==Early life==
Fat Joe was born on August 19, 1970 in the South Bronx area of New York City, where he was raised by parents of Puerto Rican and Cuban descent.〔 He lived in public housing and began stealing at a young age to support his family. He also admits that he was a bully in his childhood.〔 His brother introduced him to rap music. As a teenager, he was highly influenced by fellow Latino rapper Big Pun. Fat Joe explained the rapper's influence on him by saying "Latinos before us who had the opportunity to do it just didn't know how to do it. They came in trying to do this black music, waving flags. () we're trying to kick in the doors for other Latinos and represent our people, and it shows."
