Everybody knows that Fat Joe is one of the most entertaining storytellers in the world. For his latest, the Bronx legend said that he ran into Desiigner just before his indecent exposure incident.
Speaking on the latest episode of Joe and Jada, Fat Joe recalled seeing Desiigner at an airport before the unfortunate situation took place.
During the conversation, Fat Joe and Jadakiss were discussing the benefits of being a one-hit wonder in hip-hop when Jada brought up Desiigner’s breakthrough hit “Panda.”
“Oh, yo, ‘Panda, Panda,’ is the one,” Joe laughed. “He sold 10 million on that, right?”
Jada said that Desiigner made “a shit load of money” off the track, to which Joe then mentioned Desiigned “jerking” on an airplane.
“You know what’s crazy? I seen him in Dubai at the airport that day,” Joe said. “The same f**king day. He seemed so normal. I’m like, ‘Yo, what’s up, man?’ Then the next thing I know, when I arrive in the States … Tumblin’ dice.”
In 2023, Desiigner pleaded guilty to indecent exposure” after he bared himself to a flight attendant on an airplane journey from Tokyo to Minneapolis.” Also, he was accused of masturbating and ordered to register as a sex offender.
Interestingly, he said that his vegan diet was the cause of the incident. In an interview with Adam22 of No Jumper, the Brooklyn-born artist said he was “fully tweaked out” during the plane journey and wasn’t fully aware of his behavior.
“I didn’t know what I was doing. I was fully tweaked out of my mind.” He continued, “when I was vegan, I didn’t have enough sugars and stuff like that, so it was like I was out of my body.”
“I was on medication and just went to sleep on the plane. I’m, like, out of my body saying wild sh*t.”
