Hip-hop has been forever changed by Jadakiss and The LOX, and a new mural in The Bronx honors these Yonkers superstars.
Adaluz The Artist began the event with a mural depicting Jadakiss, Styles P, and Sheek Louch in The Bronx. The commemoration of 50 years of hip hop will be marked by the painting of murals across NYC throughout 2023.
“First mural of 2023 is finally finished,” he wrote. “In dedication of the 50th anniversary of Hip-Hop. Wanted to give @sheeklouch @stylesp @jadakiss and @thelox their flowers. I grew up listening to these guys so I’m honored to have painted this wall.
“I want to thank @hardhat_n_highheels and @maya.hatcher.3 for the opportunity to paint their wall located at 944 rogers place bronx ny. I know that White Castles parking lot is gonna be [fire]. We’re looking for more sponsors and walls in each borough to put up our Hip-Hop pioneers. God is great!”
Despite the fact that Jada hasn’t yet visited the mural, Darrin “Dee” Dean showed Kiss the piece of art over FaceTime, and Kiss was in awe. Jadakiss is heard giving his seal of approval, adding, “That stuff is mean.”
As a member of the Legendz of the Streetz Tour, which also includes Jeezy, T.I., and other artists, Jadakiss is now on the road. This coming weekend (February 18), the star-studded cast will attack Birmingham, Alabama, before moving on to Cleveland, Nashville, and Atlanta during the first week of March.
