Riding high off their recent Verzuz victory over Dipset, Jadakiss and The LOX headed to Donda headquarters stationed at Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta to help Kanye West execute his 10th studio album. HipHopDX caught up with the Yonkers legends at Ice Cube’s Big 3 league championship on Sunday (September 5) in The Bahamas.
“Someone from Ye’s camp actually reached out to my older son,” he said. “Then Ye called us the next day after Verzuz, he hit me the next morning. We flew straight there and went straight to the studio and knocked the song out. Then went and rested and came back the next day and went to the event and flew back.”
Jada was also appreciative of being in the building to take in Kanye’s second listening experience for Donda in Atlanta. The August 6 event saw Yeezy levitate out of the stadium to close out the event.
“It was ill,” Jadakiss said. “It was a different experience for us, but it was super dope.”
Jada, Sheek Louch and Styles P appeared on Donda closer “Jesus Lord, Pt. 2” alongside Jay Electronica, Kanye West and Larry Hoover Jr.
Donda debuted at No. 1 atop the Billboard 200 with 309,000 total album-equivalent units sold. With his latest feat, Kanye became the first artist to post 10 No. 1 albums on the Billboard 200 in the 21st century.

Had it not been for that Verzus he would have never called them. Bandwagon ass follower
Considering Kanye mentioned The Lox in “Touch the Sky” and has made music with Jadakiss, I doubt he’s jumping on a non-existent bandwagon. The Lox gained no new fans from that Verzus, you just got to see how big their core fan base was…
uhhhh, newsflash, if bad boy’s street team can’t work the lox, that’s insinuating they suck. that’s a diss.
No it wasn’t, wordplay mate
Back when they thought pink Polos would hurt the Roc/Before Cam got the shit to pop/The doors was closed, I felt like Bad Boy’s street team: I couldn’t work the locks
