Jadakiss recently fired back at fans accusing him of growing up in an environment similar to the Huxtables' household on The Cosby Show. Discussing the comments he's seen on social media during a recent episode of his podcast with Fat Joe, Joe & Jada, he shut down the idea.

“Some assh*les in the comments think I grew up like the Huxtables,” Jadakiss said. “I don’t know what the f*ck is wrong with these people, but coming from where we come from, it’s a beautiful thing to have both of your parents. I know in rap, they see all these people-- Yeah, we had both of our parents. Do that mean we wasn't in the street? No. That mean our household had gold spoons? No. My moms bust her ass. My pops was on drugs. He was able to shake back. I was outside doing sh*t. I was smart in school, I was athletic, but I was outside."

He continued: "Just ask the people, just ask the cops, just ask anybody you wanna ask. But for some reason these people... you can't be standing up to your word if you have both of your parents. Are you some type of assh*le? It's a blessing to have both of your parents."

Joe agreed, going on to explain that he doesn't respect people who cut ties with their parents. “I never respected men who get a wife and get so in love with them that they forget their mother… It should never be no reason for you to cut off your moms or your parents," he said, as caught by VladTV.

Hood War Stories YT channel covers mostly gangbangers notorious for putting in work. If you peep the videos ALOT of those guys grew up with both parents.

Having both parents at home and living on the straight and narrow are not mutually exclusive. Most of my loved ones and a few friends I grew up with who’ve done time, joined sets, etc…had they pops at home.

This narrative of most real street dudes being raised only by single mothers is grossly overblown.

It's the stupidest shyt ever. Some of the most gangsta nikkas I knew had both they parents. I know 3 brothers that was all Blood nikkas. Had both they parents and they father ran a church and was a preacher. Them nikkas was wild af. My best friend was a Crip and this nikka had both his parents. nikka was wild af. shyt I had both my parents and ain't NOBODY gonna tell me I ain't grow up strugglin. Lol. Murhafukkas had it hard man. And if anyone thinks 100% of nikkas in the hood ain't have both they parents they either a cracka or ain't never grow up in the hood they self.

Hip hop fans are c00ns.
This is the culture some of you praise and worship?
A culture that attacks black normalcy and weeks to praise degeneracy, thieves, murderers, and junkies.

Smh
Isnt the thing here that they are attacking a man for acting like he didn’t go straight from catholic school to getting signed by a major label as teenagers.

Or the other scenario that he had all the means to live a good life but chose to act like TIs son.

The second is actually worse, and stans are tryna cop pleas by saying “hey he’s actually like TIs son!” :mjlol:

I think it became worse when it wasn’t just that it was two parent households but that his dad was a trader for ADM.
ADM (Archer Daniels Midland) Trader salary in the United States is an estimated $203,552 annually, or roughly $138,128 to $443,140 per year depending on experience and location

All the means to live a good life?
So he isn't living a good life?

You folks don't even make sense
He is a rapper not a criminal.
Guess what to be a artist in any genre is a shyt job you have to grind to be successful at unless you are lucky or make deals

Jadakiss has nothing to be ashamed about.

We’re talking about what he said he was doing before rap. I don’t know if you are talking about the same thing as everyone else
