Check out the interview with Uber Urban as they catch up with Tariq as he speaks on doing a hip hop blues album, lifestyle changes, & more.

Fat Joe – “Ceilings To The Sky” (Video)
February 25, 2013
Mind Muscle CX did up a solid music video for Fat Joe’s new joint “Ceilings To The Sky” that follows the BX king making his way around Miami & living life to the fullest. Fat Joe’s next project ‘The Darkside Vol. 3′ was slated to be released some time this year. Whether we’ll see the release of that before he heads to jail for income tax evasion is another story altogether as he’s scheduled to be sentenced in April. Hopefully we’ll get some great work from the Don Cartegena sometime this year….
