Fat Joe roasted by MLB fans after rapper ‘kills Yankee Stadium aura’ before World Series game vs. Dodgers

Fat Joe’s opening number ahead of Game 3 of the 2024 World Series between the New York Yankees and the Los Angeles Dodgers had a terrible reception from MLB fans.

As the series shifted from the California Hills to the Boogie Down Bronx, the Yankees had the rapper welcome fans to Yankee Stadium as the team entered the game with a 2-0 deficit.

However, the New York native’s lackluster performance as he walked around the diamond led fans to palm their faces and scratch their scalps. They then flamed the rapper on X for doing more ad-libbing than rapping during the four-minute mashup.

‘That man Fat Joe on the mound in Tims,’ one captioned snips of Fat Joe. ‘I KNOW them groundskeepers off camera having a heart attack.’

‘Fat Joe opening up for the Yankees might be one of the worst things I’ve ever witnessed,’ a second added. 

‘Who thought this Fat Joe performance before #WorldSeries Game 3, in the middle of the field all by himself, was a good idea,’ a third chimed in. ‘Man is having to Ab lib almost all three songs instead of the actual words.’

A fourth posted a video of a man smashing a TV set while watching a game and captioned: ‘Yankees fans watching Fat Joe single handedly kill Yankee Stadium’s aura.’

Other fans took the Yankees countering Ice Cube’s Game 2 performance in Los Angeles with Fat Joe as a sign of things to come for the Yankees. 

‘Dodgers brought out Ice Cube and the Yankees brought out Fat Joe,’ a fifth fan wrote with two crying emojis to caption a five second clip of Shannon Sharpe crying.

‘Yankees brought in fat Joe to represent the Bronx … we lost,’ a sixth wrote.
