It's pretty clear to me that Jay-Z was pretty much the brains behind everything there...
Dame and Bugs both got big gigantic checks for their share of Rocafella. I believe it was 20 million each.

Biggs with $20 Mil in hand continues his involvement with a major marijuana distribution ring...

This is the dumbest of dumb moves...
If this man was smart if he was really business man he would have cut all times with that ring, or be so far removed/hands off from the work that any lawyer in the country could beat the case...

Dash got the Rocafella check and even got $40 Million more for Rocawear...
What does he do?
Dame Dash Music Group?
CEO fashion line?
Tiret luxury watch line?
Bets it all on Jim Jones last album being a classic?
(Insert additional flops here)

stop being a fakkit and trying to get replies off my thread.

Dame was the brains behind Rocafella, Jay was the rapper.

that's how it always was, that's how it always will be.

Lol not even close. Jay wouldnt be where he is without dame. Fact.

Lol, let me help you with your so called facts. Jay and Dame would be no where without John Minelli. It is not a coincidence that when Dame fired John Minelli as his business manger, and Jay hired him as his business manger(around 03). That Dame and Jays career paths went in different directions.

But ya, Dame was always the brains at Rocafella, never John Minelli.. sarc/

It was a 50/50 venture between Jay-Z and Dame when the rose and it was the same when they fell. Anyone that doesn't have biased towards one of them knows this.

Nah jokes aside, there was a lot of people involved from secretaries to marketing advisors to business managers to Lyor Cohen, LA Reid to Steve Stoute to Dame to Jay to John Meneilly to OG Juan, Jay Brown, Chris Lighty, Uncle Rush, Kyser, Greewald, and more. All of them played an important role.

People are trying to break down major businesses like it's a starting line up in basketball on a street level. If any sport it would be like Football where it's hard to determine who the most important person is. Obviously it's good to have Tom Brady on your team, but that's irrelevant if your defense is ass and even if your defense is good it's irrelevant if the coordinator is wack.
