Recently, for example, he commented on artists becoming podcasters. He pointed to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hotnewhiphop.com\/profile\/joebudden\" class=\"font-semibold hover:text-accent-color border-b-2 border-accent-color\" target=\"\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Joe Budden<\/a> in particular, claiming that he used to be a Roc-A-Fella artist. Budden later discussed this on his podcast, arguing that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hotnewhiphop.com\/124500-dame-dash-pops-off-in-lyor-cohen-rant-joe-budden-says-hell-organize-the-smoke-news\" target=\"\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"font-semibold hover:text-accent-color border-b-2 border-accent-color\">this isn&#8217;t really the case.<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">&#8220;Dame said that all of the hot podcasters are Roc-A-Fella podcasters,&#8221; he began. &#8220;He said &#8216;I thought all of y&#8217;all were rockstars, not chatty little b*tches.&#8217; He didn&#8217;t say that, but that&#8217;s what he was trying to say. [&#8230;] Leave me out of all that. Whatever you&#8217;re doing, my name should have nothing to do with that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">&#8220;I was Roc-A-Fella for 79 seconds and I keep it a secret. It&#8217;s not something I run around promoting or I&#8217;m proud of. I ain&#8217;t release an album on Roc-A-Fella, I ain&#8217;t put a song out on Roc-A-Fella, I didn&#8217;t get a Roc-A-Fella chain, I ain&#8217;t get a Roc-A-Fella cup of coffee,&#8221; Budden continued. &#8220;I didn&#8217;t get a Roc-A-Fella penny. So when you&#8217;re having these Roc-A-Fella conversations [&#8230;] keep me out of that. I&#8217;m not a Roc-A-Fella rapper, artist, podcaster. I don&#8217;t have nothing to do with that none of that sh*t.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Was Joe Budden Signed To Roc-A-Fella?<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">During a recent interview with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=a2cQ6FzviR4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"font-semibold hover:text-accent-color border-b-2 border-accent-color\">Cam Capone News,<\/a> Dame reacted to Budden&#8217;s remarks. He claimed that while he and Kareem &#8220;Biggs&#8221; Burke voted yes on Budden, it was a no from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hotnewhiphop.com\/profile\/jayz\" class=\"font-semibold hover:text-accent-color border-b-2 border-accent-color\" target=\"\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Jay-Z<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">&#8220;Just because I was CEO doesn&#8217;t mean that I could just make moves. I had to get approval from Jay, Lyor, Biggs, and myself and then everyone would have to sign off on it,&#8221; he explained. &#8220;When I started doing business with Joe Budden it was towards the end. So it was one of them situations where we voted, and Jay-Z voted no but me and Biggs voted yes. But then, you know, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hotnewhiphop.com\/950968-dame-dash-jay-z-selfish-neglecting-artists-hip-hop-news\" target=\"\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"font-semibold hover:text-accent-color border-b-2 border-accent-color\">there was no more Roc-A-Fella.&#8221;<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">&#8220;He said I loaned him money, you think I loaned him my money?&#8221; Dame asked. &#8220;That was Roc-A-Fella money. And we wasn&#8217;t that cool for me to just give him some money, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hotnewhiphop.com\/871910-dame-dash-jay-z-prevented-joe-budden-roc-a-fella-album-hip-hop-news\" target=\"\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"font-semibold hover:text-accent-color border-b-2 border-accent-color\">it was a business thing.<\/a> So yes, he was a Roc-A-Fella. Never got recognized as one because it was over.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dame Dash has had his fair share of disagreements with peers throughout his career.
