Jay plays the big brother role at the beginning of the clip and offers some relationship advice to Loso. I really wanted to like this song but I couldn’t get past that lethargic beat.
One of my favorite cuts from Loso’s Way. Fab and R-Les need to collaborate more.
Fabolous – “Brooklyn (Go Hard)”
Brooklyn this, Brooklyn that. I swear if I hear one more Brooklyn track, I’m going postal.

I doubt anyone even knew about Fabolous and his son. [via: BlackCelebKids]
Word has it that he’s been with his baby’s mom (above) since 2005.
Now there’s one person who knows exactly how to keep his personal life closely guarded. Young Jeezy could learn from this guy.
Here’s Suge’s lost twin, alongside fellow Def Jam riders Fabolous and Freeway.
Fabolous ft. Jay-Z (and Uncle Murder) – “Brooklyn”
A couple months ago, when I interviewed Fabolous, I asked him if there was a “Brooklyn” collabo with the big homie on his new album From Nothin’ to Somethin’. He said, “I would love that. You oughtta ask him that question too. Of course I would be open to that. I definitely respect Jay’s lyricism and what he’s done for the game, everything that he’s contributed. If the opportunity presents itself, I would love it.”
Well, the rest is between you and Google…
Fabolous takes the time to remind you that he’s rich and you’re not. His Def Jam debut, From Nothin’ to Somethin’, drops on June 12.
Here’s the official tracklist for Fab’s understandably-delayed Def Jam debut, From Nothin’ to Somethin’, now slated for June 12. The folks at Black Oasis are fully cognizant of the fact that no one listens to Fabolous before the summer.
Fabolous – From Nothin’ to Somethin’ Tracklist
1. Yep, I’m Back
2. Return of the Hustle (ft. Swizz Beatz)
3. Change Up
4. “You Make Me Better” (ft. Ne-Yo the R&B singer)
5. So Fabolous
6. “Diamonds” (ft. Young Jeezy)
7. Hustler’s Poste Child (ft. Cassidy)
8. Real Player Like (ft. Lloyd)
9. Foggin’ Up the Windows (ft. R.Kelly)
10. What Should I Do (ft, Lil Mo)
11. Back to School
12. All Jokes on You
13. I Shine, You Shine (ft. Makeeba)
14. “First Time” (ft. Rhianna)

17. Chirp Back (ft. Blu Davinci)
18. Gangsta (ft. Junior Reid)
19. This is Family (ft. Freck Billionaire, Red Cafe, Ransom, Paul Kane, and Joe Budden)
It’s probably worth mentioning that Fab had some strong words about Track 10 when I interviewed him a while back. “It’s really where people are writing me fan letters and they look to their favorite artists for guidance. They’re writing me letters asking me what they should do about their situations, so I answered them. There’s a lot of responsibilities that come with being an artist and I wanted to show them that.”
I guess I should also point out that Track 9 has the most amazing song title ever.
