The industry may be designed to keep the artist in debt, but Jadakiss is still finding a way to give back. To help celebrate the holidays, the New York sultan of sixteens has teamed up with the York Street Project, a Jersey City, NJ shelter for homeless women and children. On Monday (Dec. 22), Jada stopped by York Street, greeting residents and their children.
Joining in on the cause was a local McDonalds with whom Jadakiss has previously partnered to help those less fortunate. On Monday, the rapper–who was greeted by raucous cheers–passed out toys to each of the approximately 50 children who live at York Street. “I’m fortunate to be a part of this,” he said. “It’s a no-brainer. When you can bring a smile to a baby’s face or a toddler or a single mother, or just somebody in need, that’s always a beautiful thing.”
