Your life really can't be this miserable, bro.
Miserable is making up shyt outta your ass for no apparent reason about people you don't know :mjlol:

These dudes lived together, hustled together, their families know each other, he's mentioned on damn near every album since 96 and you wanna lie about them not being close. Like why :dahell::mindblown:

I get it, bro.

Life is rough. You come on here to feel like you matter. I understand. But you gotta do better, my guy. Being an embarrassment on here 24/7 ain't gonna change sh*t for you when you log off. Chill with the antics. They're not helping you.

The only thing that I'm embarrassed of is that I'm replying to some Tanner from Nebraska in here trolling people. Not even reddit have trolls like this in 2024 :scust:

No normal man could lie about a celeb and his relatively unknown/out of the limelight/calm and relaxed childhood, partner and family friend weren't actually real friends. Not even the wildest of Nas stans used to do that, at least it would be some lie about Beyonce, Beanie Sigel, Kanye or someone like that :dahell:


This boy just in here throwing disinformation regarding the most pointless things.

People be acting like Jay Z and Dame dash were lifelong childhood friends who grew up in the sandbox :mjlol: Nah they were introduced as adults by a third party to potentially start a business


Dame ain’t Ty Ty or Emory or B high etc like actual day 1’s. Hes not even Irv Gotti who knew Jay since the Reagan administration

He was never his best friend. Ty Ty was/is

Ty is a day 1 guy

Ty wasn't around as much after '93.

Those who were actually around, know this. This is when Jay started hanging around uptown a lot. When he met Dame, they got so close, that they both agreed to make each other the godfathers of their first sons. Ty wouldn't come back around for another couple years. When Jay was always coming up to 1199, he wasn't even speaking to Ty or E then. For a minute. Jay used to always tell us Dame was his "best friend" and "#1 brother". Which is exactly why Dame is so hurt because he was telling Dame the same sh*t.

My OG was the one who introduced Dame and Jay. When Jay came to the block to meet Dame, we were all there, as kids. From that day, those two were together all the time. When they went to get the bread to start the label, and had to drive over to see Haven, only two people went, Dame and Jay. We were all on 140th and 7th before they went to see dude. He and Dame were wild close back then. He didn't grow up with him, but when the ship started moving, if you saw Jay, Dame was with him. It was that way for years. Everybody that was around back then, knows that.

Sounds to me like they were business associates more than anything.

Depends on who you ask.

Jay said Dame was his best friend and his brother. Dame said the same about Jay. Other people like Sauce, Haven, Jaz, and mad people say Jay uses people to get what he needs and cuts them off when they become useless to him. It's all up in the air.

I just remember a time when these dudes were mad close and making history together. So none of us who got a chance to be there for that like seeing them in this weird place they're in today. It's just wack to see when you have respect for both of them. It's like Ras Kass said recently, because he was there too, "they were family, you just hope they work it out".

Well, all I know is that aside from DeHaven, all Jay's day one nikkas are still there and all them nikkas is rich. Sometimes you gotta keep your inner circle real tight.

Dame and Jay just always seemed like oil and water from the outside looking in. Sometimes that yin and yang works in a relationship but in most cases it doesn't. Jay seems reserved and calculated, Dame is the exact opposite.

It's the same for both of them.

They basically just stick with their OG crews now. Roc kinda got split in 1/2. Some of them cross over and deal with both Dame and Jay, but the ones that Jay gave jobs to, for the most part, stopped speaking to Dame once they got on payroll. Like Biggs. Before Jay hired him, he wasn't even speaking to Jay. He was in constant contact with Dame, and Dame was helping him financially. Then Jay brought him in, and he stopped speaking to Dame.

There's a lot of weird sh*t going on. But most of us who have stayed cool with both just hope they squash all the nonsense and get back to being good again.
