He’s come a long way, and now watch him speak in Starz’s first trailer for “Fat Debate.”
Performing his song “All The Way Up” with Remy Ma, Thursday’s preview charts Fat Joe’s journey from rapper to entrepreneur while promising Method Man as his opening guest during the upcoming October 4 premiere.
Additional guests on Starz’s first-ever weekly talk show include Mary J. Blige, Hakeem Jeffries, T.I., Babyface, Latto, Buju Banton and Remy Ma.
“I’ve been preparing my entire life to have my own show and it’s finally here,” Fat Joe said in a statement. “We’re making history and I thank Starz, Embassy Row and SpringHill for believing in the vision. I look forward to showing another side of my personality and having interesting conversations with some of the most influential leaders and singers in the world. Get your popcorn on.”
Michael Davis serves as executive producer for Embassy Row, while LeBron James, Maverick Carter, Philip Byron and Jamal Henderson produce the EP for SpringHill.
Notably, Sean “Diddy” Combs was originally set to direct the pilot when the project was first announced in September 2022, but he is no longer attached.
“We’re on the cusp of creating the most important, culturally-driven series on television,” Fat Joe said at the time. “With Puff, LeBron, the incredible team at Starz and myself, you have a dream team guaranteed to produce television gold.”
“Fat Debate” premieres October 4 on Starz.
