| | Def Jam Vendetta - PS2 review |
 | | The music soundtrack is laced with some of the hottest tracks the Def Jam label has to offer. | | | The most disappointing of these modes is undoubtedly the story mode. | | | In story mode, everyone you beat will automatically unlock, and when a boss is defeated, he and his ring will be available through the other modes. |

| | Def Jam, Inc. |
| | "Def Jam's 14 royalty points did not mean a whole lot," Gueraseva notes, "because if they released a hit album along with two or three stiffs, they could possibly not see any royalties: CBS would recoup the stiffs' deficit from the hit album's royalties." | | | The two were a natural team, and they recruited such local acts as LL Cool J (whose 1984 song "I Need a Beat" was Def Jam's first release), Public Enemy and the Beastie Boys to become hitmakers with an uncommonly good track record. | | | Bottom line: A fly-on-the-wall account of how the anarchic, dangerous, and ever so hip record label Def Jam became part of the music establishment. |
