Dame is telling on himself. He sold his share of Rocafella and Rocawear … No one forced him to. He chose that.
"Dream as big as you want because are free. Don't dream cheap" EPIC QUOTE. If you do dream cheap ask yourself why. I'll be on this show.
Dame has always been a mentor for me and many others from afar. Continue doing what you're doing and much love to your fan.

Again in what game? Pillars hold the weight of things up my guy. Dame been out the music business for years so you can’t be talking about that. When it comes to music Jay and Diddy are pillars captains of the industry while dame a has been. I think the word you were searching for is legend but a pillar he is not.

@mrsmith3869 I care about what Dame has to say as well. Dame is a smart, good businessman, motivated & hustler. However when Dame said he told Irv to stay out of his business once he found out that Irv put together the Jay's Got ur self/super ugly freestyle the thing is that wasn't Dame's business it was Jay's business that he had with Nas.

@@user-bj2cv3ii9uit was dames business, because Jay and dame were partners, and jays beef w/ Nas was affecting the bottom line of the business that Dame was a co-owner of. If rocafella looks bad, it loses money. Which is also Dames money.

@@Fashionhustler I disagree, now if Irv was trying to advise Jay on business moves or business discussions that Roc-A-fell should do then yes that would be Irv interfering in Dame's & Bigg's business. Yet Irv just strap together the Got ur self a gun beat & the super ugly beat for Jay. The popular opinion is that Nas won the battle between him & Jay, yet those sentiments of Jay losing the battle didn't lose any money for Roc-A-Fella. Dame is just upset about Irv making comments on Drink Champs about what he think cause the split between him, Jay & Biggs.

@@user-bj2cv3ii9u incorrect. They were in the business of selling “music”. They literally make money selling music. The two are not separate. So, If Irv put the battery in jays back, to make a dis song (music), without Dames consent or knowledge, that’s literally interfering with Dames business. And, music is based on coolness and reputation. The moment an artist loses their cool factor, their music stops selling and they make no money. Example: vanilla ice and hammer both sold millions of records before the public perceived them as corny. Where are they now? Exactly. So, in the 1990’s era of gangster hiphop, taking a loss could’ve chipped away out the public perception of rocafella. Which, in a round about way, that loss was a part of its demise, and why Jay jumped ship and sabotaged the brand and threw Dame under the bus. Their visions were no longer in alignment. And both of them chasing Aaliyah didn’t help either. It’s all connected.
The art of being a good interviewer is knowing when to STFU and not interrupt a good story building up! Very rare talent!
If you listen to Dame he gives a lot of game for real

Amazing interview, 2legends and love the energy of Dames wifey, you can see the real energy connection and exchange throughout and I agree with dame about the collar neck on shirts

Dame Dash is like Dj sbu in south africa, they fight for young people. They put so many people on, yet underrated because they choose to be independent.
33:23 pause, let's start what really kicked the streetwear from the music, hip-hop, a dude name kenlo Players University, Cross Colours, Karl Kani, and if you watch Billions, there's a quack doc, sporting Kani, Fubu on Bel Air, last season character jazzy was rocking it.
Willie Esco baseball jersey is a classic
Nas is a Legend
Mr. Dash thank you for the motivation
This was dope 🤷🏿♂️💯🤙🏿
Because of Dame I became the person who will never work for another person
Raquel and Dame Dash are beautiful. I was listening 🎧 to him more and i was doing better . Now im allowing anger to overtake me so i have to go back to listening 🎧 to one if my life coaches
Amazing conversation. 🎉
Two Legends! 👏🏽👏🏽
Yell do know Rocawear clothing mainly made in Mainland China! Thanks to China's contributions to Hip-Hop
Once Jay did the deal with reebok I knew the bomb was lit for Rocawear to fall I had a clothing store in Romulus from 1998 - 2002 and saw the rise but saw the road get split
Talking tough on the KZread 'bout what you used to do But that's old school to the new crew They doing numbers like Sudoku They're the new you, and it's damn near inevitable They'll experience déja vu too Fight and you'll never survive Run and you'll never escape, so just fall from grace Damn...(fallin american gangster )

Dame Dash is always something interesting. I learn new things in all of his interviews.
I bought both clothing lines and loved it especially rocawear
Yesss willie esco I had the shiny Jean suit in n jhs 2003 Brooklyn baby 🔥🔥🔥
Salute Willie ! Esco at magic in Vegas!
I recognize all of the speech provided with the flavors and tastes of urban streetwear. Like lloyd banks said ‘stay dangerous’, meaning youre looking at a pipeline from the most expensive to the LEAST. We love to save but when can we spend(thesis?)
God bless Damian Dash
Pelle Pelle was a Detroit brand not Chicago. Started off as Gandoff leather in Birmingham,MI. I used to design for their biggest competitor.

@@pedrogates3189he was worth a 100 million but he didn’t have a hundred million liquid until he left Dame. Dame went as far as he could go with what he knew and Jay was savvy enough to see the writing on the wall and he parted ways. And if you call losing lawsuit’s, multiple business failures, having your homes foreclosed, and being jailed for Child Support and running to another state to escape New York because you got so many cases successful than you can have at it. The only reason why this ninja drop’s knowledge or talks about Jays is because he’s not doing anything noteworthy. His movies are Doo doo 💩 and his clothes are wack.

Fun fact about Dame… lol, He is a Taurus male that knows that Capricorn women are his rock. Aaliyah, Rachel and Rocky allll Cappys! #Capricorngang 💪🏾
There was Street close connected to hip hop the flag girl in fly Guy we're always fashion icons if they wore dapper Dan originals from back in the 70s and 80s or any other of the individuals throughout the country that would doing clothes that were specifically under a hip-hop genre then you have the b-boys and b-girls who were dressing you know for their dance and breaking competitions those crews dressed very Urban but there were no labels that specifically did that because even designers like Willie wear didn't have the Morro Bay nor hip-hop centered stylization yet
Dame needs to learn when you ask a question, allow the person to finish their answer before you present the next question. DAMN
