D-Block Preps New Album

After seven years since The LOX’s last official group release, D-Block is finally prepping a new disc.

The album, Prepare For Glory, is set to hit Aug. 19 on Babygrande Records.

D-Block is anchored by The LOX—Jadakiss, Styles P and Sheek Louch—but also has several other members: Poobs, Trav, Straws, A.P., T.Y., Bucky, Bully, Don D. and Large Amount. Longtime group member J Hood was dismissed from the group after publicly dragging the crew’s chain on the ground and dissed The LOX for their inability to help get him further into the industry. Last month, he wrote a letter apologizing for his actions and explaining his rationale.

While each of the LOX members have released their share of solo albums and mixtapes—the most recently being Styles P’s Super Gangster, Extraordinary Gentleman from last year—Prepare For Glory marks the entire D-Block ensemble’s first official release since year 2000’s LOX album, We Are The Streets.

The album’s first leak is “That’s My Nigga,” which features Jadakiss, Styles P and Sheek.
