Music career

Born in Corona, Queens, and raised in on Groshon Ave in Yonkers, Styles began rapping with Jadakiss, Kasaan and Sheek in 1994, as they all grew up in the same Yonkers, New York neighborhood. They eventually signed to Bad Boy Records, formed the rap group called "THE LOX" which stands for "Living Off Xperience", and recorded songs with Notorious B.I.G., Sean Combs and Darren Blackburn. In 1998, The Lox released Money, Power & Respectw/ the hit song "Money, Power, Respect" feat. fellow Bad Boy, "Lil Kim" and Ruff Ryder Earl "DMX" Simmons. Soon thereafter, Styles P led the Lox on the now infamous quest to leave Bad Boy Records. When they were finally released, the Lox signed to Interscope. Shortly thereafter, a new Lox album and Jadakiss' solo album Kiss Tha Game Goodbye were released.

Disputes

In 2001, Jadakiss implied in a Source Magazine interview that Philadelphia rappers were copying his style. Beanie Sigel of Roc-A-Fella fame took offense to this statement and the two released battle tracks aimed at each other. Styles along with the Lox released a freestyle dissing Beanie Siegel, Freeway, Jay-Z and the whole Roc-a-Fella.

Styles P, as a member of D-Block, is currently playing a leading role in D-Block's battle with 50 Cent. The origins and scope of the conflict are somewhat complex: In late 2004, Ja Rule, a rap artist with a history of feuds between himself and 50 Cent released an album entitled R.U.L.E.. A particular track on the album (New York) featured D-Block artist Jadakiss. 50 cents may refer to 50 subunits of currencies where the subunit is called a cent. ... Jeffrey Atkins (born February 29, 1976), better known by his stage name Ja Rule is an American rapper from Hollis, Queens, New York City, New York, United States. ... 50 cents may refer to 50 subunits of currencies where the subunit is called a cent. ...

Phillips |Origin = Yonkers, New York |Born = [[May 27} ]] 1975 ) Jayson T. Phillips (born May 27, 1975), also known by his stage name Jadakiss, is an American rapper. ...

50 Cent, claiming that he interpreted Jadakiss' presence on the R.U.L.E. album as a personal attack, responded by mildly -- albeit in a very widespread manner given the distribution of his album -- dissing Jadakiss in his 2005 album The Massacre on the track Piggy Bank.

Thus ensued a conflict between D-Block and G-Unit, into which Styles P was rapidly drawn. Each of his mixtapes mentioned at the end of this article increasingly focus on the growing tension between the two groups of rappers -- indeed, the move from subliminal references to outright "disses" seems to have been completed by the fall of 2005 as evidenced by his most recent mixtape Ghost in the Machine, which features many tracks directly referring to 50 Cent, including an aptly named "Invite to 50" where 50 Cent is challenged to a physical confrontation. (Also "Snitching 101" and "Pussy Niggas" among others) G-Unit is a rap group which consists of 50 Cent, Lloyd Banks, Tony Yayo, Young Buck, (The) Game, R & B singer Olivia and, most recently, Spider Loc. ... 50 cents may refer to 50 subunits of currencies where the subunit is called a cent. ...

Outside of his own mixtapes, Styles P's best-known contributions to the conflict can be found in verses on the song "Kiss Your Ass Goodbye", featured on several mixtapes as well as the 2005 Sheek Louch album After Taxes and, most recently (February 2006), on the diss track "Ms Jackson", featured on the Sheek Louch mixtape Still A Wolf. Sean D. Jacobs (born November 9, 1976 in Brooklyn, New York), better known as Sheek Louch, is a rapper and member of D-Block, the group formerly known as The Lox, which includes Jadakiss and Styles P.

Styles also recently addressed the situation regarding the depature young rapper J-Hood from the D-Block stable.

Time is Money

The album has had its release date modified on more than one occasion: original release dates in the spring of 2005 were missed and scheduled releases within the summer months were similarly revised. Again, in the fall of 2005, the album was delayed from an October to a November date. Time is Money was finally released on December 19th, 2006. [1].

The album's supposed lead single, "I'm Black" received a fair amount of radio play last year, as did the single "Can You Believe It" featuring Akon, for which a video was shot. The release boasts guest appearances by the late Gerald Levert, Akon, Jagged Edge, Jae Hood, Floetry's Marsha Ambrosius, Rashad, Talib Kweli and The Lox. The album's production will be handled by hit makers Scott Storch and Swizz Beatz among others.

Signing to Koch Records

In March of 2007 Koch officially announced the signing of esteemed lyricist Styles P. In an Official Koch Statement it was written "KOCH Records is thrilled to announce the addition of Styles P to its burgeoning hip-hop roster". KOCH Records General Manager and Executive VP Alan Grunblatt added, “Styles is THE perfect KOCH Urban artist. He has a huge fanbase and is ready to go to the next level.
