Former President Of Def Jam Lyor Cohen Reflects On His Days @ The Company

Hip Hop Honors |Celebrity News |Def Jam |Hip Hop

@ 1st I though this guy was not gonna make any sense but he made a great point about other record labels. Lyor, Kevin Liles & others worked hard to push their artist & saw the success of DMX, Jay-Z, Ja-Rule, Foxy Brown, Ludacris & a host of others. They promoted their artist, they market their artist & they developed their artist. That's something record labels can't even do today...smh. Def Jam is still a powerhouse till this day, good luck on your next 25 years.
Check out the clip...

death jam gave puffy power to do what he do. but one thing i'll give them though is that most of the artists that are big on that label actually made money off of that shit and got something to show for it. that's about ti. otherwise, they helped fuck up hip hop.
