Rapper Jadakiss and Biggie Smalls have a long history dating back to Bad Boy collaborations. Those collaborations are “All About The Benjamins,” “Last Day,” and “You’ll See.”
In addition, the rapper continues his legacy by collaborating with the next generation and his late friend.
An Apparel Brand Partners With Rapper Jadakiss And Many Other Artists
In a brand new partnership with StyledByTMark, apparel brand New Balance teamed rapper Jadakiss up with his oldest son Jaewon and Biggie’s only son CJ Wallace. Also, this New York-based fashion company included other artists from New York. Such as Smoke DZA, Cory Gunz, etc., in their Good Friday collection.
On Friday (Apr. 15), T Mark shared several pictures on his Instagram account, visibly proud of the event.
“The Bigger The Team The Bigger The Dream,” he wrote.
Furthermore, StyledByTMark launched its seasonally appropriate collection on Friday. The collection includes several pieces suitable for winter and early spring on the upper East Coast. The items include hoodies, sweatpants, hats, pins, socks, and shorts. The rapper’s second collaboration with New Balance follows his appearance in 2017 with Fabolous’ 247 Luxe sneakers.
2021 Verzuz
In his 2021 Verzuz victory with The LOX over Dipset, Jada has earned his due praise from his Hip Hop peers. It has also become a major effect on how numerous rappers form their bars.
Pusha T says Kiss’ verse on The LOX‘s “Chest 2 Chest (Freestyle)” helped him feel at ease on the mic. The statement was made in an interview with Supreme’s new creative director, Tremaine Emory, for Interview Magazine.
“Jada has one of the most poignant verses I’ve ever heard,” he said. “‘It’s a shame he could rhyme n**ga love crime/Every late night he outside with the nine/You ain’t got chips, fuck the world/You got chips, you could fuck the next man’s girl/Sounds harsh but they been ripped apart my world.’
“When Jada spit that bar, that’s when I was like, wait a minute, you can be vulnerable in rap and be dope. Because at that point everyone was such a superhero. Nobody ever lost. I’d never heard anyone admit defeat in rap.”
