AllHipHop.com: Well, that's good. Why do you feel the need to go after Def Jam artists like Rhianna and Jeezy? You called him Young Cheesey on BET...
DMX: I thought that's what he said. I didn't...
[General laughter in room]
DMX: At least I corrected myself. If I'ma diss a n***a, I'm gonna say, "F**k you, you b*tch ass n***a." And I didn't diss homegirl [Rhianna]. I'm just like, "[Def Jam] this is the stuff y'all putting out? And y'all gonna put my s**t to the left?" Come on, you can't be serious. Like that's hot? That's why I said, "This s**t is kinda hot - not." First of all, they stole Will Smith's beat for "Switch." They took the n***a's beat and put some random [person] that can't sing - it's like...come on, man. She ain't hit notes like that.
AllHipHop.com: So, it's not Rhianna as much as it is Def Jam?
DMX: Yeah, and a lack of quality in the music. Take somebody's beat, put some n***a on the girl and say, "Dance."
