What's there to respond for Combat? Combat has mentioned this plenty of times before. As i said before it's always you goofy nikkas who have no real knowledge that do the most yapping - including about "cacs in the business" or "street rep" or whatever the fukk it is. Combat Jack been on for like 4 years now. Dude has constantly mentioned it before.

how come Dame doesn't have a black lawyer 
Just off personality, I don't know a person can be around Dame. Every conversation he has turns into a lecture where he talks 90% of the time. It has to be exhausting.
That Vlad interview where he was trying to diminish Warren Buffet's accomplishments as an investor.
I am embarrassed for the man.
I am embarrassed for the man.
see a pattern
Grown men with childish tendencies hang around him.
How many adults with real life responsibilities (His debts are public for God Sake) are on the corner all day with their "friends" screaming we stick together?
Can you imagine Jay-Z or Nas literally in Marcy or Queens Bridge at this moment in their adult lives screaming "MARCY STICKS TOGETHER, QUEENSBRIDGE STICKS TOGETHER"
We gotta get Damon help. He's getting older physically but mentally dude is regressing. He wasn't on the corner as a grown man last decade yelling "We stick together" so how on Gods earth did you transition to do that kind of behavior later in life?
FFW a few seconds before and you can hear the impact meeting with Dame had on his mother.
"We got the book, the cologne, the underwear, the sun glasses"
Now if Lyor would've done it first he would be a vulture but since Damon looks the same as ODB its ok for him to exploit the man who was unhealthy on probation and dying.
Listen brothers and sisters who read or lurk here.. We gotta do better as a people
There is no difference between a black snake and a white snake. NONE!
I was about to post this. I remember Divine being taken back by Dame's actions. He literally stole oDB from Wutang productions and didn't give a fukk. RZA wanted to ODB to get back to civilian life and stay away from cameras untill he was acclimated to being free.

I think Dame is in a unique position.
He's taken a lot of heat for being an a$$hole, but he's really in a space now where he can say things or ask the questions that other people want to, but are scared to. A lot of people are "playing the game" and they're worried about the checks coming. When you make a lot of noise, the checks stop coming. Dame is probably sure that he's done in music, as far as being where he once was, so he can really say whatever he wants now. He's independent, so it's not like he's going to get anything taken away from him. I applaud the honesty. He's gonna annoy people, but I can never knock a cat for speaking their mind or from the heart. We need more of that in Hip Hop.
On the Combat Jack point about him drawing up those shady contracts, didn't he say that Tragedy was his client and had him do the same thing to CNN? And I remember Nore saying that he and Capone got jerked in that deal with Tragedy too. So there was definitely some funny business poppin' with the legals back then. Dame might be onto something with that one.

1. Why wouldn't you want to hear his life story? He goes through all guests life stories why the fukk wouldn't he keep the consistency for one of the most known executives in music?
. He ran through Dame's story when he was there the first time, Dame is exactly like Cohen but Cohen did a lot more for hiphop and had a lot more success (in music).2. In order to defend himself, with regards to not being hiphop bla bla we need to know who the fukk he is in first place.

I am the lawyer on deck in the video. It became necessary for me to reply to this thread because of serious factual inaccuracies and misrepresentations made by Combat Jack with respect to statements I allegedly made to him.
Here is the quote by Combat Jack that I am addressing today:
Lets be clear on a few facts.
I was Damon Dash's general counsel for 3 years and I moved on in May 2013. Since that time I have referred him several other attorneys whom I have supervised in their representation of Dame. So that there's no confusion, Dame paid me for my services while I was in his employ. When I left in May 2013, Dame did not owe me a dime of salary.
Referred by Marvin Barksdale, I met Combat Jack for the first time for a 5 minute meeting over coffee 5 years ago. At that meeting he offered me an opportunity to succeed him as Dame's attorney. At the time I was inspired by the opportunity to be exposed to new challenges in the music, art, fashion, and entertainment industries and more importantly learn from a mentor of legendary status whom I believed in and respected. I want it to be clear that I appreciate the opportunity from Combat Jack. It changed my life and I am grateful. However, Combat Jack and I have had virtually no contact or discussion since that day we met and had coffee.
Combat Jack did not reach out to me once in the past five years from the time I took the position until this last Tuesday when he sent me a text informing me about the clip at http://ow.ly/zsMHU. The entire “text discussion” between Combat Jack and I came on the heels of a major disagreement Dame and I had a few days earlier and I admittedly vented some of my frustrations to Combat Jack. I realize now that was a mistake. I was shocked to learn that Combat Jack had distorted my comments and misquoted me in a blatant attempt to further his own agenda. I did not expect him to use me.
Combat Jack is a trained attorney and a journalist. For him to incorrectly and materially misstate my texts to him in the posting I quoted above is extremely troublesome, irresponsible and disrespectful to me professionally and personally.
More specifically, I never said I was "about to sue Dame for all types of unpaid salary and physical threats to [my] person." The conversation is on record through text messages and this comment does not exist nor does any reference to me potentially suing Dame exist. Furthermore, as previously stated, Damon does not owe me any unpaid salary. The conversation is on record through text messages and this comment does not exist. I am troubled by the lack of accuracy and the statements that are not merely taken out of context but that are actually patently false.
One final quote I found troubling--"I detest going at my own people but Dame is sheisty. Ask his unpaid employees who work on some Chinese sweat shop status with no salary benefit and free meals."
This language is not only inaccurate it's quite a bit incendiary. I know hyperbole is an accepted thing in the world of media and journalism but in my world of law and business a lack of clarity can be fatal. The Poppington gallery is hardly a sweatshop, and the truth is I have had some awful bosses and Dame was not one of them. Dame has created as many opportunities for others as anyone I have ever been around. Combat Jack and I are certainly on that list of people who should be grateful for those opportunities Dame has provided.
In my view Combat Jack has a responsibility as a role model and a journalist to be more careful with his words. As in all high power business relationships Dame and I have bumped heads many times before as he himself attests to in the video at . While it is true that I made some emotionally charged comments to Combat Jack in the moment, I never threatened to sue Dame and I never even insinuated that there was any unpaid salary. I'm still very confused as to where these patently untrue statements came from.
I cannot speak for Combat Jack as to what his motivations are for these recent comments. Nor will I allow another man to speak for me on my behalf. This principal has been a catalyst for me to lend some clarity to the situation.
Bottom line is that we are all grown men here. In the future, it is my expectation that Combat Jack will let me speak for myself and not twist my words against me for his benefit.
