14:21Now PlayingIn this 2014 full-length conversation, R&B singer Joe opens up about growing up as a preacher’s kid, learning piano, guitar, and drums in church, and how a strict gospel-centered upbringing shaped his discipline and career. He reflects on moving from Georgia to New York at 17, becoming a young father, and building a stronger bond with his daughter.
Joe also discusses independence in R&B, leaving Kedar Entertainment, partnering with BMG Chrysalis/Sony BMG, and launching his Plaid Takeover vision. He previews the album *Bridges*, including “Love & Sex Part 2” with Kelly Rowland, and talks working with 50 Cent on “Big Rich Town” for the *Power* TV era. Plus, Joe revisits Big Pun and Fat Joe’s classic “Still Not a Player,” the Latin crossover hook, and why 50 Cent’s old name-drop never bothered him.
