As Jadakiss gears up to release his new album Top 5 Dead or Alive, the hip-hop vet is also having a lot of fun. We all know that 'Kiss is one of the best lyricist in the game but did you know that he also a phenomenal breakdancer? Video of the "Why" spitta breakdancing for his homies popped up on the web and it's the greatest thing you'll see today. Breakdancing is one of the four original elements of hip-hop. Even though the popularity hasn't grown to a bigger stage as MCing has, breakdancing is still an art form that is celebrated around the world. Jadakiss looks like a pro in the video above. Not only does he shows off his crisp fundamentals, he also does a perfect 360 windmill backspin plus poses at the end. It's a sight to see and will certainly blow your mind. This only adds to his legend.

The Yonkers native released the music video for his single "Jason" off his new studio LP,Top 5 Dead or Alive, a follow up to 2009’s The Last Kiss.  Earlier this year, he confirmed that Lil Wayne, Jeezy, Wiz Khalifa, Rick Ross, Chris Brown and perhaps J.Cole or A$AP Rocky will be on the new LP. The project does not have a release date at this time but fans can expect it before The LOX’s forthcoming We Are the Streets 2 project.

What can fans expect from T5DOA? “Just regular heat,” said Jada to XXL during the summer. “No gimmicks, just good music. You know what Jada is going to bring to the table. No pyro, no backflips, just music you can clean up the crib to, [Music] you can ride out to or get in war mode to. Just that kind of music that aint really around. Not too much strip club anthems or that kind of stuff. I’m going to have a balance but the core of it is going to be that Jada shit.”

To help fans wait for the LP, Jada dropped T5DOA: Freestyle Edition mixtape. Listen to it below.
