Bobby Dash Exposes The True Reason for Rocafella's Break-Up!!

An interview with Bobby Dash (Dame Dash's brother) where he gives the inside scoop on what caused the Rocafella break-up on the Rugah TV with Benny Negro!

[@tupacthuglife1693]

Jay got niggas before they got him.. ... Money can and will put you in a tough position. At some point every man will be faced with a choice and jay made a choice to stand alone.

[@nikkigiovanni7593]

yeah I guess loyalty don't mean shit now days huh good point though

[@workwork91]

No. ... jay just decided to sell his soul to the devil and take it up the arse by all those on a higher level. don't think his life is all roses because he is doing shit he never signed up for. And as we know.... Once you walk through the door you can't come back.

@repGuts Jay offered him everything if he would give him the rights to Reasonable Doubt. He said no that was stupid! They all walk away with millions. Jay flipped his to and may become a billionaire. Dame went bankrupt. There are plenty of people who can put the same grind in the Dame put in. There aren't plenty of people who pen hit record after record for over a decade.

It was actually supposed to be Dame, Irv Gotti, J-Prince, and Suge Knight who planned to put money up together to form a distribution company to distribute black music.

[@AllProHipHop]

His point is that Jay had financial goals that would be easier to reach if he wasn't splitting all the proceeds with partners. Obviously, if you're only making half as much money, your wealth will grow at half the speed. If you're getting 1/3 the money, your wealth will grow at 1/3 the speed. Etc.

I was on the Street team around that time I agree with Bobby I feel if Jay-z looked at the bigger picture the roc would be a major label

[@bokay3900]

I don't agree with his analysis. Jay Z owns perhaps .67% of the Nets. Tell me he's not sharing ownership with others. How do you think Puffy was able to start up Sean John and Ciraq? He had to find investors which in turn means he had to share profits and ownership. I heard that Damon Dash made a lot of frivolous business moves. In other words, he fell off. I'm not on Jay Z's dick but let's talk about facts instead of feelings.

[@ndabstract1]

Recheck your figures....He does not own 67% or .67. He actually only owns 1/8th percent of the team. Not even a whole 1 percent, which equates to 0.125. He was used by the Russian as the face of the Nets so that the Russian would be able to acquire, or rather bamboozle, the people of Brooklyn out of their property in order to build the stadium. So, basically JayZ was big pimped by the Russian to sell out his people and his community to the Russian. But the people will love him anyway...

[@bokay3900]

0.67% which is less than 1%

[@bokay3900]

We're told Kidd will take over Jay's .067 percent (1/15th of a percent) stake in the team for about $500,000. […] A source told us, "Other owners want to give Jason a part ownership of the team, and urged Jay to sell his shares to him."

[@bokay3900]

My point is that Jay Z is still not getting all the dough.

[@bokay3900]

Zoe Spencer And, I totally agree with your point. Jay Z is nothing more than a mascot for the Brooklyn Nets.

How many siblings do Damon Dash have total? besides Bobby

[@dtraversodt]

Another brother named Jeremi

[@DEmmanuelVLOG]

Jay and Dame started Rocafella together... it's even in one of the Documentaries back in the "Streets is Watching" days. Dame's bro is actually sounding more objective about it. Others, mostly Dip set supporters claim Jay Z was shunning Dame because of bringing in Cam, but watching Jay-Z's business moves (40/40 club, the Vodka) he was positioning to split. Dame tried to lock Jay in, so through Def Jam Jay countered. And won. Seems arrogance brought Dame down. Just my take from the info out there

[@ndabstract1]

We are here....LOL...Just correcting the figures, because. .67 would translate to 67%....But, I thought that's what you meant. We definitely agree.

I didn't take it like that. I took it like he heard of him...knows of him but keep in mind he's a grown man about business. To me he doesn't come off like someone that "sweats" cats so a name may not be on the tip of his tongue like that.

[@eversezramclaurin3103]

Untrue.... I will say that them bols from Philly were more authentic than them Harlem boys. BK niggas related to Philly more & it was apparent.

[@2twelvez]

Eversezra McLaurin untrue... it was a Brooklyn nigga ( Jay Z) who basically tore it down for his own gain & greed. Them Harlem niggaz played their position, Philly niggaz played their position. Jay had no loyalty or regard towards his own people. Rocafella would’ve been bigger than it was had Jay kept it in tact

[@deebee3424]

Jay Z didn't want anyone to shine. I'm not a big fan of 50cent but at least he let Gunit shine. He helped Game with various hits, Jay Z would steal records from people

[@DEmmanuelVLOG]

Everybody you named is alone at the Top of their company getting the Top money... LOL. You just proved HIS point. I know what you tryin' to say, but if your not splitting paper from your business three ways, your ascension is much quicker. Plus, Dame was trying to be just as big a star as Jay. Most companies in that situation has a figure head, and "Silent" partners. Sorta like Biggs... It was great seeing them work together, but Dame did start feelin' himself over his role.
