Recap Of Jay-Z’s Tenure As President Of Def Jam

So we know by now Jay-Z is no longer President of Def Jam. So now when some of these artists are going to flop AGAIN, who are they going to blame???

MTV had an article about who might fill his shoes, rumors are that Jermaine Dupri, Jimmy "Henchman" Rosemond or Damon Dash & they made a list of other potential candidates, along with a few looooong shots, who could land the coveted Def Jam presidency


RealTalkNY recaps Jay-Z’s tenure as President of Def Jam. Featuring clips from LL Cool J, Beanie Sigel, Joe Budden, Jadakiss, and Redman. From the mishaps to the accomplishments...







"album sales aren’t no where near what they used to be and no amount of promotion can change that. Thats not Jay-Z’s fault. The artist’s themselves have to be also held accountable for their projects. Get on your own grind and promote yourself if you feel the label isn’t. Also some of these artists have to be honest with themselves in terms of dropping albums and the timing of dropping albums. As much as we love LL Cool J in the Hip Hop community how many people honestly are sitting around saying “damn I can’t wait for that new LL album”???…..In all honesty who really was checking for a Beanie Sigel or Freeway album at this time of the year????….Well I could go on and on but Jigga did his thing while he had the position and now that he’s not the President of Def Jam anymore I wonder who the artists are gonna blame now when their albums brick in sales" ..i couldn't have said it better.

What is the world coming too..

In a recent interview with SOHH, rap legend Scarface proclaimed Soulja Boy to be his favorite rapper in the game right now.

"I'm telling you, Soulja Boy, that's my favorite artist right now," Scarface said. "I don't know what the fuck he sayin' but it's my favorite shit. First he was supersoakin' that hoe, then he was supermanin' that hoe. Is he Spidermanin' that hoe now? I'm down with that shit man. I don't know what none of that shit mean. So tell that kid to call me and tell me what all that shit mean."

......are you FREAKIN kidding me?!?!

ugh, (to read rest of the article)

My Crew

yeah so i havent had a post in a few days, laptop crashed lol =X

so real quick heres something, Jean Grae ..shes dope, lyrics are dope n def doesnt get the recognition she deserves ....this is for you Alanna ( her biggest fan lolol ;] )






** (listen to Jean Grae on Talib Kwelis remix to Hot Thing)

And the winner is...

Jay-Z tops this week’s Billboard 200 album sales chart with his American Gangster album, which sold 425,861 (I believe he could of done so much more, but then again album leaked CRAZY so I think those numbers are actually great) records in its first week! This gives Jay his tenth number one album, tying him with Elvis Presley for the second highest number of number one albums (The Beatles still have a lock on the top spot with 19).
