AUDIO: Dame Dash & Just Blaze on The Combat Jack Show

damedash

This is the one you’ve been waiting for. Damon Dash talks Aliyah, life without Jay Z, how he’s completely done with the music game, why he was an asshole to anyone who got in his way and why the kind of “broke” he is might be the best thing in the world. We also get some very tense moments as Just Blaze finally airs out why he didn’t eff with Dame for over ten years. Ya’ll truly ain’t ready for this dynasty thing.
