: A few months ago, media reports were swirling that Dame Dash was on the brink of financial disaster. According to the reports, the hip hop mogul's fortune was being depleted by his lavish spending and a series of failed business ventures (including his wife's fashion line).
But despite losing millions, Dame still had enough money to comfortably live out the rest of his life. That was, until a few weeks ago, when Dame learned that he would have to cough up close to $5M in back taxes or face time in jail (Two of the numerous warrants against Dash for tax evasion are below).
MediaTakeOut.com spoke with someone claiming to be familiar with Dash's finances. And that person claims that Dame's lawyers negotiated a plea deal with NY and NJ officials which would have Dash pay close to $5M in back taxes and penalties. The insider explains, "Damon [Dash] is facing a criminal investigation for tax evasion. [They] wanted to send him to jail, but his lawyers managed to get a deal [whereby Dame] paid back the taxes he owed."
The one problem with the deal was - Dame didn't have $5M in cash on hand. So the former RocaFella mogul asked for help from the unlikeliest of sources - his former partner Jay Z.
The insider tells MediaTakeOut.com, "Damon reached out to Jay Z - and without blinking an eye, Jay Z agreed to help him ... It took a lot for [Dame] to reach out to [Jay Z] like that. But it took even more for [Jay Z] to give him the money." The insider added, "They may have had they're problems in the past, but they're like brothers - and [Jay Z] wasn't about to let his brother go to prison."

GOOOOD MOUNING MTO FAM , OLD BLOGGERS & NEW BLOGGERS & TO THE NEW BLOGGERS WELCOME TO THE MADHOUSE.LOL
Dont get it twisted people, You best beleive if JAY did give this funny syle ass ni.gga DAME a loan best belive that JAY has some type of bisness claus in it so that if DAME doesnt pay JAY back then JAY would get a peice of DAME'S company to that degree.

I've never been one to laugh at a man when he's down, especially a black man...but Dame needed to humble himself a LONG time ago. Jay rhymed about it, and it was pretty evident in Dame's demeanor in interviews. I know Harlem Hustlas got a little c.ockiness in em anyway...but him, Cam, Jones, Elz...they push it to the limit and it has become annoying.
LMFOOOOOOOOO @ DIS ISH! DAME BE TALKIN ALL DAT SH!T ABOUT POPPIN TAGS ANS STAYN FRESH AND THIS NI%@A IS REALLY B-R-O-K-E! HIS AZZ AIN'T NUTTIN WITHOUT JAY! LIKE JAY SAID.... I HEARD [EXPLETIVE] SAYIN THEY MADE HOV SO OKKKKKKKK MAKE ANOTHA HOV DEN DAME. HE'S SO LAMMMMMMMME. DAMMIT I WISH I HAD MY YAHOO FACE ON HERE....LMFAO!!!! I NEVA LIKE DAME COCKY AZZ N E WAY........NEXTTTTTTTTTT
DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE DAME DASH IS DONE
WOW!!! THIS IS AN UNFORTUNATE AND VERY SERIOUS MATTER,ESPECIALLY KNOWING THAT THEY HAVE A FAMILY TO TAKE CARE OF...BUT THIS IS WHAT CAN EASILY HAPPEN WHEN TAXES ARE EVADED,POOR BUSINESS DEALS/INVESTMENTS ARE MADE AND CONSTANT OVER-THE-TOP SPENDING OCCUR KNOWING ALL THIS CAN SIMPLY BE AVOIDED AND MONITORED. OH WELL,THIS WILL TEACH HIM A LESSON A BEING WAY MORE CAUTIOUS AS WELL AS RESPONSIBLE. BY THE WAY,HAVNG TO LIVE AN AVERAGE LIFESTYLE ISN'T ALL THAT BAD..HEHE..EVEN THOUGH IT'LL BE TOUGH AFTER BEING USED ON LIVING IN THE LAP OF LUXURY!!
so does that mean they are cool again or what its just a money thing.............. go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171 go to www.myspace.com/dot171
I DONT BELIEVE THIS FOR ONE SECOND!!!! Dame Dash facing jail time for back taxes is NEWS just like it was news when Ronald Isley got busted for it???? Im thinking it would be a KNOWN issue from other resources than MTO and regardless of their pasts together CLEARLY Jay and Dame arent so cool.... Cause that pic is YEARS old MTO!!!!! Get some FACTS and then post a REAL story!!
That's a prime example of that ole frase NEVER BITE THE HAND THAT FEEDS YOU!!!!. You never know when you might need a person. Whatever happened between those two is obviously squashed because if Jay was mad or still had beef with Damon he wouldn't of never reached out to him, and if Damon knew Jay wasn't the kind hearted person he was he wouldn't of never ask him for help. So I tip my hat off to Jay for being a friend in a time of need and pushing all that other bull to the side. Maybe this would bring them back together. After all they were friends.
wow, I wonder how long hs wife hang in there with him. It sort of rings true with the LA house on the block. [link to external website]
THAT'S WHAT'S UP!!!SO NOW ALL THESE HATERS ON JAY CAN STOP!NOW WE SEE WHY JAY BROKE OFF FROM DAME HE ALWAYS WAS A ARROGANT [EXPLETIVE] AND THATS THE KIND OF [EXPLETIVE] THAT LEADS TO PEOPLE GOING BROKE!IM GLAD HE HAS MUCH LOVE TO SEE THAT HIS OLD PARTNER DON'T GO TO JAIL!MAYBE DAME WILL LISTEN AND FOLLOW BEHIND SOMEONE INSTEAD OF THINKING HE KNOWS IT ALL!IF YOU EVER SEEN THIS CAT ON TAPE,YOU'LL SEE WHAT I'M GETTIN AT!
if this is true..that was nice of jay, dame is arrogant and i'm sure it took a lot for him to do that..but [EXPLETIVE] sometimes u gotta do what u gotta do, even if it means swallowing your pride.
i don't understand why celebrities and rich people in general don't pay taxes! i mean, if u make that much..why not? quit being cheap. i'm sure they tax them out the azz...but so what? you'll get it bacc!
I'm not sure I buy this but it would kind of make sense since he is selling his house and also the fact that none of his business ventures have paid off. He even tried to make Victoria Beacham have a hot record and it flopped big time so basically without Jay he doesn't really have much.
Trust if Mike Tyson, Tony Braxton, master P and so many other millionaires went Bankrupt it is not impossible for Dame who has all these people to pay but nothing coming in to go broke as well.
Daaaamn, MTO - y'all need a calculator... those two documents clearly look like a little over 2.1 million to me... but maybe I can't add. Y'all be so busy lyin' and fabricating she-it, y'all typin' too fast to THINK about what ya typin' -
Advice: When you're gonna tell a lie, don't use illustrations, it's too easy to get caught.
The Bible: "Bless those that curse you..."
People lose money everyday with investments, Damon isn't above anyone else.
The one valuable lesson here is that either one these BLACK MAN'S PRIDE didn't get in the way. This is what true MATURE brotherhood should be about. Not holding on to petty @ss grudges, and no longer giving a damn about someone who was a close friend.
$5 million isn't going to hurt Jay-Z at all, and he proved that he is a real mature man and friend, because a lot of us would've just said, hell no and watch dude get dragged off to prison.
Am I my brother's keeper?
UwesizzY: you said maybe he should go to his late girlfriend's grave site and pray and maybe god will hear him? I just wanted to know did that make any sense to you..... cuz from my end that didn't sound right... Aaliyah's grave site didn't have anything to do with Damon being in trouble, and if he was gone pray to somebody yes it should of been God... Not Aaliyah.
Whateva MTO, "a source claiming to b familiar with Dame's finances" nobody from Dame's finances would talk to whack asss MTO about Dame, come on now.
If this is true, which i doubt, JZ gets some extra points for swallowing the past and helping out his friend, I'm not sure y Dame couldn't go to his wife, i've heard a few celebs call her name out on the red carpet. So somebody is buying her clothes, she should b helping him out. Y do celebs think they can get away with everything cuz their a celeb. I wonder how that phone call went between
Dame: Hello Jay-Z Jay-Z: Its Mr. Carter to you Dame: Mr. Carter, i need ur help Jay-Z: Not surprised, how much Dame: 5mill Jay-Z: That's it, money ain't a thang. Dame: Well it is for me, i'm broke and i'm going to jail. Jay-Z: u lucky its only 5mill, besides holding my umbrella i have to think of other ways for u to pay me. Dame:(In tears) anything, anything for u Massa Hov
i am glad he did that, perfect example look at juvenile he had to go to baby , and i am glad he was there for him no matter what had happened he made a way for his homeboy, no matter what status they were at the time, and dame and jay should either make up or go their own ways but jay should help his boy no matter what!!!!!!
I GUESS THIS SHOULD SET THINGS GOOD BETWEEN THEM BECAUSE THE REST OF THOSE JOKES DAME HANGS WITH ARE BROKE.
HOW IN THE [EXPLETIVE] DO YOU BURN THROUGH HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS LIKE THAT?
HE NEEDS TO DO SOME TIME TO LEARN A LESSON AND FAST!!!
I PRAY THIS WILL END ALL THAT STREET BEEF THEY GOT GOING WITH OTHER PEOPLE IN THE MIDDLE AS WELL.
Oh boo hoo hoo...poor arrogant azz Damon is now broke??? Good! Dumb phuck! Didn't learn nothing from MC Hammer huh??? I hope this humbling experience teaches this idiot to keep his mouth shut. I have no sympathy at all for this cat. Don't wish him harm but I ain't got no sympathy. And Jay...if you did help him kudos to you bro!
What Up MTO Fam!
I dont find it so hard to believe becuz Dame's CEO Clothing and Other Ventures are not movin like the Rocafella Empire he helped build. To be honest, I'm a big Jay-Z fan but I think He needs Dame and Vice Versa. Dame's label bricked and as you've heard Jay sold Rocawear. I thought the ROC was gonna last forever, but Money makes everyone change espicially those from the streets who came up with nothing!
Please yall people give me a break!!! Everybody saying that can't believe that Dame went to Jay-Z for financial help because he has to much pride. But what the [EXPLETIVE] ever, I rather ask Jay-Z for help than to spend time in prison. I don't give 2 shiits how many problems we had in the past. If we're not enemies now then I would put my pride to the side. That's whats wrong with you people today. Yall so concerned about what other people are going to think of you so you rather stay in a finacial bind and not ask for help. But think about what everybody is going to say once yo ass really fall off cuz you didn't wanna ask nobody for that extra money. I don't blam Dame, hell I would've ask Jay too
@plain_jane
I see you also read the Ving Rhames Bio lol!! I liked that saying too when I read his bio.
But I think that was big of Jay to do that, and I know Dame must feel like an ass for going to Jay after all the shiit that went down with them. Me personally, wouldn't of gave him a red cent. But it's good to know that Jay don't hold grudges.
[EXPLETIVE] JAYZ SHOULD HELP, RUTHLESS BASTARD! TALKIN ABOUT DAME IS LIKE HIS BROTHER, WELL I WOULDN'T WANT A BROTHER LIKE JAYZ WHO STOLE ROCAWEAR FROM HIM IN THE FIRST PLACE, HE DIDN'T CREATE ROCAWEAR BY HIMSELF, YET HE WAS ABLE TO WALK AWAY WITH THE WHOLE COMPANY.....BYTCH AS [EXPLETIVE], HE HELPED WITH THEM TAXES CAUSE HIS AZZ IS GUILTY OF A WHOLE LOT OF BULL SHYT WITH DAME, I HOPE ONE DAY HE GETS WHAT HE DESERVES, HE HAS FEEL LIKE HE GOT TO BE THE ONE HOLDING ALL THE CARDS....
I know this is off subject, but did anyone catch the roast of Flavor Flav last night?? That shiit was fuk'n hilarious!! They dissed the shiit outta the FOL girls especially Jimmy Kimmel. They were all @ a table getting mad and throwing up the middle finger. You have to see the repeats on Comedy Central. The ratings were so high that they repeated it 3x back to back! Look it up on youtube, that shiit was funny.
Then that nugga had the nerve to produce "State Property 2". My dumbazz boyfriend rented it. I couldn't even make it past the first ten minutes. How could you suck that bad and still continue filming? This dude is ridiculous. To me he was never interested in doing anything of quality, just make money. Apparently, he wasn't interested in paying the government either. Oh well, tough break azzhole.
@strongblackwoman
the funniest to me was Jimmy Kimmel, Snoop and Lisa Lampinelli(the white lady that loves sleeping with black men lol)but overall, everyone was real good and funny.
@c I watched Kimora the first night and couldn't watch no more cause she is too damn stuck up and bossy for me! I don't see how they can work for her w/o bopping her ass in the mouth! lol
Never Mind, I gotta stop reading the posts from the bottom up.
P.S. If I can butt in, that Kimora show is a pie in the face. The intro to the show says that I'll want to be her?? Its like she's saying "look at me in all my glory, how could you possibly be happy being you??" Kimora is not humble at all, her sense of humility is lost, the way she cuts off and devalues her staff is offensive. In so many ways Ms. Lee is blessed, but she is ugly in her personal ways and attitude. She sees it as being a fabulous black, single mother, no nonsense business woman. But I see it as being a snobby bitch.
MTO YA'LL BE ON SOME BULLS*IT. I DONT BELIEVE THAT DAME IS BROKE CUZ DAT NI**A MADE TOO MUCH DOUGH WHEN HE WAS WITH JAY. YEAH IN TROUBLE WITH THE LAW BUT THAT N*GGA GOT 5 MILLION TO PAY TO GET HIM OUT OF THIS CRAP. HE IS A MULTIMILLIONAIRE DO YA'LL WHAT THAT MEANS HE AINT NO WHERE NEAR BROKE. JUST CUZ HIM AND JAY SPLIT DONT MEAN JAY TOOK ALL DAME MONEY HELL HE PAID HIM AFTER THEY SPLIT THAT DUDE GGO STOP ALL THIS BULLISH CUZ ITS STARTING TO GET SICKENING.
MYSPACE.COM/POODIE_n_ILLA
OH AND WHAT PERSON CONTACTED YA'LL THAT CLOSE TO HIS FINANCES?? STOP IT WITH THE LIES MTO YA'LL ARE NOT AS BIG AS YOU THINK YOU ARE.
bet that ugly looking wife he got cleaned him out with her impulsive shopping to buy ugly clothes!
what is dame dash known for anyway? ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Okay, since you apparently don't know anything about Dame, why would you make such a statement?
Damon Dash is a mogal just like Jay. His wife's name is Rachel Roy, and she's classy, sophisticated, educated and she does not need to spend Dame's money. She's a successful fashioner that sells to some of the most high-end boutiques in the country and she was also featured on Oprah this year.
People can say what they want, but if someone CLEARY doesn't know what they are talking about, but make off-beat statements, that's where I draw the line. JMO
OK, now what happen to that whack azz reality show he was doing? Anyway, this is no news to me if these rich azzholes don't learn how to invest properly in they $$$$ this is the shiit they hve to look forward to....instead of wasting $$ on bullshiit like letting they chain hang low...do you see Donald Trump or Oprarh or Bill Gates with a million $ chains hanging low..Hell naw..well we should take notes on how the rich stay rich and how the poor stay poor...and b4 y'll sy something about Donald Trump filling banruptcy , that shiit was a ploy..that man is still rich and still building more and more property..so there!!!!!!
*THE ROC IS IN DA BUILDIN* (Obviously not for Dame lol) whats good yall?!
Damn Dame, times must be hella damn rough. I thought Miss Info was just playing when she reported that story that he didn't have enough money to pay for a meal at Ihop. Damn.
But come on people, let's be real. As much love and admiration I have in my heart for Shawn Carter, he's no different than Puffy. He fycked over Dame, he fycked over Foxy and left her for dead in the Pink Houses, he fycked half the Ruff Ryders and only kept his yes-men in the cut that being Bleek and Beans. S. Carter ain't no diffrent than Puffy.
Wow wow wow - another blk celebrity who does not know how 2 manage millions of $$$$...No sympathy from me. if you have millions of $$ & do not know/or want 2 pay taxes, you need 2 go 2 jail..where common folks, all making under the 100k a year, is paying taxes on time........get out of here..NO sympathy.
Think about it for a minute folks. Try to put yourself in Dame's position. Arrogant (I met him, he IS), but STILL, if all of this is true, the average person would be trying to hang himself by his own shoe-laces by now. All of this is probably the Lord's way of getting him to re-prioritize what's really important in his life, who knows!
He is still a very successful man, and this "obstacle" is just apart of what goes with the territory when you get to that status. Ask yourself if you were in his shoes, what would you do?
@ BklynRogue
Look at all the ppl you named....
Dame was just trying to ride of the Roc name forever.... Jay wanted to grow and you have to keep it moving in order to keep getting money.
Foxy just completely the [EXPLETIVE] off.... he did bring her to Def Jam though and she still don't wanna act right.
Ruff Ryders aren't really relevent anymore and Jay probably knew they weren't going to be around for very long LOL
I wouldn't want all them mofo's living off of me. He did what he could.
C
Lol Hell no Dame don't got that cake he was making in 2000. He probably couldn't afford Kam Kau either lol. But come on C, Jay effed over madd heads tho. Cuz if Jay still gave a damn about ppl he grew up with, then Foxy would still have a record deal, and you'd still hear about ppl like Drag-On, Ruff Endz, etc. (Wow remember them? lol)
@ Chyna Redd
But babes, they are all major artists and they actually have their fans and ish. Come on, anyone name the best female rappers ever, best believe Foxy and Kim gonna be the top two. And remember, Foxy only fell off cuz she was sprung on Jay-Z but he was treatin her as a jumpoff when he was jugglin Angie Martinez and Beyonce lol.
The Ruff Ryders are still one of my favorite rap groups of all time too, and a select few, and with all their talent they could've still been successes like alumni, DMX, The Lox, and so on. I wouldn't count Eve, cuz she a sellout lol.
@ Pinklici
But still, alright I get that this is a business. But one major factor of a business besides looking out for yourself is LOYALTY. Jay was madd cool with all these artists, always was on each other's mixtapes helping each other out, but once he got all that money, he DROPPED THEM ALL!
Atleast I could respect him for still keepin Bleak & Beans on his payroll, cuz he grew up with them, but I still think it's pretty fycked up how he just trashed the rest of em especially the Ill Na Na.
BklynRogue
This is what I mean The cats that he so called Fukked over, he helped out first with the exception of Sauce Money! Jaz-o is mad becuz Jay did not do his video, but Jay helped him out with that Jigga What Video. Is Jay suppose to be responsible for Jaz-o's dumb ass moves he made early ie The Hawian Sophie Video, Jay saw the dumb ass choices Jaz-O made and left the game for good but ppl kept pushin Jay, Jay redeemed himself. That Ruff Ryder shyt I aint clear on but I know why he is distancing himself from Dehaven and Calvin Klein and them OLD GOATS aka OG's LOL!
His wife is cute...a lot of the pics I have seen of them she look scared to death or thinking why she married the little bull frog in the first place. Whatever the reason, she doesn't look to be happy. The fat lil turd look like he is difficut to live with anyway. He reminds me of that purple tellie tubbie or a wind up barney doll. Some of her clothing are really cute, but her main focus is geared to the up scale socialites and the red carpet walkers. That is just my opinion.
I LOVE me a cutthroat business man LOL j/k
If Jay wasn't a big as he is none of these nuccas would be hollering his name. That Dehaven vid was lame and he's even lamer for making it.
And if anyone from the Ruff Ryders wants to revive their career they can get at Jay... I'm sure he'll put them on just like he did NAS LOL.
@ strongblackwoman, I can't see the link, ever since these cheap ass mofo's put a block on utube, I'll have to catch it when I get home.
@standard, I liked Blue Hill Avenue too. Did anyone see Narc with Ray Liotta and Busta? Good one too. State Property 2 sucked and Paper Soldiers was funny but boring. But Imma take it back, did you all see Strapped, lol with Bokeem Woodbine, Onyx and Chi Ali lol classic!
@ pinklici
I knoowwww you didn't just say f the south I'm coming for you....lol just playin. Being raised in the North and South I've come to appreciate both musically.
It's all rap/hip-hop...just different styles. NYC started it true and they need to start getting their artist back out there along w/ the south.
Pinklici, i'm with u. Im from the Bronx and Lord Tarik & Peter Gunz said it right, if it wasn't for the bronx this rap sh1t probably wouldn't b going on. I love the dirrty, but i'm tired of the music. At least NYC rappers have different styles, the south straight riding off that snap music, its funny to snap yo fingers in the club, but i'm alittle tired of if.
@SBW: This what I'm talkin about!
Jay gives a little and ppl always want more! Like Redd Foxx said, these kids are like cats, once you feed them, they'll be beggin you forever. Jay always doin them favors and showin respect but these ni&&As just cant settle for one favor in return, they want one million & one favors! These cats is greedy! Like he said on Angie show, He's not responsible. This dude and Klein are made becuz they not runnin around with Jay, Ty-Ty, OG Jaun and them on Yachts and stuff. Ya'll cats was locked up, who knows if the Feds are watchin, I know for damn sure the Hip-Hop Police is watchin! After that Supreme shyt, Jay aint fukkin wit none of these Old Goats (OG's)LOL! Can You Blame Him? I wouldn't either. Smart Move Jay! This aint no Stan shyt, this is real talk. You never know what these "OG's" when come home from the PEN, they probably go right back to the streets becuz thats all they know! I dont blame Jay for seperatin himself from his past life. Thats what it is, THE PAST!
Vanilla_One, Blue Hill is my favorite, I think Allen Payne was at his best as Tristan(love the name) all of them was HOT, even big dude.....LOL
Pinklici, Eve was HOT when she first came out and its like now she's jumping on the bangwagon with her new stuff. Swiss Beatz hooked her up with that beat, its Fire. She just ain't doing it for me lyricially on that song.
C, everybody wanna blame J cuz he on top and they not. U can't say he didn't try though.
@ Pinklici, OD means overdose, cuz it was funny how u said eff the south lol.
But you are dammit right, you and Standard. Hip Hop will forever sound the best coming from NYorkers cuz we sonned that shyt ever since 1977. I mean shout out to all my southerners, but yall get indignant sometimes like yall started rap just because yall have been dominating the scene for like 2 years now. BUT HIP HOP IS NYC!
SBW, Standard, Vanilla, & BklynRouge
Real Talk, eversince that Supreme/Irv Gotti Shyt, I understand why Jay aint fukkin with none of these nikkas from Lockdown, The dude on tape and Calvin Klien (The Brooklyn Don)! Jay aint stupid, He knows the Hip Hop Police is watchin and if he gets involve with them, the FEDS will be eyeing him too! Its just like 50 said, OG stands for Old Goats! Jimmy Henchmen, Supreme, Calvin Klien are all Old Goats. Jay-Z is in the Rap Game what Klein was on the street in the Crack Game!
yal gotta understand, these one hit wonders in the down south doesnt' represent real southern hip hop, what kills me is that folks think when they see that mess on 106 & Park it's all the south has to offer..... there is a major difference between club music, dance music, and real hip hop and that goes for every region....
Lol @ Yall
How dare yall play Kim & Foxy, when yall know deep down inside yall know yall love them. lol. I dont care if Foxy gets her Trini azz whipped every week at the Louis H. Pinkston houses or if Kim look like the Joker, they are still the two best female rappers ALIVE. Fyck these new broads sans Remy Ma. lol
I'm sorry too yall, but Eve broke my heart after that Eve-o-lution LP. Like that whole thing was whack and she became commercialized, but I still love her First Lady of The Ruff Ryders LP.
@ C & Standard
Lol, I'm happy as hell that HOV is a success, cuz my dude paid his dues, but come on, it's just fycked up that he fycked ppl over to get to the top. Even his son Young Bastard, who has to go on HOT 97 and air him out everyweek on Jonesy lol.
I WISH PEOPLE WOULD PUT THEIR MONEY IN REALESTATE AND IRA'S INSTEAD OF GOLD CHAINS AND DIAMONDS THAT PEOPLE HAD TO DIE FOR. AINT NOTHING WRONG WITH DIAMONDS BUT YOU CANT EAT THEM ARE LIVING IN ONE. AND ALL THAT BUYING EXPENSIVE AZZ CHAMPAGNE AND LIQUOR. HELL GO THE CORNER STORE AND GET A BUD. A FOOL AND THEIR MONEY ARE ALWAYS PARTED
@ pinklici
I heard that, there's but so much of that southern music I can take too. I damn myself everytime I snap to a T-Pain record cuz he's just taking a knife to Hip Hop's heart....that crusty haired bastard. lol
LOL @ all my BX heads, I see yall on that 6 train to Castle Hill! lol
LMAO @ C....son speakin of 50, you should read about what he told MTV. He told them to suck him off, he's livid. But still, them OLD GOATS are the G.O.A.T.
SBW I love my country heads, but come on, there's but so much we can take when all yall do is scream in a mic and rap about grills, and getting tatoos, and talkin about the trap, and constantly sayin 'shawty' a billion times...ugh.
Lis, i love how u post what others say then underneath u respond, no body can say "i didn't say that" u gotta covered....LOL
Rainbowbright...My mad u right Fat Joe, LL, Nas, I cant bring myself to say it but Diddy, 50, i gotta wash my mouth out with soap now....LOL What about old school, KRS One Boogie Down Productions will always get paid, we take the whackest songs and make them better....Remember that....LOL
@pinklici lmao yeah Bokeem is a ugly mofo and he looks scary, but I bet his sex is wild crazy and hella good! lol
@standard yesss, Allen Payne did his thing in that movie. I wish they would of gave more time when they were younger in the movie, I like when they were just starting out as kids.
@c I agree with you as far as Jay not fuk'n with them, but he should of known that someone from the past was gonna come @ him. Especially if they aint on Jay's payroll. You see how he keeps Bleek under him, cause they grew up together and plus Bleek aint bitch'n 'bout no dough cause even though he hustled and was on the move with Jay, he didn't build and grind as hard as Jay and Dame did to get where he is today. So Bleek really shouldn't expect to be where Jay is, but Jay is hitting Bleek off with the dough, don't think Bleek is broke cause Jay aint gone leave him hanging like that.
standard
I aint Preachin Nothin but the truth LOL! But All I'm sayin is after that Murder Inc/Sumpreme McGriff Trial. I see why Jay aint fukkin with Nobody
BklynRouge: I mean them Old Goats from the Crack Game Like Dehaven and Klien and Supreme and them not them Old school MC's in the Rap Game LOL!
SBW: I fukk with Wayne, TIP, Jeezy, Luda, and them and My dude 3 STACKS aka Andre 3000 LOL! But that other side of Southern Rap make me sick LOL! They play that shyt all day everyday! DAMN! LOL!
Okay SBW, Blackdaddy. I do buy certain southern records, but a lot of them are just ridiculous. I'm feeling people like Luda, Slim Thug, Tpain. And of course, if i ever see TI in the street I swear imma lay down right there and offer him some. I love that short, light skinned mofukka. But they are the exceptions. I stay reppin NYC.
vanilla_one
I feel you but you know Bleek is to Jay like yayo is to 50 LOL! Look at it like this, was bleek a Notorious Drug Lord like Klien and DeHeaven! NO! Neither was Jay, Like Klien Said Jay was just a soldier, a drugdealer! Klien was a Kingpin! Now Jay is the Don in the Rap world and Klien is Akon's Road Manager.
Lol @ Blackdaddy
Hey, aint nothin wrong wit a lil azz shaking from a female, but dude I'm sorry it just gets stupid when they dominate the billboard with dumb music lol.
I know u enjoy our NYC chicks, ain't nothin like em! lol
Dem country chicks u got down there got them ill booties tho too, u lucky mofo lol.
Blackdaddy, what girl don't like to shake their booty, maybe the ones with no booty but y'all make it so easy for us to just drop it and things go our way, for me Ms New Booty has gotten me out of alot and has gotten me alot.....LOL
ChynaRedd, i think everything we do gets old after a while, the club scene is definately old to me, i'd rather get drunk and freak my boyfriend up, at least i know i'm getting some afterwards, leaving the club with wet undies is not cool....LOL
lmao at standard and pinklici!
BKlynRogue u gotta remember the children is what have that mess on their... NOW I AM GUILTY CUZ I WILL WIPE ME DOWN ALL DAY IN THE CLUB LMAO!!! I LOVE THAT SONG!!! LOL AND I also liked the young joc its going down dance, guilty of that one to, as for everything else, they can have that shyt cuz I HATE THAT SOULJA BOY DANCE ITS SO DAMN STUPID AND THAT BOY SOUND A HOT ASS MESS!!!
LMAO AT CHYNA REDD FOR APOLOGIZING ON BEHALF OF THE SOUTH
Well as an orginail atlien i too am a lil tired of the snap music. I don't hate on any black person doing their thang and getting to the money but alot of it does sound the same. On the other hand when you are at the club and that shi-come on and everbody is doing it it is fun! I am an old school southern hip hop. We talking bout Outkast, Goodie Mob, Eightbaii & MJG, Scarface, UGK, i was raised off of that [EXPLETIVE]! That is not to say i didn't listen to biggie his ass use to go off too. The reason why this snap music is so popular is because that is what our youth can mostly relate too. Hate to say it but everybody poppin pills and [EXPLETIVE] and all that makes you want to do is dance and be out in the clubs but i don't want people to think that that is all the south has to offer we should have been getting play when southerplaylistic came out but we didn't. This is for all my real atl people who remember's kilo ali?
SBW, yeah i'm guilty of wipe me down, but i'm mad there's one verse where he's straight spelling his name, at first i hated that part cuz i didn't know what he was spelling, now that's my favorite part.....LOL That souldja boy ish is 2 damn much and for real all that damn jummping hurt these double d's....LOL i swear i'm about to come out with a dance that we can do.
That is Pride for you but for real that ain't nothing but KARMA kicking Dame in the ass, but that is Jay-Z man so yeah it's only right but to do that favor for that man look at how Dame got him regardless of arrogance or not that is real, can do nothing but respect their friendship would love to have a man like tat in my corner all day you diggg!
I got love for the south but From Laffy Taffy on down is gettin the fukk on my nerves, shyt and Ppl Thought Crunk Music was bad. Shyt give Bring Back the Lil Jon Crunk Music again. Bring Back the Move Bitch Get Out The Way, From The Windows To The Wall. The Never Scared, Back That ass Up LOL! Bling Bling, Southern Hospitality. Come on Ya'll bring back that good Crunk Music Not This Bubble Gun BS! LOL!
Jay is successful because he had choices and leaving behind certain people in order to do so. It's about growth and most dudes from the hood don't want to or afraid grow beyond the street mentality. A lot of cats were there for him in the beginning, but they did not give him the opportunities he has now. Life experiecne gave him what he has. He can't continue to let punks leeched off him like M.C. Hammer did. All you grown ass men need to stop letting another man feed you. Real bonafide hustlers get out and hustle like the next man. Dehaven has a youtube video claiming to expose Jay, his mother, Dame Dash Ta-Ta and others. He appears to be a broke angry Black Man, who is making a desperate attempt to seek out black mail money. Dehaven you are not the Surge Knight of the east coast...Go and apply for your AARP card.

Blackdaddy or at least a fly on the wall.....LOL

RBB, i love Wayne, ur right he's not the best looking thing, but there's definately something about him, on top of the fact the his flow is sick.
JOKE OF THE DAY COURTESY OF MISNELLYPOO FROM MYSPACE... ************************************************* A man left for work one Friday afternoon. But it was payday, so instead of going home, he stayed out the entire weekend partying with the boys and spending his entire pay check.
When he finally appeared at home on Sunday night, he was confronted by his angry wife and was barraged for nearly two hours with a tirade befitting his actions. Finally his wife stopped the nagging and said to him, "How would you like it if you didn't see me for two or three days?" He replied, "That would be fine with me."
Monday went by and he didn't see his wife. Tuesday and Wednesday came and went with the same results. But on Thursday, the swelling went down just enough where he could see her a little out of the corner of his left eye.
@ C
You know and I know, that Angie and Jay-Z get it in here and there lol. Anytime anything is Jay-Z related, Angie got it all over Hot 97, and you kno Flex aint the only dickridah lmao! Angie and Hova go way back!!
Lol booo!!! Wendy was only on Game's manstick that one time, if anything she stay on Puffy! lol
LMBAO @ KIAFE...she always used to say that.LOL i wonder y she ain't open up a shop on 54 & crenshaw.
SBW, i hate when they do that, even them "rock yo hips" girls when they rap. Its really annoying. I don't know who them girls b all up in an ugly rappers' face, like the T-Pain girl in bartender video, there would definately have to b a distance requirement for me.
ChynaRedd, how about "i'm scraight"...LOL
@SBW thanks for the joke...I know its not joke day... but I thought you would like this one.
A man and his wife were working in their garden one day and the man looks over at his wife and says, " your butt is really big, I mean really big. I bet your butt is bigger than the barbeque grill" With that he proceeded to get the measuring tape amd measure the grill and then went over to where his wife was working and measure his wife bottom. Yes I was right your butt is two inches wider than the barbeque grill!!!The woman chose to ignore her husband. Later that night in bed, the husband is feeling frisky. He made some advances toward his wife who completely brushes him off. "What's wrong?, he asks. She answers, "Do you really think I'm going to fire up this big-ass grill for one little weenie."
Lol @ C
I forgot Nokio was her babyfather lol. Please, but Angie just gets a lil pep in her step when she do somethin Jay related on Hot 97 lol. Hell yeah, Jonesy n Envy stay reppin 50, I can't take it at times tho lol. U kno Michael Shawn got it in for Jay, he keep talkin to Young Bastard n shyt lmao.
This is some straight bull!! Anyone who believes this is just a dumb as the person who posted it! Anyone who has made over 100 million dollars doesn't just go broke all of a sudden! Yea Jay left but so what! Yall acting like Jay god or something, the dude is seriously over rated! Dame is still making money through dip set and alot of other investments he's made! Just because a couple of investments go sour, doesn't mean that the dude is bankurpt! Y'all so much on Jay's sack that yall will beleive anything! Sad!
@ Treesha when did master p go bankurpt????
u know what? damon dash been having the most phucked up luck since Aaliyah died!! itz like that shyt cursed him or something!! and that sham of a marriage is no help!! daaayyuuummm!! SPOOKY!!! but 4 real tho, these richie-rich types do not like to pay taxes!! WTF?!?! we pull that crap and they'll put our average asses under the jail!! LOL!!!
See things aren't always what they seem. Even if this story is not true, same rule still applies.
You think a lot these entertainers are raking in dough and most of them are not. BUT they have to portray an image to put ppl down to big themselves up.
I don't wish any bad on anybody either, but Damon Dash is as arrogant as them come, ESPECIALLY about money. If this is true, this could be Karma at work.
Well he must also be looking for money for a divorce. His highly successful designer wife Rachelroy.com, has one of the most successful design houses in New York. Hey, her clothes may be ugly, but they sure do sell. She's probably tired of him embarrassing her in public anyway and found a man who would at least represent her. Damon is a street crawler and perhaps she feels the need to leave the gutter. Hope she's long gone.
Kimoraleesimmons, I hope this is you. What a joke. Truly Day deserves whatever he gets. As far a his wife's RachelRoy.Com designs, honey, they are no way near hideous. She may or may not be a household name in the US, but in Europe, she's got it down. I worked in Paris for the last five years, completing my MBA, and they can't get enough of her line. She also sells her line in London and Rome, as well as Neiman Marcus in L.A. and Bergdorf Goodman in NYC. As for your like or dislike for high end fashion, don't make me laugh. Your (working the track)trash only sells in Coat Factory, Walmart, Forever 21,Dress Barn,Kohls, T.J.Max,Target, and the like. Another thing, Rachel is fine, she has class and people actually want to see her coming. Her designs have been featured in Vogue, have yours? You on the other hand are a loud, flashy, money grubbin, fake, thick rolls in your neck, piece of trash.(Yes, I saw your drunk driving picture on The Smoking Gun.Com Website), it speaks for itself. When I found out that you were going to represent black Supermodels in Essence Magazine, again, another serious joke. Neither you or Tyra are supermodels, a Supermodel is a model that has graced the cover of Vogue. Did either of you do that? I forget. If not give it up. There are only two of the four presented that were on the cover Alek and Iman. No one even knew who you were until you married, Mr. Softy. So give it up, throw some more glitter on something, and stop trying to play Ms. Ghetto Fabulous Real. Everyone knows its the hook you use to try and identify with a sister to get them to buy your hooker wear. You'll never catch up with Rachel in any way shape of form.
