Twenty-five years ago, Rick Rubin, and Russell Simmons started  Def Jam Recordings in an NYU dorm room.  Today the label is home to some of the most influential and stylish artists in hip-hop and R&B. Island Def Jam, Roc-A-Fella, and G.O.O.D. Music are just a few of the labels under Def Jam, responsible for hit record after hit record.

From adidas tracksuits and throwbacks, to Timberlands and tailored suits, Def Jam artists are responsible for the biggest trends and all time greatest styles. From OG’s like LL Cool J to the new generation like Frank Ocean, Def Jam is still swaggin' on everyone. This month is Def Jam’s 25 Year Anniversary and to celebrate, here is a list of The 25 Most Stylish Def Jam Artists.
