Def Jam Records launched 25 years ago, and Jay-Z and Young Jeezy came by the Spotted Pig in New York City to celebrate. The private dinner took place on Friday (October 14th), after Def Jam founders Rick Rubin and Russell Simmons spoke at the New York Public Library about the label’s early years chronicled in the book Def Jam Recordings: The First 25 Years of the Last Great Record Label .
