Def Jam is one of those fighting games that are associated with some urban, pop, and hip-hop musical artists. In the franchise of Def Jam, an artist like 2 Chainz, Nas, Big Sean, Pusha T, Kanye West, and Teyana Taylor are included. In the early 2002s, the company gave its name to the video game series that includes Def Jam Vendetta, Def Jam: Fight For NY, and Def Jam Icon. Every series of the game brought some new type of content and created hype of the game. The most significant improvement in the series has happened in the graphics and characters of the game.
In 2003, Def Jam Vendetta was released that featured some famous rappers like Method Man, DMX, Ludacris, Redman, Ghostface Killah. Adding these rappers in the game was a smart move by the company because, as a result, they received great reviews from fans. The game also received positive reviews for making a hip-hop based game. In those times, several fighting and wrestling games were in the market, but Def Jam: Vendetta created a separate hype among the players.
Def Jam recently teased, and they might think of launching a new game. In their recent tweet regarding the Def Jam game, they said, “The streets saying we need a new Def Jam game.” They also announced on Twitter that “Once our twitter hits 1M, we have a special announcement for y’all.” Now that Def Jam label has surpassed the 1 million followers, they might reveal a new game in the future.
Def Jam: Fight For NY fighting action game was published by “Electronic Arts” and also followed Def Jam Vendetta in 2004. These series of games also featured some famous artists like Fat Joe, Snoop Dogg, Lil’ Kim, Busta Rhymes, Mobb Deep, Xzibit, Ice-T, and many more artists. The game also allowed players to choose between several fighting styles like kickboxing, wrestling, submission, street fighting, and martial arts.
Def Jam Icon was the final entry from the franchise that was released in 2007. This edition of the game further focused on mixing up blocks, up-close brawling, parries, and throws. It also included some famous artists like Sean Paul, Lil Jon, Bun B, T.I., Big Boi, E-40, Young Jezzy, and The Game. The game was pretty impressive, but it was mostly praised for its soundtracks. Whoever played the previous version of the game didn’t feel like the Def Jam Icon is better than the earlier version.
Now, if Def Jam brings a new series in the market, it will help the new and current generation of rap artists. Players are excited and happy about the Twitter update of Def Jam, and they are already up to some cool speculations. Players won’t mind if Def Jam brings artists like Rihanna, Justin Bieber, and more similar artists.
Conclusion – Def Jam is a popular label around the world. They are connected to almost every Hollywood rap artist. Every single series from the Def Jam franchise has something special. However, they are always ready to bring some new faces in the game.
