Hip Hop in NY just suffered a massive heart attack with this news...it wasn't just a record store, it was the epicenter of underground rap...i've met many artists at Fat Beats and seen several free live performances...they'll never be another store like this ever again...R.I.P.

Had the pleasure of visiting Fat Beats in the summer of 2007 travelling all the way from Belfast Ireland.

It was an honor to meet you today Eclipse. You are a legend and thank you for your contribution not only to hip-hop but to New York City. This is our city, our culture, and it's fading away. I'll see you soon and yeah I posted like 5 videos from Thursday.

Flew in from the U.K twice - once in 2003 and again in 2007 - DJ Eclipse behind the till. Picked up Style Wars DVD, Just Ice and BDP classics and that camo record bag. Sad to hear it shut down. NY really needs places like that. 🎧

Ventured to the legendary FatBeats during the summer of '99 during a family trip to NYC. I was looking for some newer scratch records and some rare groove mixes and left with DJ Eclipse's Fractured Breaks and Kon & Amir's On Track Vol. 1-3 on cassette. That was the one and only time I ever visited a FatBeats store. A shame I never got to make a return trip nor can I in the future.

if you wanna find high quality hip hop you can go to amoeba on 6400 Sunset Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA or Record Surplus on 12436 Santa Monica Blvd, Los Angeles, CA they still got real raw rare NEW and OLD cds and vinyls.

My nephew and I went to Fatbeats yesterday. We went to see Vinny Paz, her was signing his new CD. While we were talking to Vinny, Jus Allah showed up, another GREAT artist. We took a few photos with them outside, they were very personable. We then went up for the signing and i have to say it was like 105 degrees in there. They had no airconditioning. It was way too hot. My nephew finally got his CD signed by Vinny, took a few more photos with Vinny and Jus.
