There is trouble in Yonkers, my friends.

[QuietTruth]

I know you heard about the beef between J-Hood and Sheek Louch of D-Block. Now, I heard that Hood is off the Block and in the city taking business meetings with a number or labels that have expressed interest in signing him. Now, I have heard that there has been friction, between these two on a couple of occasions. This all came to a head as Sheek is preparing his new album on Koch and Hood still kind of waiting for his to drop. Somebody said this to me:

"Now J-Hood has been the definition of loyalty throughout his tenure with the label, even though they've been shunning his project since he came in the game right around the time Jadakiss 1st solo LP, Kiss of Death was released."

Hood's Tales from the Hood has been pushed back more than Hulk Hogan's wig. I heard that J-Hood's CD features like a crapload of acts like Lil Wayne, Young Jeezy, T.I, Freeway, Loon, Jae Millz, Stack Bundles, Juelz Santana, Jim Jones, and Fabolous. Here is a lil' more info:

This story has a lil more weight than these typical industry conflicts. Hood has been through some colorful times in his past 5 years waiting in the wings. What people dont know is this kid is still chasing his dream. He still write rhymes from a 2 bedroom apt he shares with his mother and 2 sisters, after they relocated from a shelter they were forced to live in when their previous apartment building burned down. It gets real personal from here but the gist of it is basically, there's a lotta pain being endured by someone who only wants a chance to do what everybody with a record deal is suppose to do- release a record.

Last but not least – here come the diss records! Both Sheek Louch and J-Hood have been in the studio all week recording diss records against each other, I heard. There is a song called "Last of a Dying Breed" by J-Hood – there are some words on it. I don't know if we'll really see this pop off like G-Unit/BWS/Murder Inc, but the underground will certainly enjoy the lyrical fireworks if it ever gets to that.

that's fuckin wack...hood should get his due man...i don't really follow n.y. music to closely, but i know d-block (ofcourse) and hood (from fans i know of d-block) always gets mad respect, and is talked of as one of the best members...

It's fucked up he been waitin that long 2 release his record when there garbage rapper (sheek) has released like 2-3 albums or whatever (im sorry 4 the sheek fans, but from what i've heard he don't hold a candle 2 the other members)...what's even more fucked up, is dude is still living in the ghetto, and he got an album waiting to be released, with appearances from hiphop heavyweights such as Jeezy, Tip, Wayne and so on

Like the article said, he a loyal ass nigga. He puts out heat after heat. Sheek is an aight rapper but J Hood is beyond him no doubt. J deserves his shine, like, now.

And if homebody gots to leave, than so be it I suppose even though that's upsetting. He's D-Block to the fullest.

[QuietTruth]

Heard he sat down wit G-unit too. That's a 'nahhhhhhhh' though.

"Now J-Hood has been the definition of loyalty throughout his tenure with the label, even though they've been shunning his project since he came in the game right around the time Jadakiss 1st solo LP, Kiss of Death was released."

J-Hood OFFICIALLY leaves D-Block, rapper releases a statement

'It has come to my attention that multiple rumors are emerging and circulating around the internet and the streets. So I will use this announcement to clarify these statements.
Around 3 ˝ weeks ago I asked to be released from the label I've been signed to. After that occurrence all legal procedures have been properly handled in accordance. Basically there's an instance in which we all run out of patience and take upon action to better our situation. I think I've been loyal since the beginning to the label and the individuals that run it. I have devoted six years of my life to making our movement prosper with no realistic reward or success, knowing my worth and what I'm capable of.

If for any reason I happen to fail to accomplish what I intend to which is be successful, I feel more comfortable knowing it will be from a decision I made and not one that was made by the next man. The chain that supposedly was taken away from me is and has been in my possession since it was purchased but I refuse to wear it because I have mentally moved on, meaning I'd rather have no type of affiliation with D-Block at all. I'm past that point in my life I have a whole new focus, which is concentrating on making my new movement as strong and successful as possible.

And for the record the chain was not giving to me by the label but instead purchased by me, so picture me letting someone take it away from me. To put everything in perspective I will be releasing multiple freestyles and songs on various mixtapes under my own company. So now that I have clarified the situation. I will give you a glimpse of what's to come. I will be signed to my own label O.D.G Ent. (On Da Grind) as of next week. Last but not least you can log on to YouTube.com to see the five-minute video interview of me showing the chain and actual release form. Say goodbye to D-Block and say hello to ODG!'
