Yup, I remember I have VHS tape back then when "Backstage: Hard Knock Life Tour" with DMX, Method Man & Redman, Roc-A-Fellas, etc. All you see Damon Dash was arguing with somebody from Def Jam staff. You don't see Jay-Z or Biggs yelling out or arguing or anything. It always Damon.



To his defense, it's because that was his job. The Music business is scam central, if someone is not aggressively looking for your interest, you'll be scammed.

Biggs was the shadow partner and Jay was the artist; it was not his job and he's not built like that anyway.

he said socks...I remember cuz nikkas was livid when he said that :mjlol:

fwiw I don’t wear the same tee shirt twice...you don’t have to be rich to do so :hubie:

it costs less than a phone bill to wear a fresh new tee every day...I imagine socks are probably even cheaper

I wear Ralph Lauren undershirts and even nicer socks. Give me a fukking break.

Heres my question to katts...
What's broke?

If this nikka ain't got to get up and go to work, but he can eat what he wants... his family is eating.

:yeshrug:

Ima be honest, I would rather live like that.

I ain't broke but I gotta still get my ass up and work smh

Dame maybe arrogant, but he's certainly not the worst of em. He's not immune...and puts his foot in his mouth, from time to time. IMO tho, he means well, and ultimately wants to see his ppl win. I've gotten plenty of food from his rants.

It's interesting to see, so many (mostly losers in the game of life overall), having such a hard-on, over seein dude fall. Specifically, another black man (and one that's meant as much to the culture as Dame has)...:mjpls:

fukk outta here, post evidence of so called white mogul acting like Dame Dash

the reality is, if Dame was a real mogul HE COULD TALK LIKE THIS AND PEOPLE WOULD STILL DO BUSINESS WITH HIM BECAUSE HE PRODUCES RESULTS

The fact is, Dame Dash is broke, he not a mogul, he's biggest accomplishment in life is riding Jay-Z coat tails, getting paid of his talent, this nikka never made no beats, never wrote no bars, he controls zero distribution companies, controls zero media outlets, what was his role in the company besides taking half the money without bringing anything to the table

Stop making excuses for this dead beat, this guy is delusional, he let the money from Rocafella get to his head, he is a prime example of guys who can't handle success

he talks a good game, its easy to convince people when you have confidence, but that confidence becomes arrogance when it's not backed up by results. Dame hasn't produced anything meaningful in over a decade, he's known for being the guy Jay-Z use to fukk it up, yet you trying to talk down on people sounded high and mighty when this nikka can't even pay his bills lmao

Those white business men who act like as wells are actually rich so they can act like a$$holes, because people have to tolerate it because they want what they are offering

Dame was nothing to offer, so people won't tolerate his ridiculous behavior

Is this one of those cases where Dame has the paper but he trying to hide it or is he really this broke? I mean I can front a 2,800 dollar bill... The way Dame speaks, I wouldn’t expect him to still have millions but at least a few hundred thousand? He squandered all of that paper?! I find that hard to believe... :francis:
The courts will too

That was always an excuse. That's just the way he was built.
You can be aggressive without being excessively disrespectful.
You could hear it in that Breakfast Club interview.
You can hear it when Just Blaze tells old stories of how Dame disrespected him.
That random reality show where his brothers had all that animosity towards him.
