 Inter­na­tion­al hip hop legends The LOX are set to cel­eb­rate 50 years of hip hop with their legions of Lon­don fans this Spring, with the announce­ment of a one-off show at Indigo at the O2 on Wed­nes­day 17th May. Tick­ets go on Ven­ue pre-sale Wed­nes­day 15th March 11am and Gen­er­al sale Fri­day 17th March at 11am.

Jadakiss of The Lox said “The LOX are about show­man­ship, broth­er­hood and the craft. We love bring­ing our show to the UK, and we know how much y’all love hip hop in Lon­don. It’s gonna be spe­cial to cel­eb­rate 50 years of hip hop with you Lon­don, are you ready for The LOX? ”

Com­prised of Sheek Louch, Styles P, and Jadakiss, The LOX entered the scene in 1997, after Mary J. Blige passed on their mix­tape to Sean “P. Diddy” Combs. They col­lab­or­ated on the single ‘It’s All About The Ben­jamins’, gar­ner­ing the trio world­wide atten­tion. The debut album ‘Money, Power & Respect’ (1998) went plat­in­um, peak­ing at #3 on the Bill­board 200 chart and #1 on Top R&B/Hip-hop Albums. The fol­low-up gold album ‘We Are The Streets’ peaked at #5 on the Bill­board 200 chart and #2 on Top R&B/Hip-hop Albums. Mean­while Sheek Louch, Styles P, and Jadakiss each rose to indi­vidu­al suc­cesses with crit­ic­ally acclaimed solo albums, busi­nesses and tours. In 2014, ‘The Trin­ity EP’ was released, with the group selling out ven­ues across the US, Canada and the UK, and in 2016, in part­ner­ship with Roc Nation, The LOX released ‘Filthy Amer­ica… It’s Beau­ti­ful’.

In 2020, The LOX released fourth stu­dio album ‘Liv­ing Off Xper­i­ence’. In 2021, The LOX made his­tory squar­ing off with The Dip­lo­mats, aka Dip­set, in the most legendary VERZUZ of all time, argu­ably the most vir­al music moment that year.  Most recently, The LOX graced the stage of the 2023 Grammy Awards to mark 50 years of hip hop, along­side fel­low icons includ­ing Questlove, Meth­od Man, Pub­lic Enemy, Missy Elli­ot, Busta Rhymes, Run DMC, Ice‑T and Queen Lati­fah. With some of their biggest tunes ready to drop live in Lon­don, like ‘Ryde Or Die B****’, ‘All For The Love’, ‘Money, Power & Respect’ and ‘Recog­nize’, The LOX’s return to the Cap­it­al city is highly anti­cip­ated.
