Def Jam Executive Is Found Dead: In Loving Memory Of Shakir Stewart

Over the past five years, Shakir made an invaluable contribution to the revitalization and growth of Def Jam.

Shakir was an amazing man, in every sense of the word. A truly incredible friend and father who was an inspiration to not only our artists and employees, but to his family and the many people who had the privilege of counting him as a friend.
