The Lox
In 2020, The LOX made a remarkable reappearance with their fourth studio album Living Off Xperience, a project that proves that good old hip-hop never goes out of style. Sheek Louch, Styles P, and Jadakiss are the iconic hip-hop trio from Yonkers, New York.
During their heyday in the 90s, some of their most well-known tracks included “Money, Power, and Respect,” “If You Think I’m Jiggy,” and “Ryde or Die, B****.” Another masterwork, The LOX’s heartfelt multi-platinum tribute to Notorious B.I.G., “We’ll Always Love Big Poppa,” brought them to global reach in 1997. The song, which paid homage to Biggie’s life, caught his spirit and catapulted The LOX into the public limelight as a group to explore.
The LOX’s first full-length album, Money, Power, and Respect, released in 1998, debuted at number three on the Billboard 200. Soon after, they established a strong musical match with Ruff Ryders, DMX’s manager at the time, which resulted in another successful album release, We Are the Streets, in 2000. Since then, the trio has released a slew of albums, but each on their own.
Although The LOX never truly disbanded, their following album, Filthy America…It’s Beautiful, was released 16 years later, marking a musical milestone. The LOX has now become rap’s senior; nonetheless, they continue to provide the same 90s soulful energy that the streets want. Check out “NY 90s,” their most recent remastered single here.
