We covered a ton of other things 23 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 1: as well, I'll be doing a bit more reactionary things 24 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:14,399 Speaker 1: because there are some funny parts of the interview that 25 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:16,040 Speaker 1: I wanted to react to that I just thought were 26 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: funny at a person that was in the room. So okay, 27 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 1: let me just give some background context of this interview 28 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 1: Dame Dash at the Breakfast Club. So you guys know, 29 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 1: I come from TMZ. I was, you know, at TMZ 30 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 1: for some years. A part of what you do in 31 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 1: any newsroom as a journalist is you develop contacts. When 32 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,480 Speaker 1: you develop contacts, it's normally because these are people that 33 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 1: you have been working with, that you've been reporting on 34 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 1: a lot of times, you know you're not speaking to 35 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 1: them directly. So I have so much I have so 36 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 1: many strong relationships with publicists and managers and that whole 37 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 1: thing agents. But a lot of times, you know, there 38 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 1: are different influencers, celebrities who speak directly for themselves. Dame 39 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 1: Dash is one of those people. So I'd begin, you know, 40 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: having conversations via work with Dame back at TMZ, and 41 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: it was solely just, hey, this story is about to 42 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: be posted, you know, because it was a lot of 43 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 1: conversations around like money and his finances and things like that. 44 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 1: And like we see Dame Dash today and like you know, 45 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 1: there's all the boss jokes and all the things. But 46 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: I think everybody at some point looked at Dame Dash 47 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,639 Speaker 1: and you know, we all know the history. We all 48 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: know the story. 49 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 2: Right. 50 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 1: So for me coming into a newsroom where you know 51 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 1: it's not hip hop focused, but you know, being a 52 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,799 Speaker 1: black person in the newsroom that isn't There's a lot 53 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 1: of stories in a lot of times where you know 54 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: things are happening, and I would be the person to 55 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 1: reach out to anything in relation to hip hop because 56 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 1: I was the black girl in the newsroom, right, hate 57 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: that title, but it was the truth. It was the 58 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: honest truth. Like I mean, I was there, shout out 59 00:02:56,200 --> 00:03:00,519 Speaker 1: to Trent, who is TMZ hip hop right now?

At some point when he talked about being 99 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: in a previous conversation about acquiring BT the bankruptcy stuff, 100 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 1: I let him know, Hey, these people, you know that 101 00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,280 Speaker 1: we're being told that this stuff is not true. Any 102 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 1: time I've worked with him, it's always been very apparent. 103 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:04,720 Speaker 1: A lot of times I come to him like yo, 104 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 1: sometimes I can't always disclose who I spoke to, us, 105 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 1: I spoke to whoever. Here's the fact of the of 106 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 1: the matter. There's been times when Dame has pushed back 107 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,600 Speaker 1: on me and said things like he's told me things 108 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 1: weren't true, or he's pushed back on me. I remember 109 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: one time he said to me, I thought you had 110 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 1: no he said you're normally better than that. I thought 111 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 1: you'd go directly to the paperwork, the documents, because as 112 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:28,599 Speaker 1: much as I can, I don't want to rely on 113 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 1: nobody tell me nothing. I want to go and get 114 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,719 Speaker 1: it myself. So if I can get online and pull 115 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 1: Court Docks or you know, reach out to a network 116 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: directly or whatever I can do, I'm always going to 117 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 1: try and do that. And I had to, you know, 118 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,039 Speaker 1: in that moment when he tried to push back in 119 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: that way on something different, I said, oh, it's in 120 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 1: the court Docks, I can send it to you, send 121 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 1: some docs whatever. We talked through it. So that's been said. 122 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,159 Speaker 1: This is not my first time interacting with Dame, but 123 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,600 Speaker 1: this is my first time being in a room during 124 00:05:55,640 --> 00:06:00,080 Speaker 1: an interview. And I will say I wasn't ready. He 125 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: wasn't ready. I mean I knew, you know what I mean, 126 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: Like I know, Dame is entertainment like that, that's just 127 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 1: what it is. He knows what to do, how to 128 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:10,800 Speaker 1: do it, how to talk, how to know, you know, 129 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: how to get the people going. But I did think 130 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 1: that at some point the conversation would get constructive, and 131 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:18,919 Speaker 1: I think we did try and get like, you know, 132 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:23,039 Speaker 1: our few constructive, like solid real questions in But baby, 133 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 1: was I not ready? So let's get to what Dame 134 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 1: is throwing my way right now. As we're filming right now, 135 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 1: all of the reaction and the fallout from the Dame 136 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 1: Dash interview was happening. So I got people hitting me 137 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 1: from everywhere and different you know things that we're mentioned, 138 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 1: and you know, cause what people don't understand is that 139 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:46,280 Speaker 1: no branding, no business wants to have anything not correct 140 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 1: surrounding their brand and their business. When you're a brand 141 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 1: or you're a business, you're in the business of narrative. 142 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 1: So Dame Dash came on the Breakfast Club and he 143 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:56,480 Speaker 1: said these things. 144 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 2: I'm now the chairman of the Vault right now, and 145 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:03,600 Speaker 2: I also I have fifteen I got you.

Revolt Television is saying that 171 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 1: you being chairman. It's not true, and I think they're 172 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 1: going to make a statement now. Time went by. We're 173 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: still fully filming the Breakfast Club right, so time went 174 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 1: by cause I don't like the whole you're lying, which 175 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not tripping. People do this all the time, 176 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,680 Speaker 1: like this is when you want your narrative to go. 177 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 1: You want your narrative go. That's not my thing. But 178 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 1: what I do always want to provide is clarity, information 179 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: and valid sources, and that is what I do. So 180 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 1: this is what you're watching right now. So again I 181 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 1: let Dame Dash know, Hey, Revolt TV just said this 182 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,679 Speaker 1: to me. I'm letting you know. And I'm also I 183 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: also asked him, let me know if you would like 184 00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: to say something in response, so that when I post 185 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 1: television telling me that you are not chairman, I can 186 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: also say and here's Dame Dash's response to that, fair enough, 187 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 1: so they both can get picked up at the same time. 188 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,320 Speaker 1: Fair enough. Basically, he said that was BS. He said 189 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 1: it was BS to the BT situation. He said that 190 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 1: he had proof that he could show me. He said 191 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: he had to FaceTime me to show me the proof. 192 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 1: I told him, like, look, just send me whatever proof 193 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 1: you have. I'm willing to look at it and go 194 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 1: through it. And I always update with both sides of 195 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,680 Speaker 1: the stories. I don't have a dog in a fight here, 196 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 1: Like you know, my job is to just tell the story. 197 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:33,560 Speaker 1: And to do it in a way that is factual 198 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 1: and that provides some clarity. He was insisting that I 199 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 1: FaceTime him in order to clear that up, which at 200 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 1: the time too, we're still filming filming the show, so 201 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 1: I can't do. So I let him know what the 202 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 1: statement was going to be. So then it went from 203 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 1: him being the chairman to him saying to me, oh, 204 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,200 Speaker 1: I'm the chairman for the month, and he posted on 205 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: his Instagram. First he posted to Charlemage. He says, Charlemagne, 206 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 1: I would advise you not to make up phony sources 207 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 1: with our real names, saying that anything I said was 208 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 1: not true, or we will have a lead. Do not 209 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 1: try to compromise my reputation. I have prooved to support 210 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: everything I say that will stand up in any court. 211 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:10,679 Speaker 1: Then he posted my tweet, which again I text him 212 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,719 Speaker 1: long before I posted this tweet to let him know 213 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 1: that this is what was being said and give him 214 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:19,200 Speaker 1: opportunity to either respond to counter to anything. Dame Dash 215 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,080 Speaker 1: posts my tweet and he says, here goes the bullshit. 216 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,719 Speaker 1: I'm the chairman for the month. If I acquire I 217 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 1: would be official chairman. Please stop playing with the words. 218 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 1: Just take that l then he posted a Vibe article 219 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 1: and mind you remember in our interview we asked, because 220 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 1: he said things are not real unless deadline or you know, 221 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:43,719 Speaker 1: something like that announces it. And we act, would there 222 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: be anything announced because he was making all these announcements 223 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 1: on the Breakfast Club. Would there be anything announced in 224 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 1: any in deadline or anywhere else. And he's like, no, deadline, 225 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 1: didn't want to do the story right. So then this 226 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 1: Vibe article pops up and the Vibe article says, Dame 227 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 1: Dash name Revolt TV chairman, unveils my paid in full 228 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 1: docuseries trailer right, and the Vibe article continues. Damon Dash 229 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:06,840 Speaker 1: has been named Chairman of a Vault TV, a position 230 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: the entrepreneur and executive were helm for the duration of 231 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 1: one month. On Tuesday, September sixteenth, the fifty four year 232 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 1: old in the network announced the appointment, which is effective 233 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 1: immediately and will see Dash bringing content from his own platform, 234 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,079 Speaker 1: American New Network to Revolt TV. In addition to his 235 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:28,720 Speaker 1: duties as chairman, dashes partnership with revalt TV includes simulcasting 236 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: twenty five episodes of Dashes podcast Bosses Staate Losses, hosted 237 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,719 Speaker 1: by the mogul himself. Reval TV will also stream a 238 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 1: significant portion of dash His catalog on the platform, including 239 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: but not limited to his forthcoming docuseries My Paid in Full. 240 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 1: The project will be driven from Dash's personal perspective of 241 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: the Paid in Full era and spotlight various figures who 242 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 1: were present during the events that were depicted in the 243 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 1: two thousand and two film which Dash is spearheaded. And 244 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 1: then there are some quotes here about the Paid in 245 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 1: Full doc and all the stuff. So then Dame Dash 246 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: posts the loss Has Take Losses trailer, which he says 247 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 1: is with Revolt via the American New Network. Now, granted, 248 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,440 Speaker 1: all of this time has been by and Revolt still 249 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 1: has not said anything. Revolt has besides what they said 250 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 1: to me, which is that Dame Dash is not the chairman. 251 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 1: And I want to make it clear because Dame dashaid 252 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 1: I was twisting his words. Let's listen to the words 253 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:21,959 Speaker 1: that he said out of his mouth. Do you hear 254 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 1: the words that are coming out of my mouth? I 255 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 1: heard them. Let's take a listen, you understand them. 256 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 2: I wanted y'all to bomb on me because I knew 257 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 2: all these announcements were coming. Now, anybody else makes an announcements, 258 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 2: they're great. But if Dame dashah, it's a little thing. 259 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 2: Oh you're not the chairman like I am. I'm about 260 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 2: to buy you. Understand what I'm saying. I don't play. 261 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 2: I've been trying to buy a Revolt for two years. 262 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 2: I tried to buy Beet. I just play a different game. 263 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 2: See the game I play. You don't make money every 264 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,719 Speaker 2: day you get licks. It takes ten years to make 265 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 2: a company and sell it. You have to have even die. 266 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 2: You sold by a by a multiple. 267 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 1: And then as things progress, Dame changed what he said 268 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 1: in the Breakfast Club interview in text and said for 269 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 1: a month, as far as I know, And when I 270 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 1: talked to Revolt, I said chairman at all at any 271 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:08,040 Speaker 1: point they said no. They doubled down no, the one month, 272 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:11,960 Speaker 1: the anything no, And at first the conversation was he's chairman, 273 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 1: and then when the Vibe article dropped, he leaned into 274 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 1: for a month now. Granted, I don't know if maybe 275 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:23,319 Speaker 1: you know there was some sort of like here's what 276 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 1: they were trying to make happen or whatever. But my source, 277 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 1: who is leading narrative for a Revolt television it says 278 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: it's not happening. Not only do they say it's not happening, 279 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 1: they also say it's not even happening for a month. 280 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: That is, there's nothing locked in at this moment. At 281 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:48,199 Speaker 1: this point, I am dumbfounded with like why we are 282 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 1: even here, Like what is happening? I'm very confused. I 283 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 1: am extremely confused. And I think one of my biggest 284 00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 1: things too is just if you were if you are 285 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 1: looking to do business and Dame does business, like you know, 286 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 1: that's his thing. Another one of my things too is 287 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,320 Speaker 1: is like you know, I think with the whole bankruptcy thing, 288 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 1: and when Dame said we don't understand bankruptcy because we 289 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 1: don't file for it, I don't think that that's a 290 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 1: black people thing. I think there is you know, financial 291 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: like literacy needed in our community. I know that I 292 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 1: used to work for a credit bank, but I think 293 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 1: people in general, unless you've done a certain amount of business, 294 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 1: or you've been in a certain amount of debt, not 295 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 1: even from business, just from life, you don't understand what 296 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 1: a bankruptcy is and how it works. But most everyday 297 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 1: people do not. So right now you're in the interview 298 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 1: and you're speaking on what you have, what you don't have, 299 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 1: and you freshly just told a judge I only got 300 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 1: a little over four thousand dollars to my name. I 301 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: can't afford to pay this debt. I wouldn't be no 302 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 1: interview talking about nothing, not a thing. That'd be like 303 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 1: you broke, whoop you do? You ain't got no money, Dame. 304 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 1: If I was damed Ash, you couldn't pay me to 305 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 1: get on a platform about my finances right now, because 306 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 1: if you know, everything clears through this bankruptcy, which is 307 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: the goal. I mean, he does make out at least 308 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 1: back at you know, in the clear where he can, 309 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: like he talked about in the Breakfast Club interview, he 310 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: can then go on to do whatever it is he 311 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 1: plans to do, and he's doing it without all of 312 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 1: this debt that has come on his back. I get that, 313 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 1: but it's not smart to sit and talk about what 314 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 1: you have while telling a judge in a court document 315 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 1: that you don't have it. Why would you not think 316 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 1: that somebody would try and use that against you, like 317 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 1: the attorney who is that they're pushing back y'all that 318 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 1: the morning that Dame Dash came to the Breakfast Club, 319 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:49,160 Speaker 1: I received a document that was filed by Chris Brown, 320 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: just about them pushing back on the bankruptcy filing because 321 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:56,440 Speaker 1: they don't believe that Dame Dash is telling the truth 322 00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 1: in the filing for several different reasons. They bring up 323 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 1: dresses that they say, you know, are fraudulent, that are 324 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 1: listed in his bankruptcy filing. They bring up you know, 325 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 1: you know, what he says he has, and they believe 326 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 1: that he has more. I would just be being so careful. 327 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 1: And again this is just me explaining my side of 328 00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 1: things at this point because Dame trying to take me 329 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: to the cleaners as a liar and all these things. 330 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 1: But I will say Dame Dash knows because and that's 331 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 1: why I explained what my working relationship is. Anytime I'm 332 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 1: working on a story and I'm working with these sources 333 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 1: and I'm, you know, doing other things, whether I can 334 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 1: say someone's name on record or not, I go about 335 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: the process the same way. I'm reaching out to all 336 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 1: parties involved all the time, talking to them, trying to understand, 337 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 1: trying to get context, trying to understand what the color 338 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 1: of the situation is, so that as I'm providing information, 339 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 1: I'm providing it in a way that tells the whole story, 340 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 1: because I think that's important, especially when I would never 341 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 1: want to be the reason that Dane Dash can't go 342 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 1: do a business deal, if that's what he's really I 343 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 1: would never want to be. I don't care how much 344 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,720 Speaker 1: you laugh, you joked, you whatever. Nobody feels good being 345 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 1: the reason why somebody can't go and do something that 346 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 1: they're set out to do that will help feed their family. Ever. So, 347 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 1: I never want to be that person. But one thing 348 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,359 Speaker 1: I'm not is a liar. And it's very convenient that 349 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:19,439 Speaker 1: I'm a liar right now.
