Dame Dash has actually quickly countered at Steve Stoute after the songs supervisor slammed him for just how Roc-A-Fella Records broke down.
Speaking To Shannon Sharpe on the previous NFL celebrity’s Club Shay Shay podcast on Wednesday (March 6), Stoute claimed Dash “blew it” when it involved managing JAY-Z and the once-successful tag both established along with Kareem “Biggs” Burke.
Stoute, that is best recognized for being Nas‘ former manager, said he couldn’ t think that Dash and Roc-A-Fella imploded when they had “the most important artist of his generation,” definition JAY-Z.
“The people around him wanted to meet with other people. People were becoming less beholden to him but he was unaware of it,” he claimed. “And then while he was building businesses, he would go off all around the world with cameras and girls and all kinds of crazy shit, and then come back flipping on everybody as if [they were wrong].”
He included: “Jay grew up, Jay wanted more. I think Jay saw Dame’s ceiling and I think that’s really what it was. He wanted more. Everybody wanted more. Dame just had a very particular way of approaching things.
“He’s far from stupid — very, very smart, very talented. Ego through the roof. So there was no working with him. No one wanted to work with him. Jimmy Iovine had this line: when the shit gets bigger than the cat, you gotta get rid of the cat.”
Dash quickly countered at Stoute’s discuss Instagram, composing: “This is the reason I had to smack the shit out of @stevestoute a couple years ago…because he’s always speaking on other men’s business good thing I’ve evolved.”
Dame Dash formerly declared to have actually assaulted Steve Stoute over a financial debt, informing The Fight Jack Program in 2014: “I had been playing basketball in the Hamptons and had broke my foot … I was like, ‘By the way, you owe me $18,000.’
“He was like, ‘I’m not paying you.’ So I limped over and said, ‘Yo, I think you need to get out of my office’ — and I’m not condoning this, I’m not proud of it — but I smacked the shit out of him.”
Dash likewise went off on Stoute in a 2014 meeting with Hip Jump Inspiration, classifying the experienced exec a society marauder.
He claimed: “You know how many black people I tried to put together to make movies? There always be that one group — or because of Steve Stoute or somebody that’s a ‘culture robber’ or doesn’t care about his culture — [that] would break that up.
“A guy like Steve Stoute would always take the people that are protecting the creative [and] eliminate them so he could rob the creative. Just so he could get his money. Even if he kills that black man or that person’s brand.”
The Harlem-bred magnate later on released a backhanded apology to Stoute along with a variety of various other numbers in Hip Jump.
“So JAY-Z, if I’ve offended you, I apologize. Lyor Cohen, if I offended you, I apologize. Steve Stoute, if I offended you, I apologize,” he claimed in a video clip uploaded to Instagram.
“Just ’cause you don’t have the same morals and principles, it’s cool. I’m not angry no more. I did what I had to do. I was a little aggravated about Aaliyah, so y’all just caught the brunt end of it. It was therapy.”
Stoute has yet to reply to Dame’s most recent comments.
