Yesterday, Shabooty reported that seminal indie hip-hop label Definitive Jux would be closing its doors. While the blog cited "many of their sources," there'd been no official word from label head El-P pertaining to the matter. Today, the site has posted a statement from El-P regarding the label's future:
"This year, a decade after starting DEF JUX and after overseeing the releases of some incredible albums including the forthcoming release of my dear late and great friend Camu Tao's brilliant "KING OF HEARTS" LP, I'm stepping away from my duties as artistic director for the label to concentrate on what I love most: being a producer and an artist full time. ... This means change for JUX. Of course we'll still have our website, we will still sell our catalog, merch and more as well as bring you news and updates on all our projects and artists. We will be releasing "KING OF HEARTS", a DEF JUX remix compilation, a 10 year anniversary retrospective and some other goodies. But then as a traditional record label DEF JUX will effectively be put on hiatus. We are not closing, but we are changing."
Check out the full statement here. Over the years, Def Jux has released albums from the likes of Aesop Rock, Murs, Cage, Del tha Funkee Homosapien, Mr. Lif and many others.
