The real reason Rocafella broke up is because Hov didn't want Biggs around- Dame Dash

Dame giving y'all the real story

There were rumors back then all the Roc signings post 2001 was all Dame & Jigga didn't want none of them on the label

Jigga wouldn't be where he is without a push from Dame (marketing) and Biggs (funding)

Dame pushed Kanye, not Jigga

I believe Biggs EP'd the Young Gunz first album
Biggs is responsible for and pushed Kanye not dame. Matter of fact biggs was running the roc at the time , dame was doing rocawear.



While dame is over there being passive aggressive and insinuating jay is guilty Biggs is the total opposite. And it’s even more fukked up since dame was accused of sexual assault back In the mid 2000s

Go watch the Kanye documentary that was on netflix

Dame gave Kanye a placement as a rapper on the paid in full soundtrack (fall 02)

Dame was the catalyst behind Kanye signing to Rocafella, not Jigga or Biggs

I could see Biggs having direct involvement with the College Dropout album bc he was also working on Young Gunz album that came out same timeframe as Kanye

Dame himself said Biggs was the responsible for Kanye. He did several interviews when watch the throne came out shytting on jay and ye. Saying ye doesn’t look out for Biggs who was locked up at the time. And it was fukked up because he’s the one the really believed in him. It’s funny because all these years same played it like he discovered ye. Biggs was runnin rocafella around that time dame was into fashion and hanging with Victoria beckham

Probably what he told that nikka. But in reality he didn’t wanna share with none of them nikkaz cause he didn’t need them and they was liabilities. Biggs was up 30+ mill and still selling weed lol

Regarding the bold, how do we know this?

im a if it walks like a duck... kinda cat


his conduct suggested he wasn't up no 30+ mil

It's not that deep. Both Atlantic and Def Jam wanted Jay-z as President.
It was huge career upgrade. It would be like going from owning 1/3rd of a local supermarket to running Walmart. Who says no to that?
