We’re out. We‘re outside, you know it feels good to be outside, it feels good to see family it feels good to get back to business. You know it’s amazing, it’s an amazing feeling.

Well, I think just celebrating fathers, good fathers, fathers that are there by their kids. Empowering fathers and letting them know- I’m sure they don‘t need a pat on the back- but pretty much giving them a pat on the back like, ‘yo you doing the right thing.’ So we’re going to be out there on the 20th in the morning in Brooklyn New York, with me and a bunch of fathers, and we telling everyone to bring your fathers out. If you’re proud of your father bring them out and we’re going to March together, in solidarity.

You can do stuff like my brother [DJ] Khaled does all the time on his Instagram, social media, with his kids. You know we got a big ‘machismo’ about us men but there’s nothing wrong with publicly showing affection for your kids, loving your kids. And showing that- that will make other people realize, it’s cool. You’re cool to show your kids love. It’s cool to be ‘dad and papa’ publicly, you know what I’m saying? And thats what this march is all about, just embracing the fathers who are doing the right thing. Like you said, there are stereotypes out there and propaganda- I will call it propaganda. Where it isn’t necessarily true, you know, there are great fathers out there. I meet them all the time.

Well, you know my father was different. He didn‘t really know how to really, really show love, and be affectionate. So I show it to them. And I used to be jealous of my best friend Tone because his father would walk up and kiss him on the mouth in front of everybody and be like ‘I love you.’ And I’d be like wow man his father really loves him, and a kid needs to know that. It’s very important that we show affection and show them leadership, be strong. We definitely want them better than we were, which is hard these days. You know we try to work hard so that our kids can have one step up more than we had growing up in the end. So they got to embrace that and they got to take it to the next level.

Wow, best advice my father has ever given me? You know my father crazy. You know I‘m the type of guy, I’m like Bugsy Siegel the guy who made Vegas. I will invest in something if I believe in it, even if I lose I don’t care because I believed in it cause I come from nothing. He’s more of ‘save your money, you crazy, you opening another business? You’re nuts, I’m telling you.” And I’m more of a risk-taker. I think there’s no reward without risk. That’s the difference between us, he would always tell me ‘save your money save your money save your money’. And me, I’m like dad, ‘I’m trying to be a billionaire dad.’ But thanks to them, my mother and father have been together for 50 something years and I’ve been with my wife for 26 years. So they set the example in many ways.

Man Bennifer 2.0 that’s a serious one. I don‘t know what to say I mean as long as my sister is happy, I’m always here to support her. That’s it. No matter ‘Bennifer’ or whoever it is, whatever she wants to do. It’s always been an honor to have her as my sister and she’s been always so real with me and so beautiful that I support her to the moon and back.

We’re doing a lot. I think the next 10 years is going to be ‘Fat Joe The American businessman.’ That‘s how I structure my next 10 years. On becoming the American businessman and investing in different businesses and creating different projects and movies, all type of things, just getting it in.
