Dame Dash Prepares "Rocafella 2 " Label

After the bitter break-up of Rocafella Records in 2004, Dame Dash has been struggling to find his own musical identity again. "I was one of the pillars of that company" says Dash. "Me and Biggs built that shit and ya man had to go and do what he did, i wont go into details [because] you should already know. It hurt, but im gonna hit the reset button on this shit." Dash, in obvious reference to one time partner Jay-Z, speaks of what many consider to be the strong arming of the label away from Dash.

As of today the sole controller of the venerable label is Mr. Carter with Dash and Kareem "Biggs" Burke never being able to be part of it again, however Dash is confident in what he believes will be the rebirth of what he made over a decade ago. "Me and Biggs have been in discussion about doing another label, another Roc style label with Juelz and Jimmy at the forefront." "Them two are from the same hood im from with the same struggle and can make hits easy."

With Jim Jones, a proven hit maker with his smashes like "Summer in Miami" and the 2006 banger "We Fly High," and Juelz Santana whos highly anticipated duo album with Lil Wayne "I Cant Feel My Face" due out early next year, Dash is obviously very confident about his new venture with the former Dipset members and goes on to elaborate on what he thinks will be the rebirth of what he loved doing. "Im telling you, its gonna Be Rocafella 2, The Roc 2.0! Me and Jimmy and Juelz. Its gonna feel like '98 again I promise you that.
