Ma$e Recalls Cam'ron Pulling Baseball Bat On Dame Dash: '[He] Was Gonna Beat Me Up'

Ma$e has said Cam’ron once defended him by pulling a baseball bat on Damon Dash.

In an interview with Stephen A Smith, the Harlem rapper said: “Back in the day, a guy named Dame Dash said he was gonna beat me up, but Cam grabbed the baseball bat and said, ‘Dame, you can’t do that.'”

Cam’ron then interjects and added: “That was a hard decision because we all was cool, but the thing about Dame is he’s one step lower than a professional boxer. He fought Golden Gloves. Like, that’s not a fair fight. Dame Dash, to be totally fair, that’s my big bro.”

Dame posted the clip on Instagram, with Cam commenting on the post: “The biggest Homie!!!”

Ma$e has told part of this story before but without mentioning that Cam’ron intervened. During an appearance on MTV’s Rap Fix Live in 2012, he revealed that the near-fight came about due to Ma$e’s beef with JAY-Z.

“It was a girl, she liked me. We did whatever we did. And it was somebody’s girlfriend that was in [JAY-Z’s] crew,” he explained. “So then, me and Dame get into it.

“Dame wanna box with me, I tell him, ‘Let’s box.’ We didn’t end up boxing, everybody broke it up on 125th. I guess Jay inherited it because me and him never really had a problem. He said something, I said something back and that was about it.”

Dash used to manage both Ma$e and Cam’ron, and recently said he was happy the two had ended their feud and begun a talk show together.

“You know how happy that makes me? You know I used to manage them?” he said when asked about the pair’s repaired relationship and success with It Is What It Is. “To see this and them realize their potential, I always wanted them in front of cameras.

“Regardless of [bagging a bag], I’m just saying that they happy and that they finally gained the credit they deserve and it had to happen — pause — coming together and just being friends.”

He added: “And that’s all we’ve ever been. But Cam’ron, and to see them get the credit and do life after Hip Hop, that’s what I love to see.”

Cam’ron has been mending a lot of fences in recent years, including squashing his beef with JAY-Z, with whom he publicly reconciled during a concert at NYC’s Webster Hall in 2019.
