JIHAD’S STORY

Jihad Basil Pridgen, aka Snowhadd, was a talented and passionate rapper. Raised in a musical household, Jihad followed in the footsteps of his globally acclaimed father, American hip hop artist Freeway. Jihad was a rising star in the Philadelphia music scene with a bright future ahead of him. He was also a loving son, brother, cousin, and friend who touched many lives with his music and personality. In October 2020, Jihad Pridgen died suddenly at the age of twenty years old. The loss of his life was tragic, but amidst their painful loss, Jihad's family honored others with the gift of life. Jihad was able to donate both lungs, his liver and both kidneys. Freeway and Jihad are both honored on the 2024 OneLegacy Donate Life Float. Freeway uses his platform to advocate for donation and transplantation, not only honoring the donor who saved his life but lifting up the memory of his son who saved the lives of four others.
