NEW YORK (AP) - May 21, 2009
The rapper confirms reports that he has left the record company
where he made most of his biggest hits and went from artist to
president, and back to artist again.
In an interview with the Web site RapRadar.com, he thanks the
label's executives and calls his time at Def Jam "a unique and
fulfilling experience."
Last year, Jay-Z and Live Nation struck a wide-ranging deal that
included touring, publishing and albums. Jay-Z had owed Def Jam one
more record. A representative for Jay-Z declined to elaborate on
his comments.
