JADAKISS, STYLES P, SHEEK LOUCH, THE LOX: BX TO ATL W/ DC YOUNG FLY AND KARLOUS MILLER
Watch on YouTubeVideo summary
Jadakiss, Styles P, Sheek Louch, and The LOX reflect on their enduring brotherhood that predates their professional success, rooted in early days hustling in New York projects and adapting to the harsh realities of Manhattan life. Their journey involved navigating confusing geography, dealing with difficult winters, and mastering the craft of freestyle rap alongside legends like Ghostface Killah. This deep bond allowed them to challenge North/South hip-hop stereotypes through collaboration, sharing stories of growing up smoking specific types of weed in Texas while contending with strict state laws that contrasted sharply with Georgia's misdemeanor penalties. These shared experiences, from visiting iconic locations like Coney Island to preparing meticulously for rap battles rather than relying on improvisation, have defined their thirty-year career and solidified their status as a unique force in the industry.
The group pays tribute to hip-hop icons such as DMX and The Notorious B.I.G., recalling DMX's special connection with his dogs and Biggie's down-to-earth nature despite his immense fame. Their discussions often touch upon the challenges of longevity in music compared to sports, highlighting how their legacy was shaped by recording sessions with Jay-Z that produced tracks like "Money, Power & Respect" and "Last Day," as well as touring experiences where entire families traveled together on events like the "No Way Out" tour. These memories are interwoven with humorous anecdotes about food preferences, particularly fried chicken recipes, illustrating how their camaraderie extends beyond music into everyday life and cultural history.
Looking toward the future, the artists discuss an unprecedented incident at a baseball stadium where they maintained a peaceful atmosphere for hours during a delay, an event they believe cannot be replicated by any other artist. They also address the logistics of upcoming events like South by Southwest, noting potential regulatory hurdles in Texas that might affect travel plans similar to those of LeBron James. The conversation concludes with promotional details for their documentary, which is currently subject to a bidding war for its release platform, and an announcement of their independent streaming service, Channel 85. Loyal supporters can access exclusive content and merchandise deals with a twenty percent discount for six months by using the code "85enter," while professional booking inquiries are directed to a specific email address rather than direct messages.

you y'all know you you ping ponging off
the energy right
>> of each other. And one thing we all none
of us are I never came to the studio to
be third behind these [ __ ]
>> It happens. It happens and we just you
just live with it. So it's a lot of
nights where I'm like
>> yeah that happened and it happens and
it's you that's what that's what we good
at cuz everything they say is motivating
me to say something. So there's a lot of
times I don't even want to say anything
and then what they saying
it it sparks something. So it's like
that's
>> RB groups. One [ __ ] is just a Yeah,
baby. Come get in the shower with
>> I always want to be that [ __ ] in the
group.
>> I want to be basic.
>> You want to be blue

>> You know what I'm saying?
>> Y'all ever had a [ __ ] try to get in the
group
>> like a fourth member? Now, we had a lot
of honorable mentions, but nobody is you
can't get in.
>> Oh, called the Trinity.
>> I really I really do want to know this
cuz of course, like you said, y'all was
brothers before y'all signed. Like, how
was it growing up? Before you before you
signed, like before you realized like,
oh, this [ __ ] going to pop out with my
brothers.
>> We used to speak to each other every
night.
We would write Robs,
>> call each other like, "Listen to this,
listen to this,
>> listen to this, this, that, and we we
took the real journey like um working
with different DJs in the hood."
>> Mhm.
>> Then finally going to studios and doing
it, learning how to track your songs and
do it the right way till we made the
right demo that we was able to pass that
Mary Jay, you know what I mean? We was
we started from
>> DJs in the hood. Two turn one turn. I
started from one turntable to somebody
that had real equipment and then making
them tapes in the hood that [ __ ]
different [ __ ] cribs.
>> Find out who had know what I mean? Yo,
come to our crib.
>> Then we start making tapes trying to
structure them. Then we took it to the
studio. Then we made the demos. Then you
know what I mean? We didn't skip the
process at all. We went all the way from
the flour, the water, the milk, the
eggs.
>> We had to do all of that. We wasn't to
skip the line at all. We
>> we was almost signed a million times,
>> right?
>> And it didn't happen, but we we stayed
down. You know what I'm saying?
>> We on fire with like the Clue mixtapz
and all that kind of [ __ ] back then. But
it really kicked in with me that like,
yo, we here now. I always say this is
with the Benjamins.
>> That's when that [ __ ] was like, oh [ __ ]
this is like different.
>> It was a different level of
>> We caught a different wave. Hell
>> yeah. That [ __ ] hit it. That's a
different tax bracket that Benj
playing that [ __ ]
>> moves in everywhere.
>> They was playing it millions.
>> That [ __ ]
took about two months for you to hear
the whole song.
>> But who who you said didn't [ __ ] with
the beat initially?
>> Me and Luke.
>> Yeah. He was like,
>> we didn't like it.
>> We'll pass.
>> Buff was almost finished with the No Way
Out. I think that was one of the last
songs. He like, "Yo, we need y'all to
finish this." We like, "Nah, we don't
like that shit."
And then I think like the first few
times he's like, "All right, let's
leave." Then when it was time to really
wrap the album up, he's like, "Yo, this
and we like
>> we really
everybody in the ring is going crazy
that way."
>> But look, everybody's like, "This [ __ ]
is crazy. It's a James Brown sample. Is
this that?" We like, "No, I don't really
like that shit."
>> But that we was young, radical.
You know that's the shows the difference
of why he is who he is to this day cuz
he had to ear him Derek Angeli.
>> Yeah.
>> They knew. They knew what that was. We
didn't but we listened and thank the
Lord.
>> You said that was that lifechanging
moment.
>> Big facts. Financially all everything.
>> When did it hit you?
>> When you went to the bank.
>> No, no, no, no, no. Like Flex was
playing that. Flex was playing that.
Yeah, it was like what Kid said, that
[ __ ] played like 30 times a night like
like on back to back to back. I was
like, "Yo, this is crazy."
>> For months.
>> For months, though. It was like a long
lasting joint.
>> That's hard.
>> You know, you know, I'm real big on
infrastructure.
>> Yeah.
>> And structure.
>> Yeah.
>> The locks is his own group, but y'all
like a subsidiary up under the Rough
Rider.
>> Absolutely.
>> And cuz DMX, bro, he the OG RP to go.
>> That's how we started,
>> right? You know what I mean? Rough is
our story is iller than ill cuz X ex X
got with Rough Riders and came to put us
on. Then we got the deal with Bad Boy
before X
>> then. But we was still rocking, doing
mixtapz, doing freestyles, doing [ __ ]
Then they got the deal with Rough
Riders, Death Jam and De and they was
rocking so hard with X they called
Rough riders in the folk. So we got out
of Bad Boy and went back home. They was
always our managers while we was on Bad
Boy and they was our family already. So

reg that's what that's where we came
from.

rappers that the South felt like [ __ ]
with the South for real. Y'all always
would like appear on like mixtapes and
we'll see y'all [ __ ] with artists
from the South. When did y'all realize
y'all had that impact in the South?

album,

with all we [ __ ] with all of the music
anyway. So when anybody call us, we

against organized
to have like weekends. We We knew about
the A lot. We went down here.
>> So where did that stigma come from? Like
the North don't [ __ ] with the South or
the South.
>> I think some media people create the to
have something to talk about, right?
>> But if you know about it, most most of
our [ __ ] mothers and fathers came
from LA. That's what's stupid about
hip-hop cuz that's all that's all that
happens is
>> New York [ __ ] east coast [ __ ] get
sent to the south for the summer and
vice versa.
>> So like you know and there's always a
cousin from the south of New York from
the summer. So
>> Larry Bird the Cooper like that [ __ ] is
that [ __ ] is
>> that [ __ ] is programming.
>> DC Fly ain't as funny as doesn't they
don't do that with John Candy,
>> right?
>> And you know what I mean?
Yeah. That's [ __ ] Like, you know what I
mean? Even in our culture,
>> you see they put five dope entertainers
or five dope actors, one got to go.
Like, you know what I'm saying? That's
>> never see that.
>> You don't see that [ __ ] in no other
culture. Why you putting up why you
putting up all the great saying one got
to go?
>> That's a [ __ ] That's programming is
what most people don't understand. A lot
of people got to
>> the the kind of na na na. I got to be
better than you. We got to do this. I
can't get along with you. And that's
what [ __ ] [ __ ] up. But like when you got
good communication and you get
somewhere. Everybody know that from
personal experiences. Take [ __ ] outside
of the me
and him we chop it up just on some [ __ ]
just on like what you said OG. Like what
you said young boy like how you doing
it. That's like that don't got nothing
to do with where we from how we doing
it. It got to do with just
>> the [ __ ] you see you respect and the
energy you feel.
>> So but when media and people get
involved and it get things territorial.
People say certain [ __ ]
>> This is when we get to this point.
>> That's when you know you successful.
When you
>> when you doing good, they start doing
them type of post. One got to go and

don't really take time. We've been
connected with greatness from day one.
So, it shows why we work hard, why like
to to actually be able I was I was
speaking with uh my son a few couple
months ago. He's like a big X and you
know, just from how you guys do a show,
he was like, "You guys stole a [ __ ]
rip." He said the show was incredible
and just to hear like that you've worked
with them and known that it's like
that's a beautiful [ __ ] thing. This
is it's legend. Like you said we we
watching a documentary. We got Mary Mary
Blah talking about this Joe like you
know what I mean? Uh X and it's just a
testament to the work we've put in over
the years and how much greatness we have

coming off, we was super hot in the
street doing the mixtapz. We was on We
was doing some spot dates
just off the clue tapes and um
probably had a show in North Carolina
somewhere. We landed back in in
LaGuardia
and we got the call back then it was
still probably two ways of T-Mobile
sidekicks or something
>> and they like yo Hov Hov want y'all come
to the studio. Yeah.
>> Like cool.
>> You know what I mean? We going to go
home,

Um, and everybody went except Stous
Styles and Jay-Z and then later they

got to go to the studio, right? Do you
think we're going to leave town or you

He might have it might I don't know who
else could
make the doors open at 6:00
and don't go on stage to 12:00 or 12:30
and finish at 3:00 or 3:30 whenever he
finished and everything
nothing everything it didn't go as
planned but it still the show went on
and I appreciate it still big
>> big stars came out. So
somewhere in the future, you got to see
that documented. I know they going to do
something with that cuz that was a a
moment in hip hop that could never
happen with no other artist anybody you
could think of.
>> Facts.
>> And never have a baseball stadium filled
up. Something happened at the door. They
pause it for four or five hours. Yes,
sir. The show then goes on and then
everybody that [ __ ] was incredible. And
it was like we kept I was next I was
with OG one for a lot of the time while
the while the delay was happening and he
had somebody by the door that was
calling them in real time and like
it's not it's no time is it don't look
like it's going to happen anytime soon.
Then that turned into one hour to two
hours. Then I'm like, "Yo, OG like,
nah."
And then eventually Ho came out. So that
right there would never happen. A
baseball stadium, a black rapper,
4hour delay, nobody leave, nobody get
killed, hung, stabbed, none of that. And
the show goes on perfectly.
>> [ __ ]
>> That was incredible.
>> I wish I knew how to do online.

freestyle, he gonna tell us exactly what
happened in them four hours during that
delay.
