Dame Dash is teaching us about what kids / youths needs and don't needs in 2024
Damon Anthony Dash (born May 3, 1971) is an American entrepreneur and record executive.[4] Dash is best known as co-founder of Roc-A-Fella along with Jay-Z and Kareem Burke.[5]
Early life
Born in New York City, Dash swept the floors of a local barbershop and sold newspapers in order to buy sneakers and shirts as a teenager. Dash "learned to hustle", in his own words, from the example of his mother, who died of an asthma attack when he was 15.[6] The same year, Dash was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes.[7] "Before I was diagnosed... I went about a month or two just going to the bathroom non-stop and losing weight," Dash recalled. "Magic Johnson had just been diagnosed with AIDS, so that's what I thought I had. I was scared to even go to the doctor. I thought I was going to die."[7]
Career
Dash served as Jay-Z's manager and business partner at Roc-A-Fella Records, and in 1999, he organized a tour for Jay-Z which made $19 million.[8] Their relationship soured as a result of two subsequent events. The first was when Roc-A-Fella Records was purchased by Def Jam Recordings (which had previously only owned half of the company) in 2004, after which Jay-Z agreed to take a job as Def Jam's president. Then, in late 2005, Jay-Z bought Dash out of his stake in Rocawear.[9]
In April 2014, it was announced that Dash is involved with Blind Debit, a fingerprint payment application being developed by Dez White.[10]
Dash founded DD172, a media collective which encompasses: America Nu, a magazine; VNGRD79, a web design firm; BluRoc Records, a record label division.[11] It also includes an art gallery.[12]
Personal life
Dash met R&B singer Aaliyah in New York City in the summer of 2000 through his accountant,[13][14] and dated her until her death on August 25, 2001, in a plane crash in The Bahamas.[15] Though they were not formally engaged, in interviews given after Aaliyah's death, Dash stated that the couple had planned to marry.[16]
In 2005, Dash married fashion designer Rachel Roy, whom he had dated prior to his relationship with Aaliyah. They met when she was working as an intern at Rocawear. Together they have two daughters, Ava Dash (born December 7, 1999) and Tallulah Dash (born May 14, 2008).[17] Following their divorce in 2009, they had a bitter custody battle.[18]
Dash has a son, Dame "Boogie" Dash (born November 28, 1991), with former girlfriend Linda Williams.[17] Boogie stars in the reality television show Growing Up Hip Hop.[19] He also has another son, Lucky, born in 2004 with Cindy Morales.[17][20]
Dash and his fiancée Raquel Horn have a son, Dusko Dash, born on November 14, 2020
