Today we celebrate the birthdays of two of hip-hops all time greats, Andre 3000 and Jadakiss. Both rappers were born May 27, 1975 – Jadakiss in New York, And 3000 in Georgia. Each artist signifies a great era of hip-hop for both their regions. Jadakiss has been holding down New York since the Biggie Smalls era, while Andre 3000 and Outkast were at the forefront of the southern hip-hop movement in the late 90’s early 2000’s.
