In a candid interview with America Nu, Dame Dash didn’t hold back when addressing the swirling rumors linking JAY-Z to Diddy’s latest legal drama. The allegations, centering around Diddy’s infamous “freak-off” parties and his federal RICO investigation, have caused shockwaves in the Hip-Hop world.
“You hate to see it, man,” Dame admitted, clearly uneasy about the situation. “Watching what’s happening to Puff… it’s wild. And now, hearing JAY’s name get thrown in? Nah, that’s a tough pill to swallow.” Despite their rocky history, Dame expressed concern, particularly with rumors suggesting JAY could be implicated next year.
However, Dame couldn’t hide his disbelief at the rumors. “The stuff they’re saying… it’s wild,” he continued. “Do I want it to be true? Hell no. I don’t even wanna think about it. But now they’re talking about picking JAY up next year? Nah, man, that can’t be real.” Even though they’ve had their differences, Dame still hopes this is just smoke and no fire.
In addition, Dame Dash pointed out the potential impact this could have on the entire culture. “Jay’s a pillar, man. If this goes south, Hip-Hop looks crazy. Period. It’s a bad look for everyone.” He even mentioned JAY-Z’s personal role as godfather to Dame’s son, Boogie. “How you gonna be my son’s godfather and be wrapped up in some freak-off mess? That don’t sit right.”
Despite the shocking nature of these rumors, Dame admitted he’s still holding out hope that it’s all just speculation. As a result, if the accusations prove to be true, it could shake the foundations of Hip-Hop.
