The Jadakiss Interview

T5DOA Jadakiss made his way to the No Jumper podcast and we couldn't be any happier! He and Adam shared a nerdy, funny and candid conversation around his latest album 'Ignatius' in homage to his late friend Maurice “Icepick Jay” Jackson. They also talked about staying healthy, his beginnings, up and coming artists and the future of Def Jam.

Jada’s the definition of a true artist, not trying to sell you on nothing just being himself & being effortlessly dope. What made the verzuz dope more then anything was pure hip-hop was on display and the young generation got to witness, no gimmick’s, no antics’ just pure rap music with MC’s sharpening there sword on premium television with the world tuned in.
