Damn Dame looking like Larry Holmes on steroids

Same and can were too ignorant for their own good. But damn they were entertaining.

From the get go, I always wondered why Jay Z was losing money splitting the pie with Dame and the other dude...

It never made sense to me...

Dude was dead weight...He was just a middle man...

Jay was the rapper
Dame was the business man
Biggs had that brown paper bag money

 

[Long Live The Kane]

And that's only based on the fact that they paths crossed and history cannot be changed...It has nothing to do with Dame's non-existent business acuity...

Maybe Jay Z would have been richer sooner, if he had never met Dame...Maybe Jay Z wouldn't have been as rich, but have a more artistically respectable catalogue...

We don't know for sure...

But we know that Dame met a lot more rappers after Jay Z, and none of them have Jay Z's stature in the game...

That's what winning the lotto is all about...There is no skill involved...

Just because somebody is "about their paper" it doesn't mean that they are good at doing business...

Damn...nikkas are really trying to retroactively diminish Dame like that? Didn't know it had gotten to this point...I won't go as far as to say without Dame there's no Jay-Z...he made in-roads in the industry before linking up with Dame (Hawaiin Sophie and all that), so maybe he finds his back into it eventually...what can't be denied in way, shape of form...is without Dame, there is no Roc-A-Fella...not just the label, but Roc-A-Fella as a movement...it just flat out doesn't exist without Dame...the brashness, the independent minded "fukk the industry, we're our own bosses and we'll suceed playing by our rules" stuff...that's all Dame, his personality was basically the ethos for the whole movement...Now that we see Jay-Z the completed character with 15plus years worth of branding already built up it's easy to just go "Oh well, Jay would have been Jay regardless"...but without the Roc-a-Fella movement that was synonymous with and an integral part of his rise, who's to say Jay's career doesn't play out like AZ's? Instead of having a team like the Roc, if Jay was just a mid 90's mafiaso era rapper randomly plugged in a cog in a major label machine...dude's like Dame, Suge, Baby, Irv, etc. ain't just random inconsequential figures

every dude in the game isn't a jay-z, snoop, em, kanye type multi millionaire crossover star. and lets not act like both the demise of the roc, stupid hood antics, and inevitable mid-level rapper falloff didn't knock them other dudes out the game. outside of diddy ( who lucked up pimping the shyt outta folks in the era when everyone sold plat) and dre (who lucked up signing em and linking up with 50) none of these hood record execs have sustained their empires (master p, irv, JD, dee & waah)

Damn who woulda thought Cam would be richer than Dame Dummy

exactly, jay wouldnt have made RD if it weren't for dame...jay may have stayed riding jaz-o's nuts into obscurity. you can't dismiss the role these dudes played, you also can't come down on dame without realizing all these dudes' time came and went (except diddy and baby who mastered the art of pimping artists to death)

 

[fukkyalifestyle]

I get the joke but Dame looks happy there to me

nikka looking like a tax accountant and shyt

The dualities

 

[www.THUG.com]

Nukka looks like he should be on the back of a Vespa holding Starbucks cups in each hand while holding on to the driver with his groin and leg lock

If a deflated balloon could express emotion, this would be its pose

He looks like Prodigy's taller, uglier brother

Nikka looks like some nerd ass fan that won backstage passes to a diplomats concert.

Coli nikkas stay on 1!

come to think of it, back in the early 00s, there were many classes of rappers. Some of them couldn't even fukk with certain video hoes cause them super bad chicks only wanted the Jay_zs, the Eminems, the Nellys, etc.

Nowadays video hoes and hoes are all around the place. If you upload a video on youtube and have over 100 views, you getting groupies.
