Because, kind of like, "real hip-hop" fans, Mexicans have a mentality that's stuck in the past.

KapG talks about how a lot Mexicans feel like he isn't "Mexican" enough so he's stuck in the middle of being too "black" for Mexicans and too "Mexican" for the mainstream.

You got to have on a raiders jersey and flip-flops with socks to appeal to the masses of Mexicans and that style won't appeal to the mainstream

And they can lie about their affiliation with the cartel for street cred just like how many other rappers lie about their gang affiliations.

Isn't Fat Joe Hispanic?

I believe Fat Joe is Puerto Rican which means he's from an island called Puerto Rico. An entirely different country from Mexico.

Not sure if he's Mexican or something else but that dude Aztek Escobar had it..I don't know what ended up happening but he's an actor now.
