DAMON DASH AIRS OUT JIGGA IN 'KING' MAGAZIN
Things got really ugly during the last days of Roc-A-Fella
records when partners Damon Dash and Shawn "Jay-Z" Carter
were still calling the shots.
For the first time in public, Dash puts all the mess on the table
via an interview in the upcoming issue of King magazine.
"My best friend did some shit to me that I never thought
in a million years he would do, It was straight war in there.
Either you on Jay's side or Dame's side" Dash says of Jay-Z.
Dash and Jay-Z ran Roc-A-Fella before it was acquired by
Def Jam in 2004. Suggesting that Jay eventually attempted to
push him aside, Dash explains: "The perception is that Def Jam
bought Roc-A-Fella. Jay's the president of Def Jam. I'm
Bin Laden. You could either be with Bin Laden or be
with [Jay-Z]. … You know what I'm saying?"
"Remember they put in the paper that I lost my deal?
That wasn't true,"he continues. "They tried to freeze my projects.
We'd go to [the office] and they'd have my picture, saying not to
let us in the building. …I was painted as a violent guy."
When it's all said and done, Dash admits that the pair's
history-making run can not be ignored.
"I don't respect what he did, but I'm not gonna let that wash
away all the other stuff we did do," he said.
"For the most part, he's a good nigga."

Ummm Dame's... well if you want to be taken seriously by

Jay or the big wigs i the industry as a whole you may wanna

start off by not calling peers "niggas" informal interviews.

Just a suggestion.
