10/23/07 - The LOX aren’t on Def Jam

Gayme is a Queer · 10-23-2007, 02:09 PM

Contrary to rumor, The LOX are currently without a major label deal. “Nah, not as the group,” Styles P clarified to HipHopDX.com late yesterday. “False rumors. ‘Kiss just took [a solo deal with Def Jam]. He gonna finish [his] joint up. And then when we finish making [The LOX] album, we’ll decide on [a label].”

As for how soon Styles, Sheek and Jadakiss will be signing on the dotted line with somebody, there doesn’t appear to be any rush. “We not sweating it,” says Styles. “We just recording right now. Our first priority is really making solid music. And after we make the solid music, we’ll go where we wanna go.”
While rumors just recently surfaced regarding The LOX label home, there has long been a rumored title for the group’s third album, Live, Suffer, Celebrate.

But according to Styles, that title may too prove to be just a rumor. “Might be [called that], might change,” he says of the album’s title. “We doing so much new music, so I dunno. The energy might change.”

Although the title to the next LOX album isn’t set in stone yet, Styles can confirm some of the A-list beatmakers who are helming the boards for the project. “As The LOX we gotta get a Premo joint,” he says. “I’m on Premo’s heels right now.” In addition to securing heat from the man who laced “Recognize” on the group’s last full-length, 2000’s We Are The Streets, The LOX have also clocked studio time with Pete Rock, Alchemist, and Swizz Beatz for their junior effort.

It should be a busy ’08 for the Yonkers crew, with Jadakiss’ Def Jam debut tentatively dropping first quarter and Styles and crew aiming to drop the new LOX album mid-year.

Stay tuned to HipHopDX for our feature with Styles P coming soon.

puffy is an asshole for denying these classic mc's their right to perform on a good label
if you ask me, puffy shoulda made Bad Boy the biggest label ever, and he coulda done it imo

he had Lil Kim, LOX, Mase, himself, 112, BIG's work, Junior M.A.F.I.A., Black Rob and more that coulda made the label big on its own
but he chased all them dudes away by denying them an album drop

that shit fucks me up when I think about it
its like Suge and Deathrow... coulda been best ever but lacked something vital
