With rappers such as Snoop Dogg, Jay-Z and T.I. executive producing peers’ projects other labels, D-Block’s Jadakiss may be the latest. In an interview with Real Talk NY, veteran rapper Bow Wow explained that he sought out some lyrical guidance for his first full-length with Cash Money Records.
“I have Jadakiss [on] board. Me and Jada, we’re gonna complete my whole entire album. I got Jada as the ambassador of my album. I did that because I wanted somebody who was well respected in Hip Hop to challenge me,” said the Columbus native. Bow Wow did admit that he’s yet to begin recording the project.
The two have not worked together on either’s solo albums previously.
Reportedly titled Who Is Shad Moss, the upcoming album will be Bow Wow’s first since leaving Sony Records last year. (August 11)
UPDATE: In a new interview with KarenCivil.com, The L.O.X. emcee revealed that Bow Wow may have spoken too soon on their plans. “That’s still in the [talking stages],” said Jadakiss about the reports of his overseeing Bow Wow’s next album. “I holla’d at Bow [Wow], then he mentioned [my overseeing his album] on the red carpet [for] Lottery Ticket premiere.” Understanding that fans ran with the news, Jadakiss deduced, “That’s what riled up [the fans]. We never really sat down and discussed me overseeing his project. We briefly talked about it over the phone, but we never [confirmed it].”
However, D-Block’s ‘Kiss did not say he was unwilling to work with the former child-rapper. “If it’s a right situation, we can work it out.”
Jadakiss also spoke about the state of The L.O.X. third album and his label situation. Watch the footage here.

or kiss is ghostwriting the shit
Ummm when has he ever written a album of course Jada is going to be ghostwriting Jada spends part of his damn career ghostwriting.
veteran rapper and bow wow, should never be used in the same sentence
Well it does make sense. A veteran is someone who’s been active in a certain area for a long period of time. Bow Wow’s been in the game for 10 years so he is indeed a veteran. Now if it said “legendary rapper Bow Wow” then we know something is very wrong.
first respectable thing i’ve seen bow wow do. kiss gon have that lil nigga under the drills.
but at the same time i’m not gettin too excited(i’m not getting excited at all fuck it it’s bow wow) seeing kiss can barely make albums his-self

Lord help Jada, He’s crazy if he lets a weak rapper like BowSissy spit one of his rhymes!
u crack me up. u right
Bow wow is paid, so it makes sense jada wants that money…bow-wow is the BEST Rapper alive…
LMAO. Not even close…
congratulations, miguel, for your pundit, astute analysis of the comment you replied. You clearly recognized the sarcasm and appropriately took care of the matter.
Lyrically Bow Wow is a dead horse.
He had his time as a kid. Its over let it go.
The album is gonna be wack but at least Jada is gonna get paid.
I thought this wack elf was gonna stop rapping after his last album dropped. I hate when rappers always claim they are going to stop rapping and then eat their words and make a new album. I think it’s a trend that jay-z pretty much help start.
FUCK U BOW WOW.HOW CAN U DISGRACE UR FAME THIS WAY…………..FUCK U AND ALL UR GENERATIONS INFACT U’AR AN EXCEPTION OF CREATION.INSTEAD OF CREATN UR OWN GROUP WITH UR FUCKN MONEY U’RE JOIN BLOOD MONEY GROUP.fuck u

thats what kiss meant by “if its a right situation, we can work it out”…

I hate they way HHDX writes their interviews…it feels so broken up, y’all some slackers.
