The group is composed of East Coast rappers Sheek Louch, Styles P and Jadakiss. They had originally signed to Puff Daddys Bad Boy Records in 1996, before joining Ruff Ryders in 1999, and have since launched their own label, D-Block. The Lox (stylized The LOX or The L.O.X.) is an American hip hop group from Yonkers, New York, formed in 1994. While the LOX as a unit do not offer much in terms of topical dexterity, Jadakiss is one the industry's most underappreciated lyricists, which he clearly reiterates on his solo cut 'Blood Pressure.' Ruff Ryders in-house producer Swizz Beatz handles most of the production duties, and although his syncopated production can become repetitious, DJ Premier ('Recognize') and Timbaland ('Ryde or Die Bitch,' featuring Eve and Drag-On) provide some much-needed diversity with their signature sounds. The Lox is an American hip hop group from Yonkers, New York, formed in 1994. Not only because Puffy's glossy sound openly clashed with the group's thug mentality, but the change of scenery also furnished Jadakiss, Sheek, and Styles with an opportunity to assert their own identity.

The LOX's highly publicized and drawn-out defection from Puffy's Bad Boy Records to DMX's Ruff Ryder camp was imperative.
