It came as a shock to many fans when Antonio Brown walked out on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers mid-game earlier this year. Although his meltdown was deemed unnecessary by many, it does not seem like he is about to set foot on the gridiron any time soon. However, the star WR has already moved on. His talents as an outstanding rapper are now gaining the spotlight like wildfire, especially after the release of his new track ‘Pit Not The Palace’.
On a positive note, many fellow rappers of Brown have come to like his music and publically acknowledged his work. One of them is the veteran rapper, Fat Joe. The 4x Grammy Award-nominated singer shared his interesting story on the growing fandom of AB, during his appearance at the I AM ATHLETE podcast.

“I went to a doctor’s appointment this morning he was playing AB’s new song,” Fat Joe said. “That’s crazy! Not the bullshit dude, my doctor, Gene Nathan, a Jewish doctor, said, ‘Yeah you heard the new AB,’ and he started playing the song. Yo he [AB] might be right.” This incident was crazy to Fat Joe, because, according to him, Brown was more apt as a football player than a rapper. But Fat Joe’s doctor made him change his outlook on the veteran WR’s new career.
However, not to mention that Antonio Brown sacrificed up to a million when he left the Buccaneers at the MetLife Stadium to go full throttle as a rapper. And he is proving himself well enough in this sphere as he has in the football arena. The 7x Pro Bowler released his first album ‘Paradigm’ in April, for which he has received many praises. He still goes on to impress many even now with his unique dance moves, as he did during his performance in the Rolling Loud Miami concert.
