Jadakiss is hard at work in the studio, working on a handful of projects including a solo album and a new project from The LOX. During an interview with Montreality, the raspy rapper said that he’s halfway finished recording his next studio LP Top 5 Dead or Alive, stating that he’s eyeing a first quarter release for the disc.
“It’s coming baby, first quarter. Anywhere, February, March, April… You know, somewhere around there where it feels right,” he said. “It’s halfway finished now. When I finish this tour, I’ll go home and finish the rest of it and then we strategize the marketing plan and get that thing out to the people.”
He also revealed that the new LOX album will be titled We Are the Streets 2, which was previously rumored to be titled New L.O.X. Order. He said that he’s hoping that the group drops the LP in 2013. “Hopefully, [next] year sometime,” he said. “We probably got like six or seven songs done for that as well.”
Jada also turned his attention to his longtime collaborator DMX, recalling the last time he bumped into Dark Man X and where their relationship stands. “During the Rock the Bells tour. He’s doing good, he’s making money, he’s healthy, he’s breathing. He’s taking care of his kids, his dogs, he’s there. We never broke up. It’s just everybody doing their own thing. It’s like a house full of kids that turned grown and had they own kids. That’s all it is.”

lmao None of that shit is dropping next year
Exactly.
lmao. tru
i used to love the lox as a kid but now they are just wack they have taken way way to long to do another lox album and as solo acts they are never gonna blow cause they are to old they can each spit a hot 16 but cant make hit songs
nas – tupac – biggie – styles p – jada kiss
I met Jada when Melo was a Nugget and he had his shoe release party at Nike Town Downtown (when we had it), dude is SUPER down to earth and introduced himself as Jason. I don’t care how long the guys take, I’m waiting on TOP5DOA and I’ve been waiting on a lox album since my teens…..so eff it, I’ll cop it when/if it comes out. Support Hip Hop and a TRUE mc……kiss.
indeed
“He’s taking care of his kids”
You mean his reindeer.
HAHAHA…HAH.HA..no
I’d lock that three guy in the studio and drop the key. Then after for two-three weeks gimme that HDD full of new music, then enjoy your freedom. Honestly, how the fuck they couldn’t put an LP together in the past 12 years? Especially that Jadakiss is the only one who made remarkable commercial and critical success under that era, Styles did his thang but Sheek Louch… And even Jadakiss couldn’t blow up that much.
I agree .Something going on there, i suspect between Kiss and sheek
seriously, ou cant fucking drop a GROUP project in over 10 years, ofh your solo projects are lame and youre calling yourself top 5?! …………looks like another episode of …WHEN KEEPIN’ IT REAL GOES WRONG
You must be a puppy, you don’t know the reason why they couldn’t release a LOX album.
^^
I’m a puppy.
Please detail the reason why they couldn’t release a LOX album.
Thanking you in advance.
Woof.
These guys are really stuck between a rock and a hard place. Not happy with Bad Boy, they launched the Let the LOX Go campaign. They got what they wanted and that never worked out for them. Has to suck.
Why the fuck arent ppl pumped for this record? Jadas actually had a nice career, SP is THE FUCKING PHANTOM.. AND THE GHOST and Sheek doesn’t deserve to be slept on either hes inconsistant but still raw af; i mean he’s a philanthropist lol
Even as a fan I can’t believe Kiss is sticking with that album title. His catalogue is nowhere near worthy of being top 5.
Jada and styles both in my top 5 so im hyped for his new album. Yea the lox have kept everyone waiting a long time on the album but shit it aint like its dre with his detox bullshit the lox have kept putting out solo albums and mixtapes and freestyles constantly and they are some the best mc;’s in the game.
Sorry but,
Black Thought
Nas
AZ
Jay-Z
Eminem
Andre 3000
Tupac
Biggie

Half way done??? You lazy bum. You album would come out in 2010/2011????
Top 5 of what???? Where are all those classics Jada? You cant barely carry your own albums. You good for 5 songs and the rest is lame.
We Are the Streets 2, Very LAME!!!! If you are original then you come up with an other title then some sequel. This is whats wromg with hiphop no creativity! Oh Jada so the LOX did 6/7 songs for the new album! Impressive!!! 12 years in the making and still 6/7 songs!
man take that down
Styles Paniro is my favorite member of the LOX. Hands down.
IF IT’S ONLY 50% DONE, IT WILL DEFINITELY NOT COME OUT MY FEBRUARY, MARCH OR APRIL…
YOU LYING TO YOUR FANS NIGGA!!!
Jada the best out. one of the true living legends.
