To say people idolize Kiss is bullshit?
So Jay-Z wasn't sucking Jadakiss' & the LOX's dick to get them on his label? & Settled for Freeway & Beans because they admired the Ruff Ryders & THE LOX & had a similar sound?
Diddy didn't keep Jada & Styles tied to their record deal well after they stopped making music for him? Dude wanted to hold them slaves to a contract...typical Diddy shit, but Jada & Styles talked it out with Diddy and got out of their contract. You gotta be respected to do that. Not too many artists walk out of contracts like that, especially when you're talkin about Diddy
Eminem lists Jadakiss as one of his inspirations & shouts him out on "Til I Collapse" as one of the GOAT rappers on that list he brings up
It goes "Reggie, Jay-Z, Tupac, & Biggie...Andre from Outcast,
Jada, Kurupt, Nas, & then me. But in this industry I'm the cause of a lot of envy. So when I'm not put on this list this shit does not offend me"
& go to @
nas on Twitter a few days ago nigga tweeted "THE LOX!!!"
Jadakiss is more respected than Eminem, Jay-Z, & Nas
Never had 'the machine' or the multi plats to validate his shit but his street presence and love from hood to hood is unmatched. He can walk anywhere and the gulliest niggas would show love
only dude to get respect like that is Scarface..and that's cuz Scarface been puttin the South on since the Tupac days
