Let's be real, Dame Dash wasn't trying to empower black people on his Breakfast club interview

[Anerdyblackguy]

His execution was terrible, however his message was on point. I don't think it was to entice Envy, I think that's just Dame dash personality. He wants to be in charge so in his mind working for somebody else was/is a waste.

I find it funny that nikkas in the black community think Dame Dash is some hustler/entrepeneur/business mogul. In reality, he's simply an opportunist. He saw an opportunity to ride camel's humps to popularity, and did just that. As soon as Camel left Rocafella, the Roc dissolved into nothingness. He didn't discover Kenrick Lamar, Drake, Cole, Wale, or Meek, and they were starving for a deal at the time. Instead, he signed a washed up Jadakiss, Uncle Murda, Tru Life...basically a bunch of nikkas no one was checking for. He fukked up Currensy's career. Camel gave him multiple chances to save Rocafella by putting albums out under the Rocafella name, but still Dash didnt do shyt with it.

Dude is a fraud. Say what you want about Baby Williams, but he's 20x the entrepeneur Dame will ever be.

Damn, I didnt know all that. I always thought Jay was the bad guy snake

Dame was a drug dealer. Where do you think that start up money came from.

That was the one thing that didn't sit well with me. shytting on someone working 9 to 5 but they gotta get seed money from some where and hustling on the corner isn't always an option people wanna go thru.

Dude was encouraging young uns to "go get it" from the corner instead of save up from a legal job. No self respecting black man can cosign such suggestions.

Not to mention everyone talks about him being a hustler but he got finessed out of his record label, his wife's clothing line and custody of his kids. Now he is doing reality shows to stay relevant. Black people need to stop listening to people's words and start analyzing people's actions.

Nah it was definitely to touch Envys nerve. He didnt start his rant until right after Envy bought up Jay then Dame got mad

This.

Dame is a horrible business man and it befuddles me why dudes would take any real advice from this clown.

Opportunist maybe, but his business was managing artists before Jay and after Jay.

His ego, 80s Harlem attitude and drugs was his downfall. The two former made him efficient but he lacks game, he doesn't know when it's right to act a certain way and on. He's also childish, 45 years old and still holding on to that "He was a geek in high school" mentality. If dude had people skills, he could've been on some next level shyt under Jay cause his drive was crazy dating back to his teens.

 

[DMGAINGREEN]

Yes

I cant watch YT here but I distinctively remember him praising drug dealers for going out, getting it and being independent

And clowning employees for having to "call their bosses daddy"

Thats not wavy. I know u are from Harlem but this shyt can't get a pass. Dame played himself.

Lol damn I ain't recall all lat , but anyone perceiving Dame as some prominent figure to aspire to be is bugging anyway so

 

[Sauce Dab]

So you're saying you had another man on your mind this whole time?
That interview is damn near a year old
We don't do this in Harlem

 

[iFightSeagullsForBread]

He appeals to cornballs, idiots and try hards.

Doesn't shock me people take him seriously.

 

[NotAnFBIagent]

Yall heard they coming out with touch screen phones soon?
Lets discuss

[Drones]

They tried to clown him so he ethered them while spitting facts at the same time. Many people caught strays and thecoli was butthurt for weeks

Pretty much this. Dame said a bunch of real shyt for people who weren't going to get their feelings hurt from constructive criticism. Those who did get their feelings hurt took what he said about jobs and having a boss personally and disregarded his message completely. Genius is rarely appreciated in its time.

 

[At30wecashout]

The best thing about that interview was the quotables, which are funny to this day.

He spit some facts, nothing that I dont think anyone over the age of 25 wouldnt know, but the

Breakfast club asked about Jay and got Dame started on some other shyt. He ended up spending most of the interview sonning them. However wellmeaning he wanted to be, he came off as a chatty, disruptive blabber mouth who likes to speak just so people will acknowledge him.
