Loyalty is the name of the game for
Fat Joe this time out, as it relates to fans still true to the Bronx's hardest rapper despite chart success with
Ashanti, his own loyalty to his hardcore past considering there's a spate of joints for the ladies this time out, and having his loyalty to deceased partner
Big Pun questioned by
Pun's widow in a highly publicized radio bout just before the album's release. Driven by the breakout of his
Ashanti duet
"What's Luv?," Loyalty comes with hardcore-but-hot joints like the sleek single
"Crush Tonight" (with
Ginuwine),
"Bust at You," the
Irv Gotti production
"Turn Me On," and
"TS Piece" (the latter with
Terror Squad's
Remy holding up the female end).
Fat Joe proves he's still got a lot of hardcore in him, though, with
"Gangsta" and
"Born in the Ghetto," plus another volume in the
"Sh*t Is Real" saga and a new
Terror Squad anthem,
"Prove Something." ~John Bush, All Music Guide
