Fat Joe is turning New York’s championship celebration into a full-fledged hip-hop moment with the release of the official video for “Victory Lap (HIM),” featuring Yung Miami and Jadakiss.
Directed by longtime collaborator Eif Rivera, the visual was filmed during the New York Knicks’ historic championship parade, capturing the energy of thousands of fans lining the streets of Manhattan as the city celebrated its first NBA title in decades. The parade serves as the perfect backdrop for a record that doubles as both a victory anthem and a tribute to New York pride.
Produced by the legendary duo Cool & Dre, “Victory Lap (HIM)” blends hard-hitting production with triumphant lyrics, giving Fat Joe an opportunity to celebrate both personal success and his lifelong loyalty to the Knicks. Yung Miami brings her signature confidence to the track, while Jadakiss delivers a gritty verse that reinforces the song’s championship mentality.
Throughout the video, Fat Joe is surrounded by the excitement of the parade, with championship floats, packed streets, and passionate Knicks supporters adding an authentic backdrop that couldn’t be recreated on a traditional set. Rather than relying on elaborate visual effects, the video leans into the real-life celebration, making viewers feel like they’re part of one of New York City’s biggest sports moments.
The release continues Fat Joe’s highly visible role throughout the Knicks’ championship run. As one of the franchise’s most recognizable celebrity supporters, he became a familiar face during the postseason before transforming the team’s title celebration into a hip-hop event with performances and appearances alongside fellow New York artists.
“Victory Lap (HIM)” arrives as both a celebration record and a reminder of Fat Joe’s enduring connection to his hometown. By combining championship imagery with an all-star lineup and cinematic direction from Eif Rivera, the video captures a moment that resonates far beyond basketball.
