Memphis Bleek Recalls Trying To Warn Dame Dash Before His Split W/ Jay Z

[MarloStanTrill]

nikka please.

According to Biggs cashing out the Roc was the plan from the jump, stop looking for an excuse to be a crab.

and you sound like a dikk rider, you love the attention huh

 

[The God Poster]

Its obvious the label bosses preferred dealing with jay. He was handed the rocawear deal. For all of this talk of being a great businessman he basically just cashed out the whole ROC dynasty. Fast forward to today and he's trying to trick people into buying tidal subscriptions by holding albums hostage. Its funny the dudes who dikk ride jay in this situation are the kind of people I would not like to be around.

Hip hop lost when the ROC broke up. Black men will never have that level of power in the music industry again.

do you take this same stance with the other streaming companies?

do you take this same stance with the other streaming companies?

im trying to figure why ppl are so offended. if jays puts a product on tidal as a exclusive he;s a dikk

Of course they don't.

You can't escape karma. Outside of 35+ year old Stans who look at jigga as a father figure, jay is almost irrelevant. Young artists aren't clamoring for features, no ones remaking his hits, if it wasn't for Beyonce he would have vanished into thin air after the def jam debacle. The only artist associated with jay still eating is kanye and letting him rap on the ROC was Dame's idea.

The feminization of black men is disgusting. Jay selling out combined with the fall of murder inc, the neutering of j prince by the feds (which may all be related if you believe the conspiracy) benefitted the fukk outta Jay, but left the door wide open for white execs to take advantage of young fatherless black men who have never learned to be asassertive. fukk Jay Z (in my PAC voice)

You talmbout what c-grade artists are or aren't still able to eat off Jay's name when the truth of the matter is the only ones that really deserve to would be Kante and Beans....and one couldn't stay his ass out of jail/drama (watch him blame Jay for this as well).

Meanwhile he's making nikkas millionaires away from rap music (you know...in ways that are sustainable and more potential for ripple effects) while some crab nikkas on a message board pontificate about his "karma" and how ALMOST irrelevant he is as a 50 year old rapper who will undoubtedly go plat when his next project drops....

I used to side with Dame but over the past few years i can see why nobody fukks with him..Not saying Hov is completely innocent like his stans think but Dame is something else man..I started looking at him different after that whole Curren$y/DD172 thing

What u said would be valid except for artists like busta, bun b, fat joe , nas, and s lot of other legends still resonate with the youth and collaborate with them.

And smh c list or not that was still black men eating and feeding their family. That's actually one of the things I missed about the 90s and early 00s, nikkas putting on their homeboys. A lot of them were ass but we got some notable verses and personalities. Hip hop now is bland boring and soulless like post black album jay z...

You think Jay-Z gives a damn about ASAP Ferg or Rae Sremmurd features?

Naw man, 2Pac fukked up quite a few of his songs putting talent-less nikkas on.

But there's a way of being an a$$hole and STILL be respected that Dame f'd up... I know for a fact people at my job hate me and some call me an a$$hole but they respect me and don't mind dealing with me because they know most of the time I'm right, I make sense and I know my job and what I'm doing. And I show them they wrong without making them feel like $hit ... Dames problem was he couldn't dis you nicely and that's how he burned the bridges.

in business ... You don't need to loved you need to be necessary

Fixed

I agree 100% He took the money, over being his own boss. Jay-Z has this thing where he is obsessed with gaining cac approval (references to abstract painters, tom ford, etc) He aint even talking to US anymore, and hasnt been for over 10 years.

iN OTHER WORDS: JAY-Z IS AND HAS BEEN A SELLOUT. JUST A SELLOUT WHO CAN RAP WELL. NO MORE, NO LESS.

I love how broke nikkas know how everything works

He a sell out because he likes art and sold his businesses?
You do realize most of these large businesses are made with the intention to sell right?

Didn't tidal start that fukk shyt?

 

[OGBobbyJohnson]

IIRC..Dame released Muscle Car Chronicles without his permission after Curren$y had signed a new contract with Warner Bros & owed Curren$y some bread & he sued Dame..They ended up settling the lawsuit late last yr for like 3 mil after like 3 yrs of legal rambling..And he lost the DD172 building in Tribeca which was an art gallery/studio..Employees who worked at the gallery later claimed Dame owed them bread too..& the sad part is he had a dope collective of artists that used to fall thru DD172..Wiz before he blew up,Curren$y, Jay Elec, Mos Def, Big Krit, Asher Roth, Sir Michael Rocks, Stalley, Mickey Factz, Smoke Dza, Tabi Bonney, Black Keys, Ski Beatz...& I think the only one who still fukks with him to this day is Dza

what actually happened with that

He should give a fukk. Cuz right now when I think of jay zs fan base all I can picture is ass snakes wearing ill fitting suits and button ups...

Which is 100% preferable to a fanbase that thinks this is acceptable. What Jay-Z look like at this point in his life trying to mix with these young dudes and whatever tip they on right now.
