Cam’ron
and
Dame
Dash
have
had
a
tight
relationship
for
decades,
which
many
felt
might’ve
played
a
part
in
the
downfall
of
Roc-A-Fella
Records.
So
when
OG
Hip-Hop
exec
Steve
Stoute
put
the
blame
of
the
Roc’s
breakup
squarely
on
the
shoulders
of
Dame,
Cam
and
Mase
came
to
the
defense
of
Jay-Z’s
former
business
partner.
In
a
recent
interview
with
Shannon
Sharpe
on
Club
Shay
Shay,
Steve
Stoute
suggested
that
Jay-Z
outgrew
Dame
Dash’s
“crazy”
antics
while
they
were
working
together
at
Roc-A-Fella
and
wanted
to
pursue
bigger
and
better
things.
Taking
issue
with
Stoute’s
perspective
on
the
matter,
Cam’ron
and
Mase
stood
up
for
Dame
on
their
show,
It
Is
What
It
Is.
Cam
and
Mase
talked
about
how
Dame
put
a
lot
of
people
in
a
position
to
win
in
life
and
even
inspired
Cam
to
take
his
career
more
seriously
than
he
was
at
the
time.
After
Mase
reminded
everyone
that
Dame
gave
a
lot
of
Harlemites
jobs
in
the
music
industry,
Cam
chimed
in.
“Oh,
absolutely.
It’s
a
bunch
of
people
outside
of
me
that
are
still
in
prominent
positions
now,”
Cam
said.
“Dame
gets
perceived
the
wrong
way
because
of
his
attitude.
He’s
very
arrogant
but
he’s
very
smart.
But
the
thing
about
it
is,
Dame
is
going
to
do
what
works
for
Dame
and
at
this
point
you
got
to
accept
him,”
Cam
said.
“Either
love
him
or
hate
him
for
who
he
is
’cause
he’s
not
changing,
and
he’s
been
successful
at
helping
build
$100
million
companies
—
not
just
one,
but
multiple,”
the
“Oh
Boy”
rapper
continued.
“And
some
people
are
never
going
to
see
$100
million
in
they
life,
so
I
think
he’s
capable
of
doing
anything
in
the
world.
But
sometimes
to
me,
to
Cam,
the
way
he
presents
himself
to
other
people
is
a
turn
off.
He’s
an
acquired
taste,
pause.”
Dame
for
his
part
didn’t
take
kindly
to
Steve
Stoute’s
take
on
the
Roc’s
downfall.
He
took
to
IG
to
express
his
feelings
on
the
matter
by
posting
a
clip
of
Stoute’s
interview
with
a
caption
that
read,
“This
is
the
reason
I
had
to
smack
the
shit
out
of
@stevestoute
a
couple
years
ago…because
he’s
always
speaking
on
other
men’s
business
good
thing
I’ve
evolved
#staytuned”
Steve
Stoute
got
slapped
up
by
Dame
Dash
and
Diddy
(allegedly)
on
separate
occasions?!
That
man
gotta
stop
messing
around
with
dudes
who
got
the
letter
“D”
in
their
names
or
something.
What
do
y’all
think
of
the
situation?
Was
Dame
to
blame
for
Roc-A-Fella
breaking
up?
Should
Stoute
be
throwing
his
2
cents
in
on
the
matter?
