Dame Dash Wants To Patch Things Up With Jay-Z

by Daryl Nelson

Ever since Jay-Z and Dame Dash fell out with each other after selling their label Roc-A-Fella Records in 2004, Dame has spent a lot of time bashing Jay.

But in a newly released interview, Dame says he wants to patch things up between himself and the veteran rapper. [Jump to the 13:57 mark]

"My friendship comes before the business," said Dame. "Where I'm at now is that if Roc-A-Fella and the ones that weren't billionaires want to get money on the right terms I'm down. I'm telling you publicly I will [have a conversation], and I've never not said that. But Jay's never had that accountability to have that real conversation with me."

He continued. "I always said as a man that we could always talk it up. Men should always be able to talk things up ... I know the world would love to see it and I'm down for it. If we could create something that inspires me, period. I don't want to be f*cking running on the stage dancing around. I'm too chubby for that right now."

It's safe to assume that working with Dame again is the farthest thing from Jay's mind.
