Fat Joe and Jadakiss are joined by John Leguizamo, the Queens-born actor, comedian, and playwright now starring as Pablo Escobar in the first authorized Escobar story, the Spanish-language Hulu series 'Dear Killer Nannies.'

Joe and John reminisce on working together on the 2002 film ‘Empire,’ and Joe talks about writing “My Lifestyle” during the shoot using the all the gangster themes as inspiration. Then, they talk Pabo Escobar: which actor portrayed him best, Pablo’s son consulting on the show, the legends behind what happened to his $30 billion, and why there will never be another gangster like him again.
