Jadakiss Explains How Beating Dipset In 'Verzuz' Made Him Richer

by Daryl Nelson

The Lox put a hurting on Dipset last year when the two groups faced each other in a Verzuz battle. 

In fact, the win was so convincing, which had a lot to do with the Lox's Jadakiss, the raspy-voiced rapper benefited from it financially.

"My numbers went up for hostings and walk-throughs, for shows, and TV cameos,” Jada told Complex. “Just in general my numbers went up. It also showed Def Jam that they got to do the right thing [and] restructure my contract. It really showed the world my true worth, what I can do ... More artists should prep for Verzuz and take it serious. It’s a celebration. It’s somewhat of a battle and you’ve got to take it serious. You show your craftsmanship, as well as display your catalog ... We really put it like a boxing match. They’re going to come with these missiles, so we’ve got to have missiles to launch back.”

Any reaction to Jada saying Verzuz made him richer?
