When Def Jam wanted to sign Method Man, they wanted to sign Method Man and Old Dirty. And Old Dirty wanted to be on Def Jam - everybody, that was like the dream label. But if I had Old Dirty and Method Man on Def Jam, that's two key pieces going in the same direction, whereas there's other labels that needed to be infiltrated.

Rza

Def Jam commented on one of my Instagram photos once, and all my friends me hit me up, like 'Yoooooo, you signed to Def Jam?'

Amine

I used to be a Def Jam artist. I was - I survived Def Jam.

Black Thought

Def Jam and Roc-A-Fella were two equal entities under the Def Island umbrellas.

I remember 'Def Comedy Jam' being a big deal and kids talking about it in school, but it was never, 'I want to do that.'

Hannibal Buress

Def Jam was always trying to get me to put out an album because I had 'Toot It and Boot It.'

Def Jam is an iconic label.

Rick Ross

I don't dislike rappers or hip-hop or people who like it. I went to the Def Jam tour in Manchester in the '80s when rap was inspirational. Public Enemy were awesome. But it's all about status and bling now, and it doesn't say anything to me.

Noel Gallagher

I was always self-sufficient even when I was with Def Jam.

Redman

Def Jam is the reason why I started a label.

El-P

When people see that we're signed to Def Jam, the perception has changed.

Black Thought

Would I have signed to Def Jam if I knew they was deaf? Nah.

Jeremih

People don't get signed by Def Jam every day on my block.

Dave East

When I appeared in EPMD's 'Hardcore' song and video that was just crazy. Def Jam had these little virals back then on VHS tape. Q-Tip was another very important person to my career. He had me in A Tribe Called Quest's 'Scenario' video when I was first coming out.

Redman

There's probably a bunch of Power Stripe floating through the Def Jam offices right now.

Method Man

If you look at shows like 'Def Comedy Jam' in its heyday, there were so many really funny, talented black comics that never would have gotten on that show because they just weren't doing comedy that fit that mold.
