Bronx hip-hop legend Fat Joe brought his unique style and energy to Yankee Stadium before Game 3 of the World Series, transforming the iconic field into a concert venue.
Fans were thrilled as the rapper performed hits like “New York” and “All The Way Up,” wearing a classic Yankees cap and jacket that showed off his Bronx pride. But it wasn’t just his music that had fans buzzing—Joe’s footwear turned heads, too.
True to his roots, Fat Joe sported a pair of Timberland boots, a New York fashion staple, as he stepped onto the pitcher’s mound. The choice added an extra layer of authenticity to his performance, but it also raised a few eyebrows.
Some fans and commentators joked about whether the grounds crew might need to step in for repairs, as Timberlands are known for their rugged build and could potentially scuff up the delicate pitcher’s mound.
Despite the footwear concerns, Fat Joe’s pre-game mini-set was a hit, electrifying the crowd and setting the tone for an unforgettable game. The performance celebrated the spirit of New York and the Bronx, bringing together the energy of hip-hop and America’s favorite pastime in one unforgettable moment.
