Music mogul Damon “Dame” Dash‘s son found himself in handcuffs last month on a driving under the influence charge.
According to reports, Damon “Boogie” Dash sparked cops’ attention when he started straddling lanes in May.
Law enforcement sources tell us the “Growing Up Hip Hop” star was pulled over for weaving earlier this month … and when cops spoke to him they thought he might be under the influence. We’re told field sobriety testing did not go well for Dash, and he was arrested for misdemeanor DUI. (TMZ)
Earlier this week, former Roc-A-Fella producer Just Blaze confirmed having past issues with Dame Dash.
Recently, Dash talked about how Jay Z‘s Roc brand fell apart after he stepped away from the company in the mid-2000’s.
“Roc-A-Fella doesn’t exist anymore really and it never did since I left, neither does Rocawear. Actually, name something that I created and left that still exists. No, for real. All of those things. I knew once I walked away from Roc-A-Fella that it wasn’t going to exist no more and Rocawear. I was like y’all head that ship for the next three years and then it’s on a Titanic. They just didn’t want me to have it, they didn’t want us to have it. Roc-A-Fella wasn’t doing bad when it had Kanye, Jay, Cam’ron it had all of those things, right?” (“Dr. Boyce Watkins”)
Dame also talked about his disinterest in following Jay’s music business blueprint.
“It wasn’t about being cool. If he would’ve been cool about me doing my own thing, because I was cool with him doing his own thing. I didn’t want to do that no more. Regardless of what he did, I wasn’t in the Jay Z business no more. I had already moved my sh*t to Rocawear and created Rachel Roy. I was done with hip hop and music. They could have that block. I wanted to sell a whole ‘nother drug. I was bored with it. I was done with it.” (“Dr. Boyce Watkins”)
