Styles P, of hip-hop group, The Lox, who runs Juices for Life with group member Jadakiss, said it’s a beautiful thing to have artists collaborate and do more for hip-hop than move a crowd with their music.Johnny Nunez / WireImage “It’s good to be a part of hip-hop history, to continue to be a part of hip-hop history and to consistently be able to impact the culture in a great way,” he said. “Food is a great way to commune with different people at festivals. You tend to get to know the people you’re in line with. And you all have great food. You get to talk about that. It just helps lend itself to a better experience at a music festival.
Jason Olivencia, 42, of Browns Mills, New Jersey, said he was excited to hear artists he grew up listening to such as Scarface, Jadakiss and Ice Cube. In a continuing theme of the festival being an organic, hip-hop product, massive portraits of genre pioneers such as Big Daddy Kane, Run DMC, Roxanne Shanté and Eminem, hung throughout Forest Hills Stadium. Those artists have ownership in the company, according to festival organizers.
