Stupid azz Dame fukked over Spitta…


Bad business at that.



Dude should have had a shrewd person running the Roc while he stayed in the shadows

Breh it just blows my mind, my man actually had a second...not a 5th time at this business shyt and his ego just downright fukking sucks :why: . Its simple elements that most folks that are in that position fail to see. My man had the fukking roster of potential greats and even one of the best producers of all time *Ski Beatz* on the boards...all this dude had to do was the following:

  • STFU AND STAY IN THE BACK
  • Take the L with the living quarters *heavy investments, while you gonna have to ride the Prius*
  • Keep the energy of the Roc Dame onto the paperwork and heavy marketing *not so much being the main character*
  • Sit back and trust the process
Like it just blows my mind of how these "business" men don't see such things, while the ones such as myself see the shyt in an instant, and I'm not even in the industry. It's frustrating to see heads with money fukk it up, while those that know what to do with it just get the short change.

Yes, I'm hating because Dame is the walking epitome of bad karma and juju. You had a dynasty, a streaming platform, and an opportunity to make a huge killing with selling the most important album of all time and HE fukkS IT ALL UP :mindblown:

This …. Always said suge and dame have had the biggest downfalls In hiphop history… and I stand by that can’t think of anyone else apart from those 2 that’s had a harder fall from grace in the hiphop world …..
I think Diddy surpassed. Lost Ciroc, raided by feds, outted as a bisexual, woman-beating deviant, possibly had Pac and others killed, became an internet meme, and will probably go to jail for something in the near future. All because he couldn't shut up either...he couldn't shut up...

Texas Rappers are still balling…


Johnny Dang is still in business as well.


Down South rappers are still ballin as well.



Beans should have followed Jay’s lead and played his position as well. He could have been the original poster child for reform.

Folks give Bleek and Yay flack but they’re still eating.
I really believe Ross is having the career Jay wanted Sigel to have. Sig just couldn't stay out the streets.

There's no reason Dame shouldn't have and couldn't have a few low millions coming in every year; he's one of the most successful music executives of the last 30 years. He could've moved on to being an executive elsewhere. He could've still been an artist manager. I actually understand his belligerence, because sometimes you have to yell to get people to hear you, but it's gotta be give and take. You can't shyt on everyone and move the way he moved.

Buddy is where he's at for no other reason than himself. He keeps throwing Jay’s name under the bus, but if there's anyone that had a hand in blackballing Dame, it was Lyor Cohen, but that's not headline grabbing news. It won't get him interviews. And if we being honest, as much of a snake as Lyor is, Lyor has reasons for moving like that.

Jay would probably check you behind the scenes, Dame would probably be belittling you while critiquing you.



Lyor Cohen has connections in the industry so I can believe it.


Dame had no issues hugging up on that couch with Lyor like a hoe but hates him now that he got kicked out the whip

The new artist that Dame is promoting seem like just another bad idea. He's onto some odd lezbian rap now.

I'm also trying to figure out if that streaming platform is his or not.

I remember Dame said the same thing on an MTV special back in the day talking about how rappers go broke. He was saying $1 million wasn't a lot and broke it down in explaining how rappers go broke.

I'll never forget Mayweather's assistant saying that she went with Mayweather to the mall and he had a fresh pair of addias and took them off just to buy a new pair of the same exact sneakers that he was wearing only to leave behind the ones he was wearing.

Dame's problem was that he didn't continue to generate the same amount of income after the Jay-Z train left the station.

Mayweather makes the same dumb decisions as Dame. The only thing saving him is he makes so much money every time he fights.

Yeah diddy on his way to be top tier but suge still top place suge came out in 2001 and it was a downward spiral from then on after …. puffy lasted 20 plus years until his empire has started crashing down and he still has money (for now ) suge is almost broke and has to do another 10 years before he might get out and he might die within that time period…..

Breh whatever happened to DDMG :why: ?!?

When dude had Curren$y and em, along with some thought provoking innovative shyt, I was locked in. That should have been the money maker.

How we go from that to a net worth of a hundred grand?!?
Currnsy left because dame was shopping his album without telling him

Dame had wiz and krit and stalley


Lost them all

Beans had the ultimate set up

A cartoon
A clothing line
Features
But he kept going to jail

He would have been amazing if he could just chill


Even without jay he could have been on the way up

And the crazy thing is social media and the internet has made so many people gullible and dumb that cats like Dame are the people they defend and think everyone else they burn bridges with is the problem. Lol
Yeah I ageee with this …. I’ve seen so many interviews and read some ov the comments and they alll defend same as you put it and make out the other person is the issue…. I don’t always agree with vlad I watch some of his content it’s dope … but I definitely agree with him like he has stated that every person dame has worked with has a hard time dealing with him then eventually breaks ties with him …..am pretty sure am not tipping that there was a video clip of dame in the middle of a room in a chair looking alll depressed sayin sorry to jay and others a couple years ago or am I tripping ??? Then months later went back to his usual a$$hole self …. He won’t change and that’s why he will never ever be in any type of positive position in hiphop ever again ….

Agree

I always said Suge should have been Jerry Buss with pac/dre/snoop and others has the showtime lakers

But he turned into Donald Sterlings and bad business, fukked up mentality which cause him to lose everything

Damn dame

He owe like 9 mill in taxes
Was worth like 50m’s at one point. According to Google, his net worth as of today is predicted to be at 100k

He need to reinvent himself and get paid by going the humble/sympathy route
Write some books start a podcast on why not to be an a$$hole when you up. May be to late for that but he need a team behind him and he need to shut up and listen to them. Time to put pride to the side and see who will help him bounce back.

I hope he go to therapy because his fall is some depressing shyt
Agreed, it seemed and at times still seems like he has a hundred different avenues to bounce back. These guys were some of the first to have their own label, make films, have a clothing line, Armadale Vodka, etc. Dame was/is a Grade A azzhole, but he was still ahead of the curve in most areas and seemingly on top of his game from what I could tell.

At worst I thought he'd grab a couple of Bronx drill rappers and try to start it all over again. Could've easily started up some new Harlem sh*t. Create reality TV projects. Had film connects, linked in with Lee Daniels, etc. But It's that nasty ego and vile treatment of others that clouded his mind, f*cked up his thought process, and closed doors in his face. The motor oil, trying to start a streaming service that "will take out Netflix" and other schemes came next. It does add up and make sense, but at the same time it doesn't add up imo. A lot of Hollywood execs are scumbags & pieces of sh*t, but they still had/have alternate moves and plans to keep the ball rolling somehow & somewhere.
