BET PRE-PARTY:
MOST DEF

At Def Jam's star-studded pre-BET throwdown in L.A., SVP Urban Promotion Bill Evans, EVP Promotion Rick Sackheim, EVP Strategic Marketing and Brand Partnerships Que Gaskins, EVP Marketing Chris Atlas, Def Jam CEO Steve Bartels and EVP Urban Promotion Rodney Shealey decided we were the embodiment of fake news.

In a heart-tugging moment, Bartels informs hip-hop star 2Chainz that he has approved a budget for several additional chainz.

Seen thinking that spitting a verse is cool but spitting a middle eight is the quintessence of skill are (l-r) Bartels, Artist Manager Corey Smyth, Vince Staples and Chris Atlas.

These people all vowed to apologize to the President for the whole Russia thing: SVP Promo Noah Sheer, Bartels, 2Chainz and EVP Promo Rick Sackheim.
