Damon Dash Explains Why Kanye West Is The 'New Michael Jackson'

by Daryl Nelson

Damon Dash is the person who's responsible for getting Kanye West signed to Roc-A-Fella Records back in the day. So, it makes sense that he has a lot to say about Jeen-Yuhs, the new Netflix documentary that shows Ye's come up.

Dame spoke about the doc, as well as Kanye's position in entertainment with The Jasmine Brand, and he believes that Ye has taken the place of a super iconic singer.

"He's turing into our new Michael Jackson, whether that's negative or positive," said Dame. "Every move he makes, everybody’s paying attention to … he triggers the world.”
