Pop icon who's gone through an amazing health transformation, I would consider his story worth spreading to college kids.

this same dude was on his most recent mixtape talking that drug and gun talk, but we're supposed to care what he says about easing up on the big macs and pepsi?

Sure. One is mostly fantasized and the other is factual change. Of course I don't expect you to be able to separate the two.

It's a tried and true method of reaching the target audience. You think if Dr. Asswipe was there instead of Fat Joe that room would have been as full?

Im sure if Dr. Oz was there it would have been packed. You get your celeb to worship and a health professional all in one

fantasized or not, his most recent mixtape (which was dope, just so we're clear) was celebrating a lifestyle that leads to the early deaths of many black and latino men, yet he stands there and proclaims to care about healthy living.
