"Saw Dizzee Rascal yesterday at Muse Concert in Emirate Stadium"
Shyne Reportedly Dropped From Def Jam
Rapper Shyne is no longer part of the Def Jam family according to producer Ken Lewis, who worked with him on what was supposed to be his comeback album.
"Well, I mixed 18 songs for the upcoming album and produced two, but he got dropped from Def Jam [Records], and I haven’t heard from him since," Lewis told HipHopDX. "Yeah, that may not be common knowledge. [Laughs] That might get me in trouble. His release date was splattered as May 17 all over the world, but the day came and went, and I never heard from Shyne again. I don’t really know what happened to him, I just know that as far as I’m concerned, I’m not a part of that record anymore."
Former Def Jam President L.A. Reid, inked Shyne to a deal that was reported to be between $1 million and $5 million dollars in February of 2010, just months after he was released from prison, but the record company never saw a return on their investment.
Shyne, who changed his birth name from Jamal Michael Barrow to Moshe Levi Ben-David to reflect his religious conversion to Judaism is now living in Israel.

Shyne was making some dope tracks before he got jammed up now, so lets not get that fact twisted.. all HIP HOP heads know thats fact! BUT the post prison Shyne is just straight up GARBAGE and has no place in todays rap game . He lost his flow, ability to put together a decent song and most of all his lyricism.
