comment	Def Soul est le penchant soul et r&b du label Def Jam. Il a été créé lorsque Def Jam, jusqu'alors orienté rap, a signé le premier artiste r&b du label Montell Jordan en 1996. Au milieu des années 1990, le new jack swing et le r&b sont en vogue et de nouveaux labels comme Bad Boy Records de Puff Daddy ou So So Def de Jermaine Dupri dominent le marché de ce genre. Alors pour s'assurer de rester leader Def Jam, en plus de Montell Jordan (qui a quitté le groupe Def Jam en 2002), font signer de nouveaux talents comme le quatuor r&b Dru Hill (avec comme leader Sisqo) et la chanteuse Kelly Price.

It was formed in 1996 by Russell Simmons and Kevin Liles to expand R&B and soul music through Def Jam's said genre-related roster following the successes of Montell Jordan and Case.
