Nah Real Talk - Fuck Def Jam.
Them faggots don't really fuck with the Westcoast much.
Yeah they've had some good rappers in the past, but now not so much.
I can dig that.
Only West coast artist i can affiliate with Def Jam are Warren G, Jayo Felony, and i think, maybe W.C.
Other than that, they are what they are. The original, independent, Hip-Hop record label. They are in New York, so off top they signed locals. If Def Jam originated in Iowa, it would be Iowa niggas gettin props. Because of Def Jam is why Eazy started Ruthless, Too Short debuted through Dangerous Music, because Def Jam "wasn't fuckin with the west coast artists". West Coast cats saw the success of Def Jam and said, "fuck it, we don't need them, they need us, and carved out the West Coast piece for Hip-Hop culture.
It's not about, "they east coast, we west coast", it's about appreciation for the contribution to the culture. The culture of Hip-Hop.
