Whats Riff Raff got to do with anything.. 
why wouldn't he try to manage either, honestly.. this the same dude who brought De la, and Mos Def to the table.. produced for & managed numerous folks back in the day.. he's clearly got an eye for talent..
Bronson "dumped" him, to be with a multi-media company, who's interest in hip-hop was extremely shallow, until "underground hip-hop" was cool..
back to my point.. no one would be fukkin with Bronson like that, if he didn't have a cooperate push of Vice/Complex.. they have huge shares in multiple media facets.. if it were anyone else- people would be screaming he's a industry plant..
you trying to say Complex/Vice has a ear for talent..?
their strictly marketing.. whether it be fake Jackass content, a pseudo-Ghostface rapper, or whatever it may be.. he's basically, their new Andrew W.K.. which I don't understand is so hard to grasp..
Dante is still good in the industry.. not the fake shyt of the last few years.. hell, most the industry fake anyways.. of course they gonna talk down on real cats.. that's what fake people do.. his longevity & resume speaks volumes.. can't say that for a lot of these fake industry cats, whatsoever..
I don't disagree with alot of what you've said. Some of what you've said isn't quite on the mark but that's neither here nor there.
I brought up Riff Raff because it was another of the new crop of artists who had a buzz that Dante tried to "manage" who did some funnystyle shiit and dumped him.
I respect what Dante did 20 yrs ago. I respect his intellect. Like I said I've had many convos with him about different things including alot of behind the scenes things about artists he's helped give a platform and fuccked it up.
Action had alot of demons around him when he started getting a buzz 2 years ago. Dante got to him early. I've seen Dante literally rip dude away from some of these devils who was trying to get in his ear and take him away.
Dante did alot for Action. Definitely helped get him a bigger platform and connections. I didn't like how Bronson dumped him or would scream on him in public when they were together.
