Watch Jadakiss Argue About Hip-Hop in a Barbershop

Most top fives aren't written down. Barbershop arguments have become such a staple of hip-hop culture that the term has spread outside the salon industry, serving as shorthand for any circular, impassioned debate. One popular topic: the greatest rapper of all time, for which everyone who needs a lineup has a running shortlist somewhere in their cranium. Next Friday (Nov. 20), Jadakiss will try to cash in on his ubiquity in these discussions; the Lox legend has named his fourth solo album Top 5 Dead or Alive. To show that he isn't above the fray, Jada stopped by the Bronx barbershop This Is It to mull over the all-time canon. And while most of the cases were built on classic albums or inescapable singles, one customer went outside the box: "I feel 'Kiss is top five just off the fact of coming back, he was bald for 20 years, then just walked up with a hairline one day. He top five off of that alone." Check out the tracklist for Top 5 Dead or Alive below:
