A new video featured
Remy Ma and
Fat Joe performing without shirts on, and social media flipped out over the display.
The new track from Remy Ma and Fat Joe, “Outta Control” featuring Cool & Dre just got a new video, and the two Bronx, New York rappers appear in it without their shirts, which has social media in an uproar – particularly over Fat Joe’s topless status. The new single is the first solo effort from the
Don Cartagena artist in fourteen years – his last was
The Darkside Vol. 1, which was released in 2010.
The new track is another collaborative effort between Fat Joe and Remy Ma – the pair teamed up for the Terror Squad founder’s run of three albums beginning with
2017’s
Plata O Plomo, 2019’s
Family Ties with Dre from Cool & Dre, and
What Would Big Do in 2021 with
DJ Drama. The new video features Remy rhyming topless, with long hair covering her breasts with a strip club and the boxing ring as the setting. The latter stands out as Fat Joe delivers his verse shirtless, wearing a bucket hat and boxing trunks with various sneakers positioned behind him.
Those who caught the video were fairly shocked by the topless style of Remy Ma but mostly shocked by Fat Joe’s move. The MC has been known to doff his shirt at performances in the past, with the last instance being at the HipHop 50 Live concert event at Yankee Stadium last August. Social media users expressed their upset at the move, while some clowned Fat Joe mercilessly. In a post on X, formerly Twitter, one user went so far as to do a side-by-side comparison of Fat Joe’s appearance in the video to fellow rapper Queen Latifah’s topless scene in the 2015 HBO biopic
Bessie about the legendary blues singer Bessie Smith.
