Dame Dash has something to say after finding himself in the spotlight due to being mentioned by Shannon Sharpe in a candid conversation with music executive Steve Stoute. Sharpe, the host of "Club Shay Shay" podcast, had a question for Dash regarding his take on the breakdown of Jay-Z's friendship and working relationship with him. According to Stoute, Dash's "antics" and his tendency to get "angry" with Roc A Fella staff were the reasons behind him losing his close ties with "the most important artist of his generation."
Stoute further explained that as people mature, their friendships also evolve. He compared it to having friends at a young age and slowly drifting apart as you grow up and they continue to act the same way. Stoute believed that Dash was one of those people who refused to change. He spoke about how Dash's way of speaking and treating people, as well as his anger towards team members meeting with other executives without his knowledge, caused disruptions in the business.
The UnitedMasters CEO also shared that Dash would often take out his frustrations on his staff when things didn't go according to plan. Stoute then went on to criticize Dash's business practices, saying that they were not as tight as they should have been, and Dash would often leave to "build businesses" while causing chaos upon his return.
Stoute also mentioned how Jay-Z outgrew Dash's attitude and work style as he aimed for bigger things in his career. He believed that Jay saw Dash's limitations and wanted more for himself, as did everyone else around them.
While Stoute acknowledged Dash's intelligence and talent, he also pointed out that his ego was out of control, making it impossible to work with him. These comments did not sit well with Dash, who responded on Instagram by reposting the clip and calling out Stoute for "always speaking on other men's business." He also took a dig at Stoute for their past altercation, adding that he has since evolved.
In recent news, Dash was ordered to sell his remaining stake in Roc A Fella to cover a significant debt. However, Jay-Z and his business partner Kareem "Biggs" Burke opposed this ruling, stating that a board of directors would need to approve the sale. The judge then responded by declaring Dash's shares as personal property.
