Fat Joe Officially a Platinum (Ringtone) Rapper

Terror Squad Entertainment and Imperial Records officially announced that Fat Joe's hit single, "Make It Rain,'" has sold over 1 million ring tones, a statement certified by the RIAA.

Fat Joe's independent album Me, Myself and I reached a milestone for many artists going the indie route. The album reached number 6 on the Billboard R&B/Hip Hop charts, number 3 on the Billboard R&B/Hip Hop Album chart and debuted at number 14 on the Billboard Top 200 Album Chart.

"Fat Joe and Terror Squad Entertainment have been great to work with and are a prime example of what we can bring to a project," said Neil Levine, Imperial Records Senior VP/GM. "We bring the same pioneering spirit and dedication to quality music as the original Imperial, but with expertise and resources right for independent urban artists today. We have the advantage of being super-focused on finding and developing the most exciting music in the clubs and the streets, but also have access to major label resources. It's a great combination for our artists."

A perfect example of the underdog stealing the spotlight.
