Hip-Hop legends came out in full force last night (August 11) at Yankee Stadium. The line-up for Hip-Hop 50 Live boasted several iconic acts, including rap legend, Lil Kim.

Kim is often credited for opening doors for women in rap, as she was unapologetic with her sexuality and innovative with her fashion. She came out of the gate ready to win what was previously a man’s game with her debut album, Hard Core. Hard Core dropped in 1996, and boasted several game-changing hits, including the Jay-Z-assisted “Big Momma Thang” and her breakthrough single, “Crush On You,” with her fellow Junior M.A.F.I.A. member Lil Cease.

Last night, Kim reunited with Cease to perform “Crush On You.” Throughout the course of the performance, fans reminded Kim and Cease that song has been a favorite among them for years, as the two took quick breaks while rapping, and the audience joined in, filling in the blanks.

In addition to this exciting performance, we can expect to hear a lot more from Kim soon. Last month, Kim took to Instagram to share that her long-awaited autobiography, co-written by journalist Kathy Iandoli, has completed the editing process. She also revealed that legendary fashion designer Marc Jacobs wrote the foreword.

Jadakiss has been back on the forefront of the rap world recently, after The Lox had one of the most successful resurgence during their Verzuz battle with Cam’ron and Dipset this past summer. It was to the point that even LeBron James was talking about his legendary status after the battle.

Now, on his new show on Facebook Watch, The Pull Up, Jada has the chance to share some of his views on life as a veteran. The show features different guests coming through on different episodes to chop it up with Jada, and during his fifth episode, with guest rapper Lil Cease, he began to pontificate on the virtues of being healthy and taking care of yourself. He even went so far as to call the process “gangsta” and noted that he helped make working out a cool part of the rap world.

“I think healthy is gangsta,” Kiss said around the 2:20 mark during the show. “Everybody want to be tough guys and this and that, and rich. If you not healthy, you can’t be alive to spend your money. If you not healthy, you can’t enjoy the party, you can’t enjoy the perks of life, you won’t be here to see your kids graduate, to see ’em score they first touchdown, to see things like that. So health is more important than anything.”
