Lil Jon talks Def Jam: Icon
Yahoo! Games’ latest Hollywood Byte feature focuses on rapper/producer Lil Jon. While this news may not usually make it to gaming blogs, Lil Jon has recently become involved in the videogame industry with his inclusion in the recently-released next gen videogame Def Jam: Icon. Plus, it’s a slow news day, so here we go.
According to the feature, the sheer amount of detail in Def Jam: Icon was one of the things that most impressed the rapper. “Man, when I first saw the rough images, I was blown away,” said Lil Jon. “The details down to the whiskers on my damn chinny chin chin. It’s just crazy that they can put this much detail into something.
“They even have the way you stand and maybe scratch your head. All of that is incorporated into the game. It’s just a whole nother level. I’ve never seen anything like this.”
The rapper also had a few insights on how videogames have made inroads into the music business. “Everybody plays videogames every day, or at least once a week, so that’s incorporated into the music industry,” said Lil Jon. “I think pretty much all of us rappers and music industry cats are big gamers.”
Lil Jon said that he and his contemporaries will certainly be playing Def Jam: Icon to represent themselves, as well. “Now you have this game where it’s really us… It’s something everybody likes to do and it’s a new game and it’s something different and fresh.”
