The LOX are getting a well-deserved spotlight moment thanks to their epic Verzuz battle against Dipset last week. The trio, comprised of Jadakiss, Styles P, and Sheek Louch, put on a helluva show in front of a large crowd at New York’s Madison Square Garden. Days later, it was revealed they will make a surprise appearance on Kanye West’s unreleased album Donda, which was confirmed after Kanye played their collaboration during a listening session for the project. Now they’ve been honored with a key to their hometown of Yonkers.
Fresh off their battle, The Lox are receiving love from everyone, even the mayor of their hometown, Yonkers, NY. Today Mayor Mike Spano issued the rap group with the key to the city, where Styles P accepted the honor of the group’s behalf

The key was accepted by Styles P, who received it from Yonkers Mayor Mike Spano. “We recognize LOX,” Spano said during a ceremony for the key. “We’re gonna give this to you. He doesn’t need it. He could go anywhere he wants but this will confirm it all.” Styles P also shared a video of him, Jadakiss, and Sheek Louch thanking Spano and the city of Yonkers.
“We are honored, humbled and appreciative to have the keys to the city,” the caption for the video read. “@sheeklouch @jadakiss @juicesforlife @farmacyforlife and myself will keep in mind and always remember the people are the True keys to the city !we will do what’s necessary to make it a healthier .safer , vibrant city for those coming after us .. and will push to make it happen in other cities as well.”

One of the best things to emerge from the pandemic is the popular face-off livestream Verzuz, which pits two legendary artists against each other in a showdown. This week’s battle between The Lox and Dipset seemed like it would be a close one out of the gate, but The Lox, and most prominently Jadakiss, pulled out ahead to gain accolades and praise that dubbed them the clear winner. Plenty of hip-hop heads are weighing in on the impact of Jadakiss as an MC, and noted hip-hop head LeBron James had to put his own two cents in when it comes to The Lox member’s greatness.
“JADAKISS is the most UNDERRATED hip-hop artist of ALL-TIME!! MY GOODNESS,” the basketball star wrote, adding a hefty dose of emojis to his all-caps praise. “@thelox
just so [fire emoji],” he continued. “3 bullies.” Then, he shared his favorite clip from the battle, where Jadakiss launches into a freestyle over Biggie’s “Who Shot Ya” instrumental.

Considering LeBron has been an avid hip-hop listener for all of his life, and even has an executive producer credit on 2 Chainz’s also underrated Rap Or Go To The League, his praise has to be feel pretty good. Giving hip-hop legends their flowers while they’re still here is always a strong move.
NBA superstar LeBron James doesn’t just think Jadakiss is nice-nice with the wordplay. Instead, the four-time league champion has crowned The LOX‘s leader as rap’s most underrated rapper – ever.
