Hosts: Fat Joe & Jadakiss
Guest: A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie
This episode features Bronx rap star A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie in a lively conversation with Fat Joe, Jadakiss, and friends. The crew dives into A Boogie's legendary run—72 RIAA gold and platinum records, lavish spending ($500K+ on Chrome Hearts, luxury cars), his new EP and approach to music, fashion influence, surviving the New York scene, and the highs and lows of fame. Genuine and humorous, the talk balances stories of wild nights, practical wisdom, and reflections on artistic evolution.
Timestamp: [03:08]–[05:18]
“The process of making an album is the reason why I dropped the EP. Felt like I needed a little more time to drop this album, so I just picked six of my favorite songs.”
— A Boogie ([04:58])
Timestamp: [05:59]–[06:15]
Timestamp: [05:26]–[05:49]
Timestamp: [09:54]–[11:13]; [35:57]–[37:15]
“My black leathers with the lime green crosses—those are the most expensive chromes I probably got. Like, damn. It ain’t even no number on those right there.”
— A Boogie ([11:17])
Timestamp: [29:17]–[30:37]
Timestamp: [12:42]; [25:22]–[25:54]
Timestamp: [24:34]–[25:10]

“Christmas time came around… they said A Boogie just bought 5,000 pairs of sneakers for the projects.” ([38:56])
Timestamp: [48:39]–[51:14]
Timestamp: [46:09]–[47:50]
A Boogie on confidence:
“Some places you gotta walk in acting like you supposed to be doing it. When you got that confidence, you post to do the…” ([07:35])
On labels and independence:
“I might as well try that… see how the extra money go.” ([25:10])
On heartbreak influencing music:
“It is what it is. When it comes down to that whole heartbreak… that’s how this started.” ([51:40])
On the Bronx & staying “real”:
“You ain’t going to the Bronx to just chill.” ([33:37])
Tone: The conversation is candid, hilarious, full of East Coast bravado, and deeply rooted in hip-hop culture. A Boogie balances unconventional flexes with self-awareness, business acumen, and concern for the next generation.
For New Listeners:
Even if you miss the jokes about specific strip clubs or local fashion gags, the episode is a fast-paced, laugh-filled tour of what makes A Boogie a singular figure in modern rap. You’ll learn about the pressure of stardom, personal growth, why he keeps his circle tight, and how his creative process, style, and street ethics all intersect.
This is a must-listen for hip-hop fans, those interested in NYC culture, or anyone fascinated by fame’s intersection with real life, self-invention, and legacy. As always, A Boogie’s blend of humility and flexing, family loyalty, and “vibrator” melodies keeps both industry and streets tuned in.
