Snoop has a genuine passion for the label and the culture, and we are all excited to have Snoop join the Def Jam Family.” said interim Chairman and CEO interim Jeffrey Harleston.

The man born Calvin Broadus released a video sharing his excitement and explained why he jumped at the opportunity. “Now, you may wonder why, so late in my career, would I want to work for Def Jam Records,” Snoops says as Public Enemy’s “Fight the Power” plays in the background. “Well let me tell you, as a young rapper, Def Jam was the holy grail of Hip-Hop.” He would go on to clarify his goals in the new role as “to help the artists and give them love and wisdom and guidance and understanding, teach them some tricks that I learned in the game — to diversify their portfolios to be superstars”.
