Dame Dash recently opened up about his departure from Roc-A-Fella Records, directly linking it to Jay-Z's collaboration with R. Kelly. In a candid interview with 'The Art of Dialogue,' Dash expressed his deep disapproval of the partnership.

The core issue stemmed from R. Kelly's marriage to Aaliyah, Dash's former girlfriend, when she was only 15 years old. Dash confronted Jay-Z about working with R. Kelly, stating, "Everybody knew R. Kelly married Aaliyah at 15. How you gonna do a project with a n-gga that raped my motherfucking girl?"

According to Dash, Jay-Z's response was dismissive, claiming he "ain't have nothing to do with that." This collaboration ultimately led to Dash's voluntary departure from Roc-A-Fella Records, despite the financial implications. "I left Roc-A-Fella. It wasn't that I got kicked out; I left. I said 'fuck all the money, fuck all this shit. I'm out.'"

Recent developments reveal that Dash's share in Jay-Z's album "Reasonable Doubt" sold at auction for $1 million. The proceeds will go toward settling his $8.7 million tax debt, an $800,000 lawsuit settlement, and $145,000 in unpaid child support.

Currently, Jay-Z faces separate legal challenges, defending himself against allegations in a civil lawsuit related to an alleged incident at the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards.
