kelvin beatty he needs to stop trying to show lol Jay z dont need to show we already know !!!!he has a complex worse than others u can tell hes not the same quick to shit cause he been thru shit since they left eachother just fronting like the new comers!
kelvin beatty lol funny everyone defending Dame but I grew up with this man. Yelling at people, pouring liquor on women, promoting ignorant rapper lifestyle. And where's the black people that work for you Dame? Oh yea, your Limo driver was black lol
It's ok to tell... his "sentiment" is that you shouldn't be in his business unless he allows you in(and that goes for more than just money). I'm the same way.. people don't need to know how much I make unless I tell them.
HoneyB SweetNectar What do you consider good investments today don't say stocks they're like rolling dice, CDs are shit bonds are ok Real Estate and E-commerce is good.
Dame is a straight up old school hustla. He will never be broke. He wasn't as rich as he used to be with jay, but he's still getting money. His own money. And he has blacks working for him. ppl of colors and nationality. He was trying to build an empire with jay, something black owned and muscled from the ground. no body is perfect, but u got to respect this man's hustle and train of thought. We can learn from dudes like him.
That clothing line, which was the basis for this video, is done for. Their twitter account only has 29 followers, they haven't tweeted since April 2012 and their website links to Dr. Jay's website because their online store shut down, and Dr. Jay's doesn't carry their clothes. Plus, those clothes looked like ass.
Any REAL business minded people know that when in the building stages of a particular brand there are set backs & moments where you simply have to redefine your approach, name or even the entire idea. Maybe something is being drawn up, maybe the name has changed, or maybe he's no longer under Dr.Jay & is building his own web store form the ground up & of course we can't forget the fact that he may took it out of America & its doing well in one of the other 200 countries...
@Batman totally agree. Not withstanding that its not even clear to me when this vid was even shot. I think what Dame knows how to do WELL IS hitch his wagon to the RIGHT stars that includes Rachel Roy and Jay. He still eating from Rachel's brand he helped to build. And I dont think thats necessarily a bad thing, because he brought something collectively to both tables. And as a entrepreneur not all your attempts will be home runs. Its the law of averages at play. Fast Failure and Faster Implementation until something sticks. This line aint it though.
Dame Dash is probably not broke... what he does is purchase assets with the revenue from his businesses. This enables his businesses to preserve their capital, while reducing the taxable income of their officers (Dame Dash) and/or the businesses themselves, due to the fact that they are spending their capital on (hopefully legitimate) expenses. Even if Damon Dash has a negative 2M personal net worth, his businesses are shielded from his debts., assuming they are corporations or LLC's. Every business expense he has (payroll, asset purchases, etc.) reduces his taxable income. If he spends it all on business expenses, which he says he does, there are no tax liabilities for his businesses, and he does not have to collect a salary. He just lives off of his business' assets. He may not be rich, but his businesses are; so he has legal access to millions whenever he wants them. For anyone who doesn't understand, this is what he is doing.
No matter what you think the brothers economic status is, he's never had a job and he still doesn't. And lives in beautiful homes, but gets ridiculed from wage earners. Simple minded
Yeah true dame is a boss. the game need men like him ! these guys, now lack boss qualities and, need a leader in this industry lol. and they lack true hustle. I'm a boss too just not with money I have respect and pull wherever I go because I give it :-)
Smoke your weed with no hassle while getting legal paper, Dame, where the fuck do I sign up? The rarely seen life of a black man. Kids remember Knowledge Reigns Supreme Over Nearly Everyone!
Success is not measured with paper currency, its valued by longevity. The stock market goes up and down but for a couple hundred years there has always been a market. (Hint) longevity.
This is exactly WHY Dame is broke. He bleeds through cash, wasting it on private jets. It’s 5 years later I’ve never seen anyone wearing this clothing line. All that money went down a black hole, now he can’t pay $2400 in child support and asks RUclipsrs for $500 to interview him.
He paid for all this with the money he was supposed to spend on child support, rent, paying his employees and paying artists he rips off. With the money I make I'd be driving a Bentley too if I didnt pay my bills.
Mf's kill me with that a non black girl wont love you shit. Im in canada and its a predominantly caucasion population. My wife is russian. Weve been together five years and weve had our times here and there but for the most part things have been bless and I know 100% she loves me. Theres good and bad women of every race, its your job to pic the right one!
Ignorant people and young people think that rich is living in the public's eye i.e. famous. Dame Dash may not have the fame of Jay-Z in the mainstream media, but because Dame Dash is an entrepreneur, and is free i.e. controls his own decisions, his potential is limitless. African descendent parents and elders need to start providing their children with a financial education. Yes Jay-Z is an entrepreneur of sorts, but he is also still controlled by those who own the music industry, and other mediums. This is also why he does nothing for the black community, just like the rest of the sold out MFs.
# will mcghee ..I'am god black AUSAR aka skywalker lord of the black rings thats how blind you are ,,,,,,[face all over FEDTUBE ......] just like a ROOKIE blood gang TTP BOMPTON
Dame is a teacher,he inspires and gives you lessons on being independent. Dont count a person's wins and losses and then come up with a frivolous anwser about their success. Success isnt net worth success is who did you help,what positive influence have you made in this society. Dame has done it all have you?
This Video is at least 3-4 years old. Damon Dash is an American record producer, entrepreneur and music executive who has a net worth of negative $2 million. Damon Dash is probably most famous for co-founding the music label Roc-A-Fella Records. Dash co-founded Roc-A-Fella with rapper Jay Z. Born May 3, 1971 in Harlem, New York, Damon Dash was at one time one of Hip-Hop's most successful moguls. As Roc-A-Fella records sky rocketed in popularity, Damon saw his net worth rise to an all time peak of $50 million. Unfortunately, the good times did not last forever. During his divorce proceedings, Dash revealed to a judge that he owed $2 million in back taxes and was in the midst of foreclosure on two New York city apartments. He was also being sued by several NYC law firms and various other creditors for lack of payment. His Chevy Tahoe had been repossessed after he could not keep up with the $700 monthly payments. Dash was forced to vacate his $9 million Tribeca New York home which was later sold in foreclosure for $5.5 million. Meanwhile, Jay-Z would go on to sell Rocawear to Iconix Brand Group for $219 million. In August 2015, it was revealed that Damon Dash owes $4.14 million in back taxes to the state of New York.
to look someone in the eye esp a friend in the eye and tell them the bs they doing with no fear whatsoever of the consequences. you gotta admire those balls
he still flock together with Rich people He still a Rich nigga keep doing ya thing Dame you must be doin something right becuz they still talking about you good or bad
you are doing YOU!! I respect that and thanks so much for sharing it with all of us and could you help me buy a car,i really need help and i thank you so much!
When you have the brains, connections and the motivation that a guy like Damon Dash has, "Broke" is just bad year. He can bounce back just like that with 1 good idea though because he has the network of people who can fund and put his ideas into motion.
Kevin Hart gave a throwback Thursday shout out to Dame for putting him in the movie 'Paper Soldiers' an thanking him, what does Dame say back? Fuck all that shout out shit an bring me some money! Yea ok Dame, you're not broke!
Dame ain't nowhere near broke, he may not have access to the money that he wants but he can get at some dough if he needed it. I'm in a similar situation with my businesses, I'm always flipping my money that comes in and looks like I'm broke but not really. Dame is a very smart man and has mastered this game that the big boys were playing 50-60 years ago. It's not hidden anymore, get educated and come up to the table of much, there is plenty to get.
He still got paper his style is a little different from others ! This man always had money and always will have money sometimes you have to start over smart move Dame! Baller for life!
It looks like a lot of debt to me. If you are doing a bunch of frivolous spending all on credit and borrowed money then that is not wealth building nor is it a sign of wealth. Watch any episode of "American Greed", there are people who live like this everyday without having a dime to their name.
Cavi Life is a failed business from 3 years ago. All the money went to renting cars and private jets instead of the business. You can't run a real business like a rap label...you gotta produce something more than an image
Your health is your wealth!
I wish I was broke like Dame Dash!
shit me too this is way better then my version of broke
+MrCoughupalung me too bro...me too lol
+Nitro R Haaaa ya niggas stupid bro!!! But yall aint lyin
don't believe the hype...
nigga Dame is washed. nothing but propaganda made for the internet
The man doing what the fuck he wants who care if he's broke or not he living and that's what matter most
finally someone in these fucking comments makes sense
That's the true meaning of being rich doing what you want to so instead of doing what you have to do
kelvin beatty He's a living legend and that's all that matters.
kelvin beatty he needs to stop trying to show lol Jay z dont need to show we already know !!!!he has a complex worse than others u can tell hes not the same quick to shit cause he been thru shit since they left eachother just fronting like the new comers!
kelvin beatty lol funny everyone defending Dame but I grew up with this man. Yelling at people, pouring liquor on women, promoting ignorant rapper lifestyle. And where's the black people that work for you Dame? Oh yea, your Limo driver was black lol
dame hella smart...so he will make paper regardless..
The reason why you should never worry about another Man's pockets. -Dame Dash
+Marcus Thomas Funny how this is coming from a man who stay telling everyone what's in his pockets.
It's funny because it's true!!!!!
It's ok to tell... his "sentiment" is that you shouldn't be in his business unless he allows you in(and that goes for more than just money). I'm the same way.. people don't need to know how much I make unless I tell them.
Musa I of Mali that's y jay z kicked his ass to the curb fake ass.
If ur rich, I would think the best thing is for everyone to think ur broke. No ones asking for money or trying to rob u.
true
agreed
segil123 I agree unfortunately a lot blacks people don't understand that....money long term and investments
HoneyB SweetNectar What do you consider good investments today don't say stocks they're like rolling dice, CDs are shit bonds are ok Real Estate and E-commerce is good.
segil123 very "introspective"! Nice!
hell yeah he's broke and i'll love to be his kinda broke!!!!!
Nigga Dame revolutionize the term "I'm Broke Baby"
Dame is a straight up old school hustla. He will never be broke. He wasn't as rich as he used to be with jay, but he's still getting money. His own money.

independence is the only key to real freedom & Dame got dat locked...Respect due 2 him.....!!

these Internet bums don't care to understand
you have no idea what you're talking about..
what people don't understand is dame isn't broke, he just doesn't hold on to his money.
Legend has it that Bleek is somewhere cuddling with his Def Jam jacket with his name on it!!!
I wish I were broke like Dame.
No matter what you think the brothers economic status is, he's never had a job and he still doesn't. And lives in beautiful homes, but gets ridiculed from wage earners. Simple minded
thank u!

Dame is brains..and no sell out 💯
Hip Hop needs Dame back in the game
Yeah true dame is a boss. the game need men like him ! these guys, now lack boss qualities and, need a leader in this industry lol. and they lack true hustle. I'm a boss too just not with money I have respect and pull wherever I go because I give it :-)

Smoke your weed with no hassle while getting legal paper, Dame, where the fuck do I sign up? The rarely seen life of a black man. Kids remember Knowledge Reigns Supreme Over Nearly Everyone!
Success is not measured with paper currency, its valued by longevity. The stock market goes up and down but for a couple hundred years there has always been a market. (Hint) longevity.
Dame owns reasonable doubt he could never go broke
He's not broke and never was he's just worth a lot less then before
This is exactly WHY Dame is broke. He bleeds through cash, wasting it on private jets. It’s 5 years later I’ve never seen anyone wearing this clothing line. All that money went down a black hole, now he can’t pay $2400 in child support and asks RUclipsrs for $500 to interview him.
he's even broker right now. it's 2024 and he's still crying about his child support..lol
He paid for all this with the money he was supposed to spend on child support, rent, paying his employees and paying artists he rips off. With the money I make I'd be driving a Bentley too if I didnt pay my bills.

Daskeladden1 but OWN the Masters to Jay Z reasonable doubt album? NOT broke @ all

When a person has ideas that generate profits he will never be broke. Just my view.
Update: Damon Dash is still broke and no one is returning his phone calls.

you realize net worth doesnt necessarily account for anything lol at one time it said 400 million -> guess you're slave broke
It only accounts for everything one owns, but sure it doesn't mean anything.
to look someone in the eye esp a friend in the eye and tell them the bs they doing with no fear whatsoever of the consequences. you gotta admire those balls
Glad to see him making big moves again.
"So you fly private?" Lol dude looked at him like, " So that is how fools spend their money"
This video reeks of trying too hard and posing.
bigart1993 indeed
Right! You dont have to do all that if your truly flossing.
00:18 "...when is this nigga gonna shut the fuck up?" -The Girl.
He called the Peacock an Ostrich Lmao He was torched.
Dame has wisdom. We can all learn 🙌
looks like berners cookie brand, with the clothes maybe thats wher he got that idea
What rock music was that when they were in the jet? The Black Keys?
If he is so rich why is this filmed in 360p?
Apex DRM hahah you ppl are fuckin fools
Dame is that nigga, with or without J... Mad respect for this man
I get mad respect Dame. This dude is real. period!
salute on making boss moves
What do consider broke. He doesn't work for nobody. So how does he pay bills and eat. That man ain't broke.
yo dame, if you came through my block? there might be no more dame
He's broke this is from 4 yearss ago.... All his cribs repoed. Tax evasion, bankruptcy. 2mill at least in the hole. Karma!

THEY SMOKIN ON A PRIVE JET......GANGSTA. BROKE OR NOT.
a Hell of a manager.
This man is to business minded to ever go broke remember that!!!
When you have the brains, connections and the motivation that a guy like Damon Dash has, "Broke" is just bad year. He can bounce back just like that with 1 good idea though because he has the network of people who can fund and put his ideas into motion.
That's my business law professor @ 11:59, that's clean
Kevin Hart gave a throwback Thursday shout out to Dame for putting him in the movie 'Paper Soldiers' an thanking him, what does Dame say back? Fuck all that shout out shit an bring me some money! Yea ok Dame, you're not broke!
Dame broke ain't same as my broke
LOVE IT!!!! DAME DASH LIVING THAT LIFE!!!
if death row never fell apart and dame blew up I bet suge would've started shit with em
The infamous line from 2Pac "Ain't no nigga like me, fuck Jay Z..." Hence Ether...
this guy Dame is doomed for life. He will never come back to fortune again after Jay-Z dumped him. His days are long gone.
Yet, he has more than you.
u sound like a single mom
Woo! That Ghost clean!!
Dame dash is the fucking man
Never seen dame so nice
and anyway...WHAT DOES HIS POCKETS HAVE 2 DO WITH ANY OF US ANYWAY?!?!
I wish dame all the luck in the world on Cavi.. I'm not sure if its introduced to the world yet... But I hope it does well...
hope u win dame! good video
What's the song playing while Dame is at the beach...it's a banger.
Dame ain't nowhere near broke, he may not have access to the money that he wants but he can get at some dough if he needed it. I'm in a similar situation with my businesses, I'm always flipping my money that comes in and looks like I'm broke but not really.

He still got paper his style is a little different from others ! This man always had money and always will have money sometimes you have to start over smart move Dame! Baller for life!
It's called having access to connections. and he still have them.
Looks broke, sounds broke, he ain’t high flyer…. $2 Billion - Jay Z
Good Bud + Private Jet = Getting High.
It's funny how so many haters came here to hate on Dame.
It looks like a lot of debt to me. If you are doing a bunch of frivolous spending all on credit and borrowed money then that is not wealth building nor is it a sign of wealth. Watch any episode of "American Greed", there are people who live like this everyday without having a dime to their name.
I Bramblebush Good point
I Bramblebush Very True!!!
I Bramblebush How does this look like debt??? Seeing him work WHERE did u see him borrow anything
It's called using other ppl money. Wealth does it all the time never use their own cash only use debt (borrowed money)
Then you don't understand Dame's message. He doesn't use borrowed money. He only uses his money.
Keep doing your thing Dame show them a real boss
The day I become like dame dash means I've just won a lottery lol
Well his broke would be my vision of rich then shess... salute dame dash 👍👍👍
"What does it profit a man to gain the whole world but lose his soul?"
Dame too smart to be broke
Cavi Life is a failed business from 3 years ago. All the money went to renting cars and private jets instead of the business. You can't run a real business like a rap label...you gotta produce something more than an image
How many clothing lines do you own?
IMpowerglobal Same number of clothing businesses as you own
william smith exactly, it's always so easy to tell someone how they should run their business
Dame Dash doesn't respect the consumers who buy his products. So why should we support him.
exactly
