Update: YN’s Def Jam Music
Nah, I wasn’t feelin’ the Def Jam 25, 5 CD set that’s out right now. But instead of being a hater, your favorite hip-hop curator put together his own collection. I stuck to the year guidelines that were established and didn’t repeat any songs they used and I still feel like my joint crushes theirs. Damn, I ain’t put this much work in since MJ passed. Without further adieu, for you and your boo, listen to the music. And damn, N.O., I forgot you too. SMH. Sorry, Santiago.
Peace to EMZ and Ill Badler for the inspiration.

Tracklist for the biters on the other side.
Update: OK I screwed it up. “What The Bloodclot (Original)” and “This DJ” in. “Bring The Pain” and “Regulate” are like Amil—Gone! Now, no repeats. You can check. You can’t front on this!

WHO IS NORE U MUST WAN HIS GREATEST REGATON HIT GO TO WW.SUCKMYDICK.COM NORE IS TRASH
Fuck! Junior is right! I’ll fix tmw.
Needs Black Republicans. Okay I get it, you werent feeling the Nas albums but come on son that was classic
Sardines too! Ugh.
this is a dope list! after ’98 i don’t care. but the 84 shit is dope! even more proof how wack the vh1 show was. nice n smooth ‘early to rise’ could be on it. but this shit is hot. thanks YN
two words…Thank You!!
@Toss
“Early To Rise” was on first album on Fresh/Sleeping Bag.
christmas comes early. super good lookin’!!!
[…] For the Free: YN’s Def Jam Music […]
Official Compilation. What about the “Flatlinerz” ? Nobody remembers “horrorcore” Hip-Hop well I guess it was a bit of a gamble…lol. I guess being Rush’s nephew has its perks. Well good look out on the compilation tastefully done.
@YN
“Sardines” and “Word” need to be on each and every Def Jam collection. Classic songs.
thank you kindly, sir.
Super-sized props for the effort YN! You killin’ it yo. This is dope!
Peace.
Yeah this dope as fuck YN but….Playaz Circle r on Def Jam??? I thought the were just on DTP and whatever distribution label is partnered with them….and yeah, u coulda at least put a few Nas joints on there. Lol.
Whooooooooooooa! Illest post yet. iLike.

Nice List, took me back to college, high school, and middle school. Hell if not for Def Jam, would I even no Hip Hop
Merci!
You repeated Da Rockwilder. Fail!
ah yeah,nice & smooth first album was on sleeping bag. sorry about that!
“Ill Bomb”? Great choice!
[…] As nice as it is to see Uncle L get his proper due again with All World 2, if the tracklist after the jump is correct, then 3 of the songs on this greatest hits compilation already appeared on the original. Can you say tonearm sequence fail again? Don’t make me do my own. You know how I do. […]
damn, YN! you’ve stepped it up a notch, i see. this is dope. i’m about to cut my hair to ’89-93. i don’t know why they hit harder to me then. i guess because those were the college years. my high school years were drenched with nwa cursing up a storm and loving every minute of it. thanks again!
