Dame Dash has said he’s ready to have a sit-down with JAY-Z to discuss their falling out — but not before his conditions are met.
Dash recently sat down with Vibe Editor-in-Chief Datwon Thomas on The CEO Show. During the nearly hour-long conversation, Dash talked about his former Roc-a-fella partner [the record label, formed by Dash, JAY, and Kareem “Biggs” Burke, was dissolved acrimoniously in the mid-aughts]. He said that he’d be willing to “have a conversation” with JAY-Z to talk about their differences, but only if certain things happen.
Dash said he’ll speak with JAY if the rap superstar agrees to “talk about the people that didn’t make the money, and try to help.”
Those people, while not named explicitly, seem–given the context of the conversation–to be former Roc-a-fella artists.
Dash also claimed that JAY has distasteful people around him.
“There’s things — and I don’t want to get into it — that morally I can’t be a part of,” Dash explained. “But if [JAY] could just shed all the things that I don’t like morally, and all the people who have done things and are doing things that morally I can’t fuck with, [then] we could fuck with just family.”
Dash has used this language about morals to take digs at JAY for years now. In 2019 he posted a backhanded apology to JAY on Instagram, saying, “Just because you don’t have the same morals or principles, it’s cool. I’m not angry no more.”
Elsewhere in the interview, Dame recalls the last time he saw Hov in person. It was, he recalls, at a concert in Los Angeles.
“My daughter Ava wanted to go to his concert,” Dash remembered. “So I had somebody call him and he got me tickets.
“He treated me like a gentleman, and we talked,” Dash continued. “I got it on tape.”

Dame doesn’t realize that ship sailed a long long time ago. Now “he’ll meet with Jay, but only under his own conditions” lmao Dame and talked bad about Jay like 100x over the years, Jay wants nothing to do with him
💯💯 🤣 Exactly! If delusional was a person it would without doubt be Lame Dash. Jay is married to Beyonce and he’s worth like almost 2 billion dollars. Anyone who thinks he gives a scintilla of a fck about meeting up with Lame Dash “under his conditions” or under no conditions at all to mend a friendship from like 20 years ago I got a few bridges I’d love to sell to you.
That’s what I love to see. They’re living by my motto – Bro’s before hoes . Love to see that
Jay doesn’t want anything to do with Dame, especially “under his conditions..” Can you imagine Jay even entertaining this idea? Get real Dame, stay in your lane.
Jay Z fans are the most disgusting fans on earth. All they talk about is how above and better he is than everyone. A cult brainwashed from average bars. Go ahead and @ me. Im too big to respond 😉
To read some of the comments on this s*** is crazy. All of you all sound like a bunch of haters
There are group of cult like people who tried to overthrow our government in their name of their cult hero which lead to the death and incarceration of many of those same fans. But somehow you think it’s JayZ fans that are the most disgusting on earth…. Seems a bit facetious.
Once Hov split, Dame no longer served a purpose in hip-hop. To this day, Dame is always talking about Hov and the past, but Hov hardly talks about either one. It’s sad that he can never move on.
It reminds me of the words I live by “The best revenge is to succeed without your haters.”
Let’s me get this straight, he wants a meeting under certain conditions. I too would like a meeting with Hova so he can guide me to become successful too but he hasn’t returned my calls just like Dame’s. Carry on!!!
That’s his only ‘contribution’ to the industry, he hugged jay z nuts until jay z robbed him and moved on. This fool stuck like stiff stuck and he wants closure and jay z knows this so he’ll steal that from him too😂
PAUSE. PAUSE. REAL TALK. PAUSE
PAUSE. PAUSE. REAL TALK. PAUSE
Pretty sure when you’re the one who gets cut off, you can’t make demands on when and how the cut off period ends.
You all are HATERSS ! Dame has a Rap Pioneer. He’s help countlesss Rap Artist make deals, make movies, make albums, given advances too, budget loans!!!!!! Young bucks. Dame Dash had. DANCE!!!! WE WAS ALLL DOING DAME DASH ROCK IN THE CLUB. Dame is a true Business Man. Jay learned from the best. Which is Dame
Well why is the best businessman man begging to reconnect with his student.. Doesn’t make sense to me.
It reminds me of that other rapper who had a fallout with Jay Z. After that he just wanted a conversation with Jay. Lol
