The Lox‘s standout once revealed he “made a lot of money” dissing 50 Cent during their infamous rap feud. Now, the two former rivals are poised to turn profits together, teaming up for an exciting venture centered on the Yonkers rapper’s coffee brand, Kiss Café. 

Launched in 2022 by Jadakiss, his father Bob Phillips, and his son Jaewon Phillips, Kiss Café is rooted in a family legacy. Bob Phillips has worked in the coffee industry since 1977, bringing decades of expertise to the brand. Meanwhile, 50 Cent, a major investor in Shreveport, Louisiana, has been transforming the city with significant real estate acquisitions, including numerous downtown properties. As part of his revitalization plans, 50 Cent is calling on Jadakiss to open the first brick-and-mortar Kiss Café in the city. 

On Monday (December 2), 50 Cent took to Instagram to share his vision, tagging Jadakiss and declaring, “It’s a go @jadakiss. SHREVEPORT is ready let’s get it.” Jadakiss responded enthusiastically, writing, “I’m waiting on YOU.” 

This partnership aligns with 50 Cent’s ambitious efforts in Shreveport. He has poured millions into the city as part of a three-phase revitalization strategy, which began with purchasing and upgrading nearly two dozen properties downtown. Adding a Kiss Café to the mix could further cement his impact on the region while fulfilling a long-held dream for Jadakiss’ family. 

Bob Phillips expressed his hope for a physical Kiss Café location during an appearance on Drink Champs with his son. Reflecting on the brand’s future, he shared, “One day, we’d like to franchise and partner up to have brick-and-mortar Kiss Cafés. That’s the ultimate goal.” While Phillips admitted he wasn’t sure he’d live to see it happen, the collaboration with 50 Cent could make that dream a reality. 

The union of Jadakiss’ family passion for coffee and 50 Cent’s entrepreneurial vision could mark a new chapter for both the brand and the city of Shreveport. From rap battles to business ventures, these two icons are proving that success tastes even sweeter when it’s brewed together.
