DMX leaves Def Jam

Troubled hip-hop star DMX has left the Def Jam citing difficulties with label President and fellow rapper Jay-Z.

DMX will now release his comeback album ‘Here We Go Again' through Sony after finding it impossible to deal with his friend becoming his boss.

Sounding distinctly unloved, the Irish Examiner also quotes him as saying, “I made $144 million in the first year - their best ever. How much do you think they gave me? Nothing. Not even a card, and Def Jam was going down. I enabled them to sell the company."
