Dame Dash linking up with Jay-z mentor and street legend Calvin Klein Bacote

[REdefinition]

Interesting development. Klein was Jay's OG in the street. He mentions him on Allure "I never felt more alive than riding shotgun in Klein's green 5 before the cops pulled guns." Jay initially tried to help him when he came home but they had a falling out.

Interview of Klein speaking on his relationship with Jay:

 

[Kal-El]

I really don't get Dame....what is he after? What does he want?

Is it the fame or the money? All this boss talk is cute and all but what is his motivation? I doubt hes broke so why don't he sit his ass down somewhere and just enjoy life? At this point hes doing too much and none of it makes sense

 

[fact]

I think they fell out because Jay offered him 1 million dollars to start a business when he came home, but Klein just couldn’t get over working for someone he gave birth to, and decided nahhhh. I’m pretty sure he regrets it

Story is Jay offered to invest in whatever Klein wanted to get into and Klein wanted to buy an arena somewhere down south and Jay was gonna put up $10 mill

I think once the sellers found out Klein was connected to Jay, they raised the price on em and then Klein wasn't tryna go back and ask Jay for more

I saw an inyerinte on it with Klein back in the day and it sounds like Jay left it open ended for Klein to make the call on what to do next but I'm not sure.

Honestly the way Klein told the story it seemed mostly like miscommunication and not anyone trying to play anyone else

But who knows
