Dame released Muscle Car Chronicles without Curren$y permission and very little promotion. I remember because I followed every Curren$y release up to that point. Curren$y has only talked about this a couple times out of respect for Dame. A lot of Blurocs artists, including his nephew Da$h, were open about how Dame mishandled things. Dame is his own best friend and worst enemy.
Yea this is very true they were doing little blog videos on Creative Control …and that’s when he started to get greasy when all those artist started stopping thru and recording he saw it as opportunity to start another rocafella and do it his way but it all backfired
The way Dame talks he can be very convincing and I see a lot of people instantly believing him without doing any primary research. Like how Dame says he left Rocafella because he was done with music, despite him trying to start a new record label not long after. Dame will control the narrative of a convo to make himself look better in all situations. He acts like everyone turned on him, but I remember Dame acting all Nino Brown in cooperate offices... it don't fly like that on that level, Jay knew that, there are bigger fish in play
The Stalley thing is very true. I believe the whole underground hip hop scene was confused when Stalley signed with MMG because he was hot with his mixtapes. Spitta did sign with Warner in 2011 because Dame was moving funny in 2010. Pilot Talk 1 is when the lawsuit happened for copyright infringement…and don’t forget who won that case
In March 2012, news surfaced of legal action being taken against Damon Dash by Currensy. In the lawsuit, the rapper claimed that he never legally signed to Dash's DD172 label, and the record executive released the pair of albums (Pilot Talk I and Pilot Talk II) as well as Muscle Car Chronicles without authorization. Currensy demanded that Dash immediately stop releasing his music for profit, and pay $1.5 million in damages.[38] On October 6, 2015, Currensy was awarded $3 million in settlement stemming from the 2012 lawsuit against Dash for releasing material of his music without his consent
Yeah idk what to say, but they had to what's best for themselves. Eventually everyone wants to take it to the next level. But those Blu Roc days were special, I remember watching those back during the blog era.
I think it's also important to keep in mind that those guys weren't really young 18-year old, gullible artists. Wiz was the youngest out of all of them. They were mid to late 20s and they already had experience in the music industry, they were just unknown to most of mainstream. Take a look at Wiz's face when he's talking. And go back to Curren$y old interviews where he doesn't want to talk about Dame, same facial expression. I think Dame doesn't understand that some people can see when he's being genuine, but they can also see when he puts on his business mogul hat and he's trying to squeeze people out of what they worked for. Dame is a gem, a legend, a tycoon. But, he's bitter at times.
Yeah, he always talking about not taking things personal or men shouldn’t be in their feelings when he get in interviews and get in his feelings about everything that didn’t go his way in the music industry. This man had 50 million and blew it, now he’s bitter because nobody would do business with him because he burned every single business relationship he built. They dont owe him anything. They earned their millions and deserve every penny
You can’t own an Artist. This “your artist” is some slave master brain broken capitalist boot licker BS. He said it in the clip, “you can’t tell someone who’s never held a mill to not take a mill”
It ain't hard dame couldn't compete with these record labels. This happens all the time even in sports. Guys singing a deal without managers ect.. bc they like what they hear. But is either dudes currently relevant?
Currensy denied this. Look it up. The lawsuit never went through. Currensy didn't have money like that back then. Everything you see Currensy doing now he got all that from being around Dame.
@enzigenes nah not just dame. He learned from everyone, including dame, but also master p, folks at cashmoney, multiple ppl. Dame jus bein salty, this is nothin new
Crazy that nobody wants to listen or actually work with him. He s telling all these stories like it's matter. If you see what happened in the pass and now. Nothing really changed
Dame not telling the whole story. Another thing is by that point, he had already pretty much been blacklisted from the industry and no way possible any artist through Dame was going to get a proper situation that excels them. Curren$y, Wiz and Wale most def did not need Dame. Stalley who I was happy for getting his deal with MMG/Atlantic, but he should have stayed independent. Him signing with MMG is like Hopsin signing with QC.
I think they all wanted to be their own boss. Which is what you see now. Think they were getting millions regardless, because they were relentless with the work ethic. “Behind my back”. Bruh they don’t have to consult you lmfaoo. They grown ass men.
Curren$y still independent. bruh n wiz n Krit took them deals and flipped them and became rich and independent. They became that much more succesful without u. Wiz runs his own shyt while being on a major and Curren$y was better off without u. Grow tf up Dame.
His Eye is crazy , hate Dame if you want but his heartbjas always been in the right place and his business understanding has always been on point. Fck everyone saying Jay didn't need him , wrong for Jay to release his first album and the clothing situation, DAME was a must, even Biggs. After that, sure, he can break off and do him , but forever, it was a genesis that involved DAME. Much respect 🙏🏿
I didn't know Dame dash had a record company but like, Common says one day will all make sense now it makes sense to me so Dame is responsible for the jet Life sound because I've been a currency fan for a long time and the my two favorite albums that I like that's pilot talk one and pilot talk too Dame manage ski beats who was a part of the original flavor
I say he wasn't wrong for how he dealt with some of his artists but that creative control was some of the dope and stuff I've ever seen and I thought it was all currency idea Dame had some killers currency Stally and Big Krit imagine if it'll work out
Dame trippin with this one They all was doing they own thing too. They didn’t really sign to him it was like networking fr. If anything they was getting knowledge from dame.
Level up is the name of the game lol its about the "growth" and goals.....is not where you from is where you at - they got cash and fame when they left DAME 🤣🔥💯🎯😂
At what point does your wife/girl or even kids tell you “hey bro you sound bitter asf on these podcast” “you’re embarrassing the family” 🤦🏽♂️. Or does his family opinion not matter and only his opinion does. Him and katt Williams can’t be truly in love with a woman. When you’re truly in love you aren’t even thinking about anyone, most of all caring to speak on anyone else lol.
I've noticed that in every situation with every person that has fallen out with Dame, Dame is ALWAYS the victim. She gives narcissistic vibes fr lol they can never take responsibility for their role in things.
Curren$y is good living his Jet 🤙🏾 Life.

Not to mention Curren$y had already been on No Limit and Cash Money so it’s not like he was brand new to the game
In March 2012, news surfaced of legal action being taken against Damon Dash by Currensy.

Curren$y and wiz would definitely say “yeah it was worth it my nigga” 😭
Idk , in its long run we don't know for real, I wish them the best , but it's as if allloooot of shyt is getting exposed these days.
Didn't Currensy sue Damon 13 or 14 years ago for doing things behind currensy back without his consent???
For copyright infringement. He started putting out Spittas songs behind his back. Around Life Under the Scope times. Way back
Herd was doing that with ROC spending company Money with talking with his partners
100%
@@QuintonClark-me8cuand that's y Jay n Biggs cut him off
Yeah idk what to say, but they had to what's best for themselves. Eventually everyone wants to take it to the next level. But those Blu Roc days were special, I remember watching those back during the blog era.
Dame had artist development FORREEL !!!!
I’m siding with the planes lol… holla 🤙🏾

Dame has always shown people the way…most lack Vision, drive and the free spirit to be independent
Says a lot about Dame if all your artists taking deals behind your back 😂
True
You can’t own an Artist. This “your artist” is some slave master brain broken capitalist boot licker BS. He said it in the clip, “you can’t tell someone who’s never held a mill to not take a mill”

They also said currensy had to sue dame in order to get his money he withheld for a couple of years
Currensy denied this. Look it up. The lawsuit never went through. Currensy didn't have money like that back then. Everything you see Currensy doing now he got all that from being around Dame.
@enzigenes nah not just dame. He learned from everyone, including dame, but also master p, folks at cashmoney, multiple ppl. Dame jus bein salty, this is nothin new
3 sides to a story
Crazy that nobody wants to listen or actually work with him. He s telling all these stories like it's matter. If you see what happened in the pass and now. Nothing really changed

How you mad at bros getting money? How they go behind your back? Were they supposed to break you off something?
I think they all wanted to be their own boss. Which is what you see now. Think they were getting millions regardless, because they were relentless with the work ethic.
“Behind my back”. Bruh they don’t have to consult you lmfaoo. They grown ass men.
Regardless, those DD172 days were some of the best
Curren$y still independent. bruh n wiz n Krit took them deals and flipped them and became rich and independent. They became that much more succesful without u. Wiz runs his own shyt while being on a major and Curren$y was better off without u. Grow tf up Dame.
Jet life to tha next life 🤙🏾
Leave Spitta tf alone Dame
His Eye is crazy , hate Dame if you want but his heartbjas always been in the right place and his business understanding has always been on point.
Fck everyone saying Jay didn't need him , wrong for Jay to release his first album and the clothing situation, DAME was a must, even Biggs. After that, sure, he can break off and do him , but forever, it was a genesis that involved DAME.
Much respect 🙏🏿
I didn't know Dame dash had a record company but like, Common says one day will all make sense now it makes sense to me so Dame is responsible for the jet Life sound because I've been a currency fan for a long time and the my two favorite albums that I like that's pilot talk one and pilot talk too Dame manage ski beats who was a part of the original flavor
I mean if they werent gettin paid wtf you want em to do. Lol
Remain broke and loyal
I say he wasn't wrong for how he dealt with some of his artists but that creative control was some of the dope and stuff I've ever seen and I thought it was all currency idea Dame had some killers currency Stally and Big Krit imagine if it'll work out
Y’all just gonna leave out the part where he say him and spitta still cool now
Dame trippin with this one
They all was doing they own thing too. They didn’t really sign to him it was like networking fr. If anything they was getting knowledge from dame.
Exactly
That’s his opinion of his truth.
Maybe the common denominator is Dame. He will never see it though
Hopefully Cam and Mase willn't snake him like I think Math is going to be taking the deal
Level up is the name of the game lol its about the "growth" and goals.....is not where you from is where you at - they got cash and fame when they left DAME 🤣🔥💯🎯😂
if you wasn't trying to give them the money they were speaking about how they went behind your back they wasn't signed to you
FRFR
He telling the truth
MMG was the hottest thing out at the time so of course he took it. Plus he was able to actually drop a album under Ross.
Damn he had a good roster...krit
🤙🏾🤙🏾👈🏾
He said big krit name too
Sometimes the gass.it's'nt greener on the other side in the long run.
Stalley was never a good fit for MMG but Curren$y's deal worked out
"That hurt, pause" lol wtf dude just b pausing everything
At what point does your wife/girl or even kids tell you “hey bro you sound bitter asf on these podcast” “you’re embarrassing the family” 🤦🏽♂️. Or does his family opinion not matter and only his opinion does. Him and katt Williams can’t be truly in love with a woman. When you’re truly in love you aren’t even thinking about anyone, most of all caring to speak on anyone else lol.
Everybody independent until they take a deal they didn't have a agency go set up a 5mil deal they did it independently . Watch what u say Dash.
He can’t even say “Stalley” name correct… man I’m so over cuz smh
Be aware of a person who always plays the victim and is always talking about I did this, I did that, I had this, that’s how Satan talks
Dame has done right by who he reps
Why did yall total brush over Micah Da’ Vinci being next up dame said that also.
U cant fw the jets ✈️✈️✈️
I've noticed that in every situation with every person that has fallen out with Dame, Dame is ALWAYS the victim. She gives narcissistic vibes fr lol they can never take responsibility for their role in things.
DAME IS HIS OWN WORST ENEMY.
PLENTY GAME BUT HORRIBLE ENERGY
Stalley flopped
