Former Roc-A-Fella Records co-owner Damon "Dame" Dash and protégé Kanye West finally reunited this weekend at the 2015 BET Honors awards show following their publicized label split in the mid-2000's.
Dame posted up a picture alongside his daughter and Kanye to Instagram late Saturday (January 24) night after presenting him the Visionary Award.

Upon receiving his award, Kanye spent a few moments to reflect on his life and accomplishments.
Creativity is a fight. You can't be the kid in the back of the room being made fun of. Get up and smack somebody – Kanye west #BETHonors

They say white girls go out and get a rich black dude. But my wife dated broke black dudes. So it's not about the money – Kanye #BETHonors

Coincidentally, Dame singled out Kanye and said he should feel a responsibility for reaching out to jailed ex-Roc owner Kareem “Biggs” Burke last summer.
“I’m a little tight with Kanye because he hasn’t reached out to Biggs,” Dame revealed in an interview. “I don’t like that sh*t. So, Kanye holla at me. I don’t like that. It’s terrible. Biggs was the one that really was like ‘Yo Dame, pay attention to what Kanye’s doing. Make sure you send him that music.’ … No one’s reaching back. Certain n*gga have. And that’s why I’m not calling everybody up, but Kanye hasn’t. And he hasn’t checked on his kid. He hasn’t checked on his family. No trial, none of that. And the sh*t I’m hearing him complain about is irrelevant. Based on the fact that he doesn’t look back to the people that helped him – I gotta have a conversation with him.” (Shade 45)
Although Dash did not name-drop anyone at the time, he admitted handfuls of Biggs’ comrades needed to look out for him last April.
“He’s doing time and he’s doing it like a gentleman. I’m not too satisfied with the support of other people that he’s looked out for over the years,” Dame said in an interview. “I’m not happy with that. … He’s going to do his time like a man, he’s not going to tell on anybody, he’s not going to complain and that’s what he’s doing. … We talk every day, we send pictures but I’m just really disappointed in the core of people. … To anybody that’s doing all right that Biggs’ help, if they’re not volunteering to look out for him, then they’re dark and they’re evil and that’s foul and that’s definitely not Harlem.” (RapFix)
What happened to Dame’s tooth?
Dame Dash is definitely full on crazy! Considering the fact teeth implants are way too expensive to be pulled out, Dame simply “performed” a dental surgery by literally getting rid of his own front dental implant.After the his nutty performance, the New York Native smiled big for the camera and tagged his dentist to express his frustration of the expensive procedure
That TOOF tho….
