HAHA, dudes are full of it Rome.

Good post. Cause one hand lame dudes talk about *making it out the hood* and *hustlin, grindin, movin weight* and whatever other cool names one can think of..

But when SOMEBODY FINALLY SHOWS THAT PERFECT EXAMPLE of the Urban Entrepreneur......lame dudes are hating. They'll stay on the sidelines while someone with a business mind like Jay will take a chance on some ventures and make something of it.

RISK its the name of the game. And his track record shows that he is solid.

Don't get mad at me because U Dumb. I didn't post 200k... you did.

... I doubt if you have ever even seen 2k (other than the turn of the millenium).

Why can't you just give the brotha man props. He was a rapper, he wasn't a clothing designer. He took his rap money and fame and marketed a clothing line that people liked. Somebody made him a huge offer for something he just decided to do one day ... and he took it.

What if he just started another one... and did the same thing... that wouldn't be shyt either hah? What Puff did with cologne wasn't shyt either hah? Puff should just wear Polo cologne and not get his hands in it hah? Jay should've left the clothing game to Karl Kani hah?

YOU'S A PAPER CHASER GOT YO BLOCK ON FIRE... REMAININ' A G...
 
yea thats coo - it still foul how he took the label from dash and now wont look his was or speak to em and that a nigga that helped put em on

:hello:

You forgot the period. I fixed that for you. No need to thank me.

Anyway insulting the guy aint going to help the situation is it? he is allowed to have an opinion even if its not based on fact. I don't know why you even care so much.

Take a step back and look at what your doing. Its not a good look.

I'm going to have a beer and go to bed. Leave you guys to it :monkey:

From CNN:
A year later, Jay-Z acquired Dash's stake in Rocawear, the clothing label the pair created a decade ago.
Even without Jay-Z in tow, Dash's burgeoning empire goes well beyond music. He dabbles in films, fashion, boxing, publishing and even alcohol.
He is estimated to be worth $50 million dollars and he told CNN his goal is to eventually have a billion dollars behind him.
He has recently launched a campaign to advertise his stable of brands.



You feel sorry for this dude???

You forgot the period to. But I fixed it, just doing my duty as an upstanding member of FP.

Stop taking this thread off topic. You should ban yourself. :cheers:

Jay should buy FP.

Also, Jay-Z didn't take anything from Dame. Dame sold off his share and Jay-Z purchased it.

204 million$? Is it really worth that much?

Maybe I'm triping or delerious but wasnt it doing more than like 60 million a year. If it kept up the same momentum...he coulda made that in a couple of years. 204 million sounds like a lot in your hands but rocawear as an investment should be worth far more over a 10 year period but Jay-Z might not have had faith in the long term success or might try to come out with directly or be the secret partner of a new more successful brand. Dame Dash should feel stupid for selling his half for 30 million when rocafella records split.

Most of these dudes are bitter on false information, act like they know the dude and start spewing lies and half truths.

Bitterness.....it's contagious. Isn't that right.....Noblewordz HAHA.
