When he had no album on the lineup, Jadakiss decided to take matters into his own hands. Following the release of The Last Kiss, in 2009, Jadakiss promised to deliver an album a year. Before the end of the year, he had announced Top 5 Dead or Alive.

Jadakiss, and his fans, were under the impression this album would be released in 2010. An entire year came and went without a Jadakiss album. This year was beginning to mirror 2010, as far as Jadakiss releasing an album.

However, Jadakiss decided to record a mixtape and put it out himself for the fans. The new release is titled I Love You and it was officially released today. Featuring all original songs, Jadakiss shows his dedication to the rap game on his new record.

Jadakiss spoke with DJ Whoo Kid about the new mixtape. The Yonkers rapper said the mixtape will serve as an "hors d’oeuvre" to Top 5 Dead or Alive. He promised the album was still coming and would have a major impact, upon its release. Jadakiss worked with Trae The Truth, Rick Ross, Fred the Godson, and the new Maybach signee, Teyana Taylor.

The mixtape is available in retail stores and online.

Perhaps Jadakiss is known more for his mixtapes than he is for his own albums. Following the release of 2009's The Last Kiss, Jadakiss promised to release an album a year. Due to issues with Def Jam, he was unable to fulfill this promise.

But, for 2011, Jadakiss will be giving his fans something. His 2011 mixtape is warmly titled, I Love You. The mixtape will be available for purchase in retail stores. Jadakiss is treating this mixtape more like an album, as he serves as the executive producer on the album.

Unlike on his The Champ is Here mixtape series, Jadakiss is rapping over original beats. Jadakiss promises fans the new mixtape will be all original songs. Unlike on his other releases, Kiss said there will be more songs for the ladies, as well.
