So I'm hardly in Music but I figured this thread was needed to give a break to all the Wayne/Gucci/whoever else posts..

Been a fan of the Lox since '97 listening to "It's all About the Benjamins"..It kills me that people don't mention them enough when itcomes to rap favorites, especially Jada. Guess that's all opinion..

Anyway, post up your fave album, verse, member, Kool-Aid flavor. Just show love to the 3-Man Army..

Culprits:
Jadakiss

For anyone looking to be "put on", here's some stuff to check out..

The LOX- Money, Power, Respect
B0000039QI.jpg


The LOX's first official release in 1998 on Bad Boy Records. The first single was "If You Think I'm Jiggy" followed by the titletrack a few months later. This would be the first and last album on BB records due to "conflicting tastes" between LOX and Puffy..
Standout tracks: "Livin' the Life", "Not To Be @%$@*$ With", "Everybody Wanna Rat", "I Wanna Thank You"

The LOX- We Are The Streets

514TCST2RNL._SL500_AA240_.jpg

The LOX's second official release, the first album on their new deal with Ruff Ryders in 2000. Official singles Include "Ryde or Die Chick" & "Wild Out"..LOX would go on to appear on all three Ruff Ryder Compilations and Redemption mixtapes..
Standout Tracks: "+$@@ You", "Can I Live", "Blood Pressure", "Scream L.O.X.", "Y'all @%$@*$ Up Now"
Overall I think WRTS is better than MPR. The Pop music/mainstream undertones of Puffy's production are gone. WRTS shows the grit that LOX were so proud of..But that's just my opinion.

Individual works
All members have done plenty of solo projects & tracks, but I'll just list one per member to save some time..

Jadakiss- Kiss Tha Game Goodbye(2001)
00606949301125_S.jpg

Jada's first solo project, very very dope. Singles include "Knock Yourself Out" & "We Gon Make it"
Standout tracks: "Jada's Got a Gun", "Show Discipline ft. Nas"," None of Ya'll Betta ft. LOX"
Definitely my fave official Jada release, heavily played to this day. Other albums include "Kiss of Death(2004)" & most recently"The Last Kiss"..

Styles P- A Gangster and a Gentleman(2002)
Styles+P.+-+A+Gangster+And+A+Gentleman.jpg

Styles P's solo debut. Very solid record and should be coupled w/his under appreciated 2nd release Time is Money". Singles from AG&aG include "Daddy get That Cash", "My Life" & "Good Times"
Standout Tracks: "A Gangster & a Gentleman", "I'm a Ruff Ryder ft. Jadakiss", "We Thugs ft. The LOX", "Black Magic"

Sheek Louch- Walk Witt me (2003)
Sheek+Louch+-+Walk+Witt+Me.jpg

Guess I'm just rolling w/debut albums here..Most notable single would be "Might D-Block (2Gunz Up)"
Standout Tracks: "For You" "In/Out ft. Styles P" "Don't mean Nuthin' ft. Jadakiss, J-Hood"
Sheek is a busy dude, with 4 solo albums under his belt. They are "After Taxes(2005)", "Silverback Gorilla(2008)" & this year's "Life on D-Block"

Mixtapes
Nowadays you can find the LOX/D-Block on numerous mixtapes. It's ridiculous how many freestyles, tracks, collabs they have done. Then again I wouldn't expect less from them after a decade & a half..If you're looking to finally show this group some love then here a few suggestions..

Jadakiss- The Champ is Here(2004)

Styles P- Ghost in the Shell(2005)

[h2]Sheek Louch Confirms The Next L.O.X. Album To Be On Bad Boy[/h2]

Since the resolution of famed 2005 on-air war of words between Diddy and former proteges The L.O.X., there have been reunion discussions. As previous Bad Boy artists such as Craig Mack and Ma$e had returned for remixes and fruitless new recording contracts, Sheek Louch recently told On-Air Idiots that they return to their first home.
After Jadakiss revealed in October that Diddy had offered a one-album deal, Sheek said the group was signing, with hopes of a "top of year" 2010 album. "I would love for it to come then, we're working actually with Puff, with Sean Combs. We working out that. Puff Daddy, we working that out. We working that out and hopefully it goes down."

Through Bad Boy's new distribution deal with Interscope, the reunion would also allow The L.O.X. to fulfill contract obligations with the label that released their 2000 sophomore album. The Ruff Ryders and D-Block imprints are also slated to be involved.

HipHopDX will keep you posted.



There's been speculation of a Bad Boy reunion..Long as we get a new LOX album, I'm happy *hat*...

Styles P is like the present day G Rap imo..im more a fan of the mixtapes than anything but L.O.X is L.O.X..

Broken Safety!!! mixtape
 
Man I remember being in high school and just waiting to hear what Jada was gonna say next on every new mixtape that dropped. To be honest, that feeling hasnever left. These boys will always be appreciated. I'm looking foward to the new album.

Listening to Styles P's Broken Safety while I'm writin this.
 
I always felt Sheek was the weakest link and cuz they're a group it's preventing a Jada n Styles classic from dropping.

Can't wait til the next Styles album

Sheek just be in his own world..Jada/Styles collabs are always classic though.

"Shoot Outs" *hat**hat*

Another dope mixtape, Delox..Lox spittin' over Dre's beats, a lot of tracks sound even better than the original beat (not surprising). Smoothmixing, just Dopeness!
