Sigel interview was cool, dude sounded a little scared the way he was wording his questions for a while.
October 19th, 2007 at 1:25 pm

I think if other hip hop artist on Def Jam had the fan base that Hov has and a track record of selling over a mill then Def Jam would drop they shit to. Look at Ye for example. Rihanna, Neyo and other R&B artist sold records they first album. R&B fans still buy CD’s so thats why you see a guy like Robin Thicke sell over 2 million records. It just looks easier to drop them compared to hiphop artist, where you gotta have a establish fan base who wanna see your album do well.

@ 3 & Jay-Z will only let a Def Jam artist get an album out if he doesn’t consider them a threat to him after the Pump It Up Remix when Jay-Z got outshined but Budden. Jay-Z didn’t want Joey putting out an album just look what happened to DMX, Method Man, Redman & even Ll they all were shelved.
“Look at Ye for example. Rihanna, Neyo and other R&B artist sold records they first album ”
@ 7 If you talking about first album then Joe Budden went Gold on his first album that was in 2003 I would consider that pretty good for a new artists. But Jay-Z only a few weeks ago said he does know how to market Joe ? & a couple of weeks later dudes is realsed. You could tell Def Jam wasn’t fully behind him when they tryed to make him bring out some bullshit single called Gangasta Party. But Ludacris had a big following in the south but Def Jam aint fully behinf him neither is Jay-Z, how many remixes from the Def Jam artists has he done proably only Kayne West & Riahhana is Riahaana worth a remix over Budden, DMX,Ludacris, Redman & Method man ?
Good looks on the Beanie Sigel Interview can’t wait for the album even Beanie had a lack of promotion from Def Jam for his last album. If Jay-Z aint supporting his artists why the fuck is he CEO Jay-
@ 4 Even Jay-Z doesn’t hate Wayne and thinks he’s “extremely talented” so why do yall hate wayne? I don’t think you can take what Jay-Z say so seriously and the hate is for him calling himself the greatest rapper alive & jumping on any niggas single or remixes whoever willing to pay him.

@ number 8
so u hate him because he works for anybody who requests? this is his job, he gets paid for it.. Are you an idiot? lol
Don’t take anything 50 tells you as gospel.. he did say he would outsell Kanye HA!

IMO DEF JAM WAS ONE OF THE MOST ACTIVE HIP HOP LABELS OVER THE PAST YEAR YOU CAN’T DENY THAT AND AS FOR SALES THE SALES ARE A REFLECTION OF HOW THE INDUSTRY IS NOW NOBODY IS SELLING APART FROM A FEW ARTIST. PEOPLE SINGLE OUT DEF JAM CUS OF JAY-Z BUT NAME A LABEL THAT IS DOING BETTER.

@ 9 nah I don’t hate on dude but how you gonna shelve somebody just because you don’t get along with or they punked you out.Isn’t it his job to promote his artists ? Yet the dude says he couldn’t promote Joe Budden right … no need to get personal
so u hate him because he works for anybody who requests? this is his job, he gets paid for it.. Are you an idiot? lol
Don’t take anything 50 tells you as gospel.. he did say he would outsell Kanye HA! ? hmmm…. you sure he actually sold that good I think Def Jam was buying loads of Kayne West CD’s 50’s CD was alot better.

no sorry ^ your not using facts your using personal opinion if jay really did joe that way .i think joe an’t no hoe .i ‘m pretty sure joe would have checked him.what is jay-z doing threatning to murda them or something if they projects wasn’t handled the way it should have been then what ever happen to be grown ass men and letting jay know . if they can’t put their foot down like dudes who be about theirs then i don’t know why you outside niggas is even tripppin…
