'll be found in an empty lot
You don't really wanna run wit the one chick who smoke dutchess for lunchess
Don't mess with Remy, she's a tough chick who even smokes cigars for lunch
The castle hill I ain't luncheon
She's from Castle Hill and takes no nonsense from anyone
Now its on it 4 the terror squad, pun, prospect, sunshine, geddy, crack and Remy Ma
We're representing the Terror Squad crew, including members with interesting nicknames
It's the hottest chick, in this game want it

Mah 16 so mean, put 20 g's and my chain on it
Her rap verse is really fierce, and you should put some serious money on her
Quik to flip
She's quick to turn the tables and dominate the scene with her style
I ain't the average chick
She's not your typical run-of-the-mill girl
Im packin' a mac in the back of the 45 pass 6
She's got two guns, and she's not afraid to use them
And you know I got enough goons to crush a country
She has a posse of tough people who can take down an entire country
Any dude disrespectin' Pun he better play the run c
If anyone disrespects Pun, they better run away fast

We're way better than anyone else on the streets, and we killed it at Summer Jam with one awesome beat
I guess I'm bicoastal now,Took a down south brother to bring your boy out
We have members from both coasts, and we're reaching out to people down South as well
As the wheel keeps spinning,I can hear niggas thinking crack got one hit then he out
People think we only have one hit song, but we're constantly evolving and making new music
Nope, Joey bring them semi's out,Force you and yours to pour a little Henny out
We're not messing around, and we'll make you pour out your fancy drink
So much rappers acting in the game,I had to tell them put the mic away and run and get your Emmy's out
There are so many people trying to make it in the rap world, but we're already the best and they should focus on getting an Emmy instead
Lean back mother fucker,This here's a three peat we back at the Rucker
We're back at the Rucker Park, showing off our moves again and making history with our third hit song
It's good coke crack preach it to your brother,The mic more rap and preach it you mother fucker
Our music is addictive and will spread like good cocaine, both preaching and entertaining our fans
