Jadakiss’ new project is an ode to his 2001 debut album title, Kiss The Game Goodbye. The classic project spawned cult-classics such as “We Gonna Make It” and “Knock Yourself Out.”
During a recent episode of the I Am Athlete podcast, Jadakiss spoke about labels needing to bear the responsibility of lyrical content, specifically with drill music.
“Record labels are being successful off nonsense,” Kiss began. “Somebody went out, did something stupid, recorded a song about it and was able to get a lot of streams, and that became a thing with the whole drill scene. They actually going out, gettin’ active and doin’ stuff and then go into the studio and make a song about what they just did. That should get nipped in the bud as soon as it got created.”
“But nobody’s going to these labels saying they wrong for this,” Kiss continued. “We just blaming it on the kids. So, like my brother said, he don’t like to just put all the blame on these young artists because the radio stations are making them the top songs of the playlist. And the labels are still signing them.”

As far as The LOX goes, the Yonkers trio have been celebrated with a new mural.
Adaluz The Artist is commemorating 50 years of Hip Hop by painting murals across NYC throughout 2023 and he kicked off the celebration last month with a mural of Jadakiss, Styles P and Sheek Louch in The Bronx.
