FORM AND FUNCTION

Def Jam's "The Function" descended on L.A.'s Optimist Studios on Saturday (6/24) as part of this year's BET weekend. We were furnished with these incredibly glamorous photos, which have almost made us reassess our athleisure wardrobe.


Def Jam CEO Tunji Balogun's shades protected his eyes from the star wattage of artists Coco Jones, Lavi$h and Tyler Cole (sporting an Austin Reaves jersey).

EVP/COO Archie Davis, J Dot (of multifaceted music house High Standardz) and Balogun feel the special giddiness that only HITS' absence from a party can inspire.

Davis, Balogun, Muni Long, Armani White and Def Jam EVP/4th & Broadway President LaTrice Burnette await the day these captions can be written with AI.


Wale and Balogun say the remix of this photo is fire.
