Damon Dash Claims Kanye West Hates Jay-Z
November 18th, 2008 | Posted in Celebrity News
Fallen music mogul Damon Dash has reportedly been spreading rumors about his estranged business partner, Jay-Z.
According to the New York Daily News, the co-founder of Roc-A-Fella Records claims Jay-Z set off a feud with Kanye West by refusing to “knight” him with a shiny chain at a 2003 Chicago concert.
“This nigga [Kanye] was like, ‘Wow. [Jay-Z] ain’t going to give me the chain,’” Dame alleges in December’s Complex magazine. “I had to take off my chain and give it to him, and I was heated. I had the real canary diamonds. That shit cost $40,000! I told Kanye, ‘Yo, you got to give that back when we get off this stage!’”
Mr. Dash insists that after Jay-Z violated the code of hip-hop chivalry, “Kanye hated Jay-Z.” However, a rep for Kanye has dismissed the allegations as “ridiculous and totally false.”
Dame apparently fabricated the story to promote his latest protégé, rapper Jim Jones. “This is sad,” says one source. “Damon does this every time he’s promoting an artist. He just makes things up.”

Hip-Hop mogul Damon Dash and his wife Rachel Roy have formed a $4 billion dollar joint venture with Jones Apparel Group Inc. to develop, market and license the New York-based fashion brand named after his wife. Here’s the scoop:
Under the terms of the agreement, Jones owns 50% of the joint venture interest. The remaining interest is owned by the two founders, Rachel Roy and Damon Dash, as well as TSM Capital which acquired a minority stake in the business last November.
Jones said it will assume operations of the existing designer collection business under license with the new joint venture.
Damon Dash helped Jay-Z take Roc-A-Fella Records from the streets to the corporate level and he hopes to do the same with the Rachel Roy fashion brand.
