Ups And Downs Of Jay-Z’s Def Jam Tenure Chronicled

With Jay-Z stepping down as president of Def Jam ending a nearly four year run, RealTalkNY.net chronicled some of their past comments and verses from LL Cool J, Joe Budden, Beanie Sigel, Jadakiss, and others questioning Jay’s performance. But on the positive side, Fabolous came through with two gold albums, Ludacris pulled multiplatinum on a pair of discs, plus Jay lured in Nas and Jadakiss, while Rihanna was a sales coup in ‘07 thanks to ‘Umbrella’ and Kanye West’s ‘Graduation’ had the biggest week of the year. YouTube has since removed the video.
