The Lox hip-hop legend said on social media that he arrived in Las Vegas on November 29 for the last leg of Usher’s residency at Park MGM’s Dolby Live Theater. Jadakiss said he had been staying at the NoMad, which occupies the top four stories of the Park MGM.<\/p>\n

In a December 2 video shared on X that has since gone viral, Jadakiss, 48, whose real name is Jason Terrance Phillips, says he was gambling at the NoMad for several days before security asked him to leave. In the video, Jadakiss suggested racism was behind the request.<\/p>\n

\n

Don’t ever gamble at the NoMad ever again,”<\/strong> Jadakiss said. “I don’t know what happened. I’ve been gambling here since Wednesday. I’m a tax-paying citizen. I’ve been losing my shirt, socks, everything.”<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Jadakiss continued that security approached him on December 2, the night of Usher’s<\/a> final performance at the Strip resort, asking for his identification.<\/p>\n

“They come to me at the end of the night\u2026 I didn’t win nothing! Is this racial profiling?” Jadakiss asked. “I’m out of here. I’m never coming back. And I’m a millionaire.”<\/p>\n
