Yes Dames attitude got the worst of him. A brazzen Antelope trying to lead lions. You contrast him and Diddy, Diddy always put lesser people out there, he always was in control. Dame tried to lead a herd of Alphas and they punked him. The minute Jay could not see him as a equal on all fronts he jumped ship. I looked up to Dame growing up, he perceived to be. Living the lifestyle and banging the broads I wanted. His new venture does sound really weak but for him he adds credibility to the Asian hip-hop market. He can cake of his name/image alone there even if he has taken tumbles domestically.
Dames biggest downfall IMO was not being innovative enough. He had probably the most lucrative roster in hip-hop and still relied on conventional means to make cash. They were doing all sorts of business deals and branding but he could of figured out a way to cut up that pie better, push harder for internet content and giving that cash to his artists or something. The mess at the ROC got way to big for one man to try and control. To much ego and money will crumble any empire if there is not a common goal that keeps evreybody in check.
