Jay-Z took what were assumed to be veiled shots at former Roc-A-Fella Records partner Dame Dash on his 2006 single “Lost Ones.” Today, (July 9), the Brooklyn rapper says during an interview with New York radio station Hot 97 that their work together was historical and that he still has love for his former partner.
“What we built, you can’t take that away,” Jay-Z says during the interview. “No matter what, no time or space. No matter how many years I ain’t seen him, the love is still there because what we’ve done will forever be stamped in history. We created something that’s going to go down forever. I can only have love for Damon.”
Jay-Z also spoke on a potential reunion with Dash without being provoked. “I just don’t know where we are in our life,” Jigga says. “Are we the same two young men at that time? Will we gel in that way? We were two different people. I haven’t seen him in a while. I can’t remember when was the last time.”
Dame Dash recently posted a Vine of him listening to Jay-Z’s Magna Carta Holy Grail, an experience he called “bittersweet.” Dame Dash was recently hit with a $2.8 million tax lien and has had financial problems for several years.
Jay-Z says that he doesn’t regret their falling out and that he has confidence in Dame Dash. “In life, I can’t control everything, all the things in life,” Jay-Z says during the Hot 97 interview. “I have ultimate confidence in him that he’ll find his way ’cause he’s an amazing and really smart guy…He’s a hustler and he’s highly intelligent, so I always root for him and always believe that he’ll find his way out of it.”

Man, Jay needs to help Dame out.
exactly
By doing what, giving him some pocket money?
You guys do realize Dame probably had over 50 million at one point. He made close to 20 million just on Rocafella clothing. How is Jay going to help him anymore if Dame blew all his cash.
Dame needs this money! A Jay-Z reunion could change his life!
Bring the ROC Fam back and surely they would make some noise in the game. Do it jay…

Horrible idea.
The Roc had one of the hardest crews in the game. Checkout thegrandreport, they have some cool entertainment news and videos on there too
You told me that before… and your wrong again.
Same formula everytime. Say one relevant thing about the article, then “Check out my shitty website”

Jay-Z used everyone he came in contact with to get where he is. Dame Dash, Big Daddy Kane…….to name two specifically…..He’s a scumbag
Sauce Money
Jaz O
Foxy Brown
Dame Dash
Biggs
DJ Premier
Memphis Bleek
Kanye West
Young Gunz (Chris & Neef)
Beanie Sigel
Nas’s mother’s death..
Yea..to name a few..

He used Young Gunz (Chris & Neef)??
just because we was affiliated with people in the past doesnt mean he used them. Jay Z is a business man who ran a record label with Damon Dash. Some of these people who you named are merely artist on that label. Are you friends with ALL your co workers? If one of your co workers quit or lost their job, would you support them? then how is it any different for Jay? those people mentioned are business associates, except for Memphis Bleek who still rolls with Jay
Bleek could be one hit away his whole career, but as long as I’m alive he’s a millionaire
you’re fucking simple. Artist that were featured in songs with him or produced songs for him he ‘used’? Pretty sure all those people got paid for a fucking service, you dumb fuck.
Really, and Jay-Z even says it in a slick way, why would they re-unite? He might have love for him, respect him…but all he was basically was a hype man, he negotiated contracts etc… Jay either does all that himself now, or has others that do it for him…. great era, great label..but just like Death Row it’s over and ain’t ever coming back.

I know this has nothing to do with this post but does anybody know when Losos Way 2 is coming out? I thought it was coming out around this time and I havent heard anything about it.
This is the Realest Sh*t.
Proud Of Jay for admitting this.
I haven’t seen him in awhile translates to: I go out of my way to avoid this broke fucker.
How did theyre beef even start ?
Google is your friend 😉
I remember when Dame said Hov stole Kanye from him lmao
Kanye chose to go with Jay Z since Jay Z had a real record label.
Besides, i do think kanye wanted to be under Dash making 100 songs with Cam’Ron and Beanie Sigel
they would reunite as to being in the same space, talking and reminiscing, throw some new ideas at the wall. you people really have no life I see…
Dame Dash is a broke ass has bean… and Lil Wayne killed Jay-Z’s muzik career wit Tha Carter IV… Lil Wayne’s songs shit on everything Jay-Z did since 1996. swag
for your sake i hope you dont use the word swag with your name attached to it..clown
Someone Whos A Gay
ill quote my boy from a few days ago
‘ i dont always chill with people with swag, but when i do im usually ordering a double cheeseburger with large fries and a soda” LOL losers

Jay said in his most recent interview that hes bought the Rocafella label back from Universal. I think Dame had a point when he said the label should still stand and I think there is a possibility of them both Jay and Dame working together to get the label back on the map. They dont have to run it together like before but they should at least get it back on the map.

WHY SHOULD JAY-Z GIVE HIM ANY EXTRA MONEY? DAME DASH MADE MILLIONS, THE FACT HE BLEW IT ALL IS NOT JIGGA’S FAULT, DAME SHOULD BE THANKFUL TO HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO WORK WITH HIM, JAY-Z WAS AND IS THE MAIN ACT OF ROC-A-FELLA FAMILY. AND WHO GIVES A FUCK ABOUT JAZ-O IN 2013 ANYWAY? JIGGA HAS ANOTHER ALBUM COMING OUT AND NO FINANCIAL PROBLEMS. THIS IS BECAUSE HE WORKS HARD AND MOST IMPORTANTLY – KNOW HOW TO HANDLE AND SAVE HIS MONEY.
co sign. Jay Z earned his money and is not responsible for feeding another man’s family. Dash could’ve managed his money better and wouldnt be in his current situation.
If i remember right, Dash made a bunch of bad investments, not jay z’s fault
Jay z never seems fazed by out the ass questions.people tend to open up more when they have life changing experience s cause there not the same person they were and that’s the whole point evolving so him and dame wouldn’t even look right cause they seem to be going in two different directions.cant hang on to that shit man it had its time.

I can’t remember Dame being such a bad guy…I remember him giving all that advice
And jay z and his success is most definitely the House that Dame built period.
For saying this ya shall ever remain nameless. ROC!
I heard motherfuckers saying they made Hov
Made Hov say, “Ok so, make another Hov”
Niggas wasn’t playing they day role
So we parted ways like Ben and J-Lo
It’s hard to give a nicca 2.5mill but I will try… But he need to come up with some idea as a smart Hommie.
Hov!
you hit that on the nose.. lol
DASH FUCKED UP THE ROC
false! if it wasn’t for dash jay wouldn’t be where he’s at now and kanye would probably be underground and unnoticed (which would prolly be a good thing lol)
No Dame = no Kanye
its like a Murder Inc reunion
