Drake Debuts #1 On Billboard

While it didn’t surpass the 700k that was expected, Take Care is still sitting high at the #1 spot on Billboard with 631k sold in it’s first week (a nice little boost from Thank me Later‘s debut at 447k). With a hand-written congratulations note from Hov, and numbers/record sales “not mattering” to Lil Wayne (riiiight), I don’t think Drake is sitting in any dark corner right now.

In other news, Donald Glover’s rapping alter ego took the 11th spot with Camp selling 53k. Nice!

  1. I wish those numbers were swapped! Camp > Take Care

  2. camp was wack as fuck. smh, not even music lmao

  3. So Hov gives Drake a dope verse on TML and gives Cole some mediocre verse for Sideline Story. He sends Drake a handwritten note to say congrats and he never mentions anything about Cole having a #1 album? Sure, that all makes a lot of sense to me… smh

  4. wayne said it clearly.. niggas is rich as shit, alblum sales isnt what they expect. Just Enjoy This Shit. alblum even leaked days before and people who liked it bought it.. Take Care

  5. @Jay Cole Hov would rather have Drake as a signee. and if that was the case, MY GOD!

  6. Hov knows that Drake is a bag full of money and he hopes he’d be able to sign him anytime in the future. Cole? Not that much.

  7. First of all, the verse on Mr Nice Watch was genius. Second of all, he congratulated J. Cole on his number 1 spot too, i saw the interview on this site.

  8. ^^ He didn’t give Cole props, he gave HIMSELF props for Cole going #1. He used the term “artist development” or some shit like that. It was in no way a congrats to Cole.

  9. Take Care is the best album to release in the last couple of years. The only dudes hating on it are the same dudes who still wear shirts 3 sizes too large, du rags, pelle pelle jackets, big ass baggy jeans, fitteds too large for their head, and dudes 28+. The other kind that hate on it are the dudes who get NO PUSSY, have no kind of game, play video games 2-3 hours a day, have never smashed a bad chick, and the dudes who still live at home. Yup!

  10. Well it was kind of a props to cole and kind of classic jay-z arrogance so we’re both right.

    “J. Cole’s success is testament to amazing artist development and Cole’s hard work. I want to congratulate him on a #1 album and more importantly a great body of work.”

  11. Did Wayne really just say numbers don’t matter? He sold out hard so he can make some extra $$$. That’s the only reason he’s “rich as shit” smh

  12. Wayne been sold out, but @AirMax

    So because someone plays video games, they get no cut? Riiiight.

  13. take care blew my fuckin mind. i thought it was gonna suck & have a bunch 0f pop songs on it. i cant name 1 pop song on the album & that nigga drake kept it real the entire album. best album i heard since my beautiful dark twisted fantasy. you niggas stop bringing up jacole,big sean & wale,wiz khalifa in the same breath as drake. neither one of them will ever make a album thats even close to being as good as take care or will ever sell half of what drake sold. will 2 plat albums & a classic album under his belt drake has seperated himself for the pack & is now ready to start sparring with the legends in the game.

  14. ^

    only artist fucking with drake musically rite now is kid cudi.maybe not sales wise but cudi still makes better music than drake but i agree medium sean,wally,jasmine cole,wizard cauliflower names shouldnt be in the same breath as drake.

  15. I did not think the album was a good listen. Was it a strong piece of work? Yeah. But to me is was pretty boring and too down-beat. I don’t need 50 minutes of Marvin’s Room.

  16. Take Care was dope. We dont need every rapper to be on some Beanie Sigel shit so what Drake’s rapping about is cool with me. The only thing I don’t fuck with is him “catchin bodies”. Cut that shit out please.

  17. That nigga drake said he was gonna take the throne not only did the lil jewish motherfucker take it he sabotaged that hoe.

  18. 90 likes? I don’t know how it’s possible that this talentless softass gets 90 likes. He is not even a mucician. 2dbz users-what happened with ya’ll? damn.

  19. ^
    he got jewish roots that’s why the medias blowing him up

  20. Ignorant.^

  21. Shout out to Drake. He delivered a phenomenal album with Take Care. Drizzy is on top of the game and you all wish you were in his position even if you dont want to admit it. Tell the haters to Take Care. OVOXO

  22. ^ exactly

  23. Album was meh atleast. Half of it was good and half of it was slow and unable to listen to. Imo I wouldn’t buy the album but good for Drake getting #1

  24. Congrats! One of the best albums all year. Cole’s was great as well, I just love how Cole has to come up in 99.99% of Drake discussions…

  25. Congrats to Drake & Childish Gambino both had very great albums in my opinion I supported and went to buy both very proud supporter for their hard work!

  26. I’M a hipster so i dont like anything

  27. “numbers/record sales “not mattering” to Lil Wayne (riiiight)”

    Yeah, Wayne only sold 964k in his first week. He only had the highest 1st week rap sales of the year with the next closest record less that 300k than his.

    I’m sure he really cares about other peoples numbers.

  28. If jay z signed Drake,,Drake would Never have had such great success as Drake is now,,,Jay z does not put fourth his artists,,from roc a fella to all his roc nation signees,,j cole literally did everything on his own with no help from jay,,,,drake and wayne been riding and rapping together..wayne has Himself Nicki minaj and drake,,who does jay have beside himself..yeezy!!no kanye did everything on his own as well,,jay did not believe in kanyes rapping skills, so kanye branched off on his own to make college drop out….jay z is terrible at managing talent, j cole could have more success if his label promoted him better on the radio…

  29. If jay z signed Drake,,Drake would Never have had such great success as Drake is now,,,Jay z does not put fourth his artists,,from roc a fella to all his roc nation signees,,j cole literally did everything on his own with no help from jay,,,,drake and wayne been riding and rapping together..wayne has Himself Nicki minaj and drake,,who does jay have beside himself..yeezy!!no kanye did everything on his own as well,,jay did not believe in kanyes rapping skills, so kanye branched off on his own to make college drop out….jay z is terrible at managing talent, j cole could have more success if his label promoted him better on the radio…,,

  30. drake has been his own artist from day one.. you think wayne is responsible for his public image, you think a new orleans, lean drinking blood is responsible for a drake character, really?

    the fact is drake DOESNT need weezy, wayne and khaled both grabbed him for their biggest singles this year “she will” and “im on one”

    you cole stanning niggas need to give in..

    hes a better rapper..
    and makes better music in general..

    a cole character is just needed to fulfill a next generation nas slot.

    drake obviously is shaping up to be the next jay..

    and deep down, we all know..

    Jay in every aspect > Nas

    men lie, women lie, numbers don’t

  31. Yeh, numbers don’t lie,,wayne sold more than anybody the past few years,,,and wayne is responsible for drake and nickis career…is it any coincidence that young money is as successful as it is,,,wayne was the most poppin nigga, and drake rolled with the most poppin nigga,,yherefore gave drake much notoriety, I’m just saying drake is a perfect fit for young money, and jay z would not be able to help drakes career cuz jay z is terrible at benefitting his artists…,,wayne been hot since 2008, drake since 2009, wayne sold 1,000,000 with the carter 3 and the carter 4,,,meaning he’s the hottest nigga and is successful at promoting his artists..

  32. @riko, Drake would have been better off with the Roc dude. People look at Drake a little sideways cause of his affiliation with Wayne because Drake has a more adult sound, Wayne makes music for kids. You saying Jay aint really put people on correctly is crazy cause the list of successful rappers and singers that he put on off the Roc and people he put on through Def Jam is a long list of platinum artists and just so you know Jay had ALOT to do with Kanyes early success.

  33. HOW IS IT WAYNE AND DRAKE ALBUM HAD NO BUZZ AROUND IT AT ALL AND THEY STILL GETTING GUD RECORDS SALES BIRDMAN BUYIN THEY RECORDS I DONT CARE WAT MFZ SAY

  34. i saw birdman in best buy when i was going to buy some old outkast albums

  35. see, marty knows what I’m talking about.. rick ross, young jeezy, RIHANNA, NE-YO.. all signed within jay’s presidency.

    come on..

    cole just didn’t have “IT”, the hype was bullshit.. I am openly a drake fan, and I even bought the cole album..

    we were lied to my friend.. jay-z just happened to realize in time, and decided not to fuck with him like that..

  36. FACT! drakes lead singles have no features..

    its wayne that needs drake my friend.. check the credits

    “single” produced by 40

    “money to blow” was a leaked drake track track from ’08

    “she will” drake written and performed hook…

    “im on one” written by drake produced by t-minus and 40

    the guy had number 1′s from a fuckin mixtape..

    drake is keeping lil wayne afloat I promise you.. they use HIM, not the other way around.

  37. Was this something peoples didn’t expect. Fucking punks.

  38. yes, drake is holding wayne up. but lets not act like drake didnt already have a shot with replacement girl and trey songz on the hook. drake blew up BECAUSE he rode with wayne at the time when wayne sold a milli first week. so lets not give drake ALL the credit. it was mostly the wayne co-sign. MOSTLY

    second, jay does push his artists, wtf are you talking about, look at kanye. hes fucking KANYE. he pushed bleek HARD eventho bleek was boring as hell with no commercial appeal. same with beanie when he was in and out of the bing. just bcuz cole is hella boring with almost no commercial appeal(hint his singles) doesnt mean jay is trying to sabotage his career. c’mon, lets be real.

    even j cole fans admit that cole world wasnt all thatand could have been better. and thats AFTER jay pushed the album back farther than tyra banks hairline(hov). so could you imagine how terrible the album would have sounded if it was release when the stans were demanding it? cole is not a star. or atleast not yet. hint jay saying “artist development.”
    muhfuckas just get too emotional over their fav rappers.

  39. I just want to thank my entire fan base… all the divas out there who bought my album. My fans are mostly female or gay men. The gay scene seems to be embracing my music and I feel a very strong connection with the gay community. You see, Toronto has a large gay population which I grew up with all my life. I felt as though I have become one with them.

    Next year I’m gonna hit you with some more hot music for you to play in your hair and nail salons, but until then I am going to kick back with Weezy and some wine spritzers and just take in all my success.

    Anyways… Mwaaaaaa! OVO XOXOXOXOXOXOXO (that’s hugs n kisses y’all). Thanks for all your support!

    Take Care,

    Drizzler

  40. @AirMax90, you are retarded

  41. @AirMax90

    Did those kids bully you in high school? Awwwwww.

  42. LMAO @ Drizzler. Cum drizzler.

  43. I find it funny how someone always brings up J. Cole in a Drake post or brings up Drake in a J. Cole post. Stop comparing the two, please.

    One has the ability to make very smooth sounding hits, while the other can make very relatable music. The only thing that’s the same about them is that they sing and are both light-skinned.

  44. @ pauly

    bcuz they both pop’d up on the scene round the same time and have the POTENTIAL to EVENTUALLY take the crown SOME DAY.

    p.s. i am insinuating that neither one are even close to taking that crown any time soon. not with jay-z still spitting triple entendres, nas still spitting period, andre 3k STILL has a debut to drop, kanye hasnt NOT dropped a classic yet, and em possibly returning to form.

  45. Take Care is NOT the best album to come out this year, happy for Drake it went number 1, but come on. And for the idiot who said Drake is a better “rapper” than Cole you need serious help. Section 80 still shits on Take Care….

  46. @seanSky..

    you need help my friend..

    YOU NIGGAS NEED TO BE HONEST WITH YOURSELVES.. IF DRAKE WAS FROM THE HOOD YOU’D BE ALLLLLLLLLLL OVER HIS NUTS..

    COLE JUST HAPPENS TO BE.. SO YOU DICK RIDE HIM ALL DAY LONG.

    COLE AS A RAPPER CANNOT FUCK WITH DRAKE..

    AND THAT FUCKING COLE WORLD SHIT IS PROOF!

    section 80 is the best album to come out this year though, so your not completely gone.

    kendrick lamar should be sitting in that god like position that you all try to slide cole into.. he’s easily the superior lyricist..

  47. also, I don’t know why you needed to insult me personally..

    weak minded child! argue if you’re going to argue, keep that “idiot” shit to yourself.

    let your points(or ignorance) speak for you.

  48. Kendrick > All

  49. ^word

  50. CAMP > TAKE CARE
    Two very good albums.Childish Gambino gives you flow,storytelling,hip hop,rock and electronica.The epilogue at the end of THAT POWER alone is worth the price.It’s Donald Glover’s COLLEGE DROPOUT or SO FAR GONE

  51. @pauly D. your are tidiculously retarted. COLE CANNOT FUCKING SING. all cole stans should know this by know and should stop sliding him into a godlike spot. cole is mediocre average. hes corny, and boring.

  52. Wow, Im surprised half of the post is not anti Drake hate but niggas are actually having a discussion.

    anyway, In my opinion, although Wayne really put Drake on and Drake would not be where he is if not for Wayne, you have to admit that Wayne needs Drake more than Drake needs Wayne. Drake is the Young Money cash cow, the repair man. They throw him everywhere cuz they know He makes everyone on that team better

    There is a reason why The Weeknd, is being held closely around Drake and what hes trying to built and you never seen him around YM projects. I think one of these days Drake will completely be doing his own thing, because he has the appeal to be successful on his own right now.

    N I also have a feeling Drake is trying to sign Kendrick Lamar to his imprint. So if you have a crew with Drake, The Weeknd, and Kendrick Lamar with 40, and T Minus on the boards? Watch out, thats gonna be a strong mix.

    J.Cole, Wale, Drake, Kendrick Lamar, Yelawolf, Big K.R.I.T., the game is really in good hands for the future

  53. @XI yeah, nigga. If Drake is doing songs about catching bodies (headlines) & having an addiction to lean (trust issues) then I do think a new orleans, lean drinking blood is responsible for a Drake character… Really,
    BTW, could you get off Drake’s ballsack for 2 minutes please?

  54. Cole World would’ve sold more if Gay-Z was any good with artist development. Yeah Rick Ross, Ne-Yo, & Rihanna all signed to Def Jam while Jay was president, but Ross was also signed to Slip-N-Slide records then left Def Jam after this 3rd album & Ne-Yo was already a successful songwriter before he even released his debut album.
    Also, let’s not forget that LL Cool J came out & said Jay was a horrible boss at Def Jam.

    What about all the other def jam signees from 2005-2008? What about all the other Roc-a-Fella Records members NOT named Kanye West?

  55. kendrick lamar should be sitting in that god like position that you all try to slide cole into.. he’s easily the superior lyricist..

    XI said this on November 24th, 2011 at 5:33 pm

    ^ fall the fuck back. neither one are worthy of the “god like position.” wtf. just bcuz kendrick is that new nice nigga, does not mean the nigga is anywhere near god-like. section 80 is NOT illmatic. the fuck.

  56. @drillz

    First of all, I never said that he was a GOOD singer. And, if we’re talking about Cole, let’s talk about Drake. Have you ever BEEN at a Drake concert? Do you REALIZE how TERRIBLE his singing live is? And how is dude corny? Last times I checked, songs like Lost Ones, God’s Gift and Daddy’s Little Girl AREN’T corny…

    Why can’t people like you and XL stop being STANS and appreciate what both Drake AND Cole are bringing into Hip Hop? Hip Hop fans these days are fackin’ ridiculous…

  57. @ zilla,

    you acting like everybody that makes music is or can be a kanye. not real. and ross was unknown outside of miami till jay brought him to def jam and STILL is on def jam, its MMG that is signed to warner bros. plus jay brought over jeezy who can possibly deliver a 3rd classic project.

    your bias opinion is obvious. you really expected bleek or tru life to be a kanye west? really? knock it off.

    * the game will be a B+ at best if THIS is all it has to offer.

  58. @ pauly D. lol? you always talking shit about drake and now your crying why people can’t apprciate both? coles singing on songs are terrible, you should make note of that instead of stanning cole. he CANT SING, period. your not the only cole stan that has said cole can sing. i find it ridiculous acually. and drake can sing, if he’s terrible he would not be as successful. lost ones is corny, people hyped it so much and said “its the best song of all time” wtf, all cole songs are low quality, he should stop producing and get his own engineer/producer to work with him full time. i was a cole fan before drake and the fame thing has gotten to him, he thinks he’s the shit and thinks he kanye? his fans think he’s the new nas which i found to be ridiculous. i used to bump to this nigga alot till cole world dropped, then the fans started to get annoying with the comparisions, expectations, then cole put mixtape songs on an album. i want to see this nigga win but he need to find his own lane and rethink where he’s going with his music. like really.

  59. @the realest, yes we all know illmatic was amazing. but kendrick lamar is something else, we are in 2011, hip hop is not in the 90′s anymore, its evolving. don’t be one of those dick bakcpackers that think 90′s were amaazing. fuck that, what about the 80s? classic hip hop, not gun slinigng, drug dealing content of hip hop. the only good thing tht came about from hiph op in the 90′s were the disses, and the political backlashing by rappers.

  60. “you always talking shit about drake”

    Proof or take your L.

    “coles singing on songs are terrible, you should make note of that instead of stanning cole. he CANT SING, period. your not the only cole stan that has said cole can sing. i find it ridiculous acually. and drake can sing, if he’s terrible he would not be as successful.”

    By your logic, T-Pain can SING because he’s been successful as hell. I’m not saying that Drake is THAT bad at singing, but both he and Cole are mediocre at it. (Even though Cole’s singing adds more of an emotional appeal to a song…)

    “lost ones is corny”

    Wait, doesn’t corny mean that something is tired or an overdone idea? And isn’t that song about abortion, a subject that isn’t prevalent at ALL in modern day Mainstream?

    Yeah, go ahead and take your second L of the day.

  61. all yall misson the mark..Drake is winning because his sound is universal..J Cole is doin alright because he makes lackluster music..point blank period..as far as the 90′s being abt nothing but disses..never ever say that in public..they will LAUGH AT U..the 90′s is the decade with the most advancement in HipHOp ever..3/4 ths of the greats came from that era and they still winning…the new generation is cool but performance wise are boring and they missin a connect with the people…the 90′s killed a generation..there were no more 80′s rappers left after the next gen took over..do your history..the millineum rappers are strugglin to get a foot in the door still..they should of been on top by now..BIGGIE,Jay,Nas,Pac,Snoop,WuTang,Outkast,Goodie Mob,Scarface..the list goes on of credible 90′s rappers..with catalogues of good music..u comparin niggas with ten mixtapes..no comparison…lame

  62. Wayne might have gave drake fame. but fame didn’t make him a great artist. in his comeback season, room for improvement, and so far gone days he didn’t have the fame but still made great music. Sometimes fame hurts an artist because a lot of people are retarded and can’t see the realness in someones music. they say its wack because its slow and doesn’t have a lex luger beat and say some retarded shit because that’s what people consider main stream. Drake combined main stream music and kept it real with lyrics that had meaning in his life. for example healines and he still put completely non-mainstream songs on the album that were good…that real people can relate too. “real niggas say his lyrics do shit for them”

  63. @pauly D. pauly u actully do talk shit about drake from what i see on c sections lol.

  64. ^^^^
    No. I’ve said that the video and concept of Drake trying to act “gangsta” is corny. I’ve said that Make Me Proud and Crew Love were lackluster songs. But I’ve never hated on Drake. I’m unbiased, unlike these Drake stans on here that can even put together a decent argument.

  65. *can’t.

  66. co-sign life according to dutch first off

    @ drillz

    the 90s was the golden era. rap’s peak. it graduated from the PBS specials from slick rick and KRS-one to the realism of whats REALLY going on the inner-cities. i know alot of yall “real hiphop fans” like to look back to the 80s as “real hiphop” bcuz its the safe bet to claim the oldest as the best, but c’mon, lets be real, “childrens stories” by slick rick is no where near “csn i live”. c’mon man. albums like illmatic/RD/R2D/life after death/no way out all brought cinematic stories to hiphop. and thats just the lyrics. not even getting into the production and music of things. the BEST you can bring up in comparison is section 80. which is no comparison with the few albums i named. rap evolved from 80s to 90s. that shit has regressed from 90s to now.
    _____________________________________________________________________

    Life Accordin’ To Dutch said this on November 25th, 2011 at 4:13 pm

    ^ that says it all right there.

  67. can i live*

  68. @marty mcfly. Jay z does NOT push his artists to superstardom success,name one successful artists that jay put out???not kanye, cuz kanye did it on his own…do ur homework peoples other than producing for jay z, kanye west did everything on his own..

  69. How did Kanye do it on his own when he got fame from doing beats on the Roc and Jay was on his first album twice? Was Beanie Sigel a successful rapper before the Roc? What about everyone on State Prop? What about Dipset as a group? Cause Cams biggest solo album had Jayz on it while they were running around with the Roc. Ross, Jeezy, Rihanna, and even Fab way back in the Dj Clue days were all cosigned by Jay before they were poppin. I mean he would actually call into their meetings to vouch for them. Dmx and Murder Inc were also in many ways connected to Jay in the beginning of there careers because Jay did several songs with them before their debut album. And for the last time you cant blame Jay for Coles level of success because Jay didnt have to do shit for him at all. How much more pushing can you do for someone after he put him on BP3 and gave him a record deal in the first place. So thats more then one artist my friend and some of them are directly connected to Jayz especially Kanye cause without the Roc there would be no Kanye. Dame WAS NOT THE BOSS OF THE ROC, HE HAD TO TAKE ORDERS AND ANSWER TO JAYZ.

  70. “Jay was on his first album twice”

    ….Really? Jay was on College Dropout…twice? Stans these days…

  71. Drake won that round cole stans. To be honest i havent listened to sideline story by Cole because i firmly believe he bodied himself with that workout Pos single. I saw that as a pandering to the highest. Also i agree that his production is mediocre at best and i think he needs to chill on that trying so hard to be a rapper/producer like his idol. Just stick to the raps get a small faction of go to producers ie Drake (40, boi wonder, hitboy) jay z (ye and just blaze) Rozay ( the inkredibles, J.U.S.T.C.E League) etc. Being the best rapper has never meant anything making the best music with cohesive albums has though.

  72. Everybody STFU already shit I love J. Cole, Big Sean, Drake all of them it doesnt matter can we just be happy they are making some good music to ride to and besides I don’t see any of you guys rapping so just shut up if you hate then damn

  73. @Paula, YES Jayz was on College Dropout TWICE but I know you probably havent heard that album since you dont even recognize the voice of Biggie on shit and you probably listen to Pink and Diggy and Em all day. Not only was Jayz on that album on two songs but Kanye put out the ALBUM ON ROCAFELLA RECORDS !!! SO YES DUMBASS, JAYZ HAS ALOT TO DO WITH KANYE. Plus WTT is still poppin right now as I talk to you fool. Smh

  74. “Dame WAS NOT THE BOSS OF THE ROC, HE HAD TO TAKE ORDERS AND ANSWER TO JAYZ.”

    ^ fall the fuck back. now REALLY stan’d after that one.

    “Dmx and Murder Inc were also in many ways connected to Jay in the beginning of there careers because Jay did several songs with them before their debut album”

    ^ hella reaching. DAME was the one dropping gems. jay probley told them niggaz they wouldnt last long like he did game. and im a hov fan.

    “What about Dipset as a group? Cause Cams biggest solo album had Jayz on it while they were running around with the Roc.”

    ^ now how you gon give jay-z credit for what dame did? smh. damn you really show’d your ass on this one.

    “and you probably listen to Pink and Diggy and Em all day.”

    ^ and then the fact that he has to bring up Pink as an insult validates how much of a nerd you are. that along with all the stanning you just did

  75. I bring up those things because there true. Jay said once in a interview that the bottom line is he had the final decision about everything that had to do with the Roc and thats because he was the driving force behind it. If there was no Jayz there would be no Rocafella and thats just a fact. As for DMX and Murder Inc? Go back and listen to early Dj Clue mixtapes before they had albums and careers. Jay did songs with them at a time when HKL2 was selling like crazy so who was really helping who? As For Cam and Dipset? You give Dame so much credit but Dame is a business man, he does not make music. Hip hop fans listen to music not what dame has to say in meetings about record deals so Jay had alot to do with the success of Dipset because the money they used to promote their brand did not come from Epic records or Dame Dash, It came from JAYZ who allowed Cam to use 5 million dollars of Rocafella money to build his brand as a solo artist and the Dipset brand and thats before Jim went to Koch and Juelz went to Def Jam ( Jay was president there as well when that happened ). If you aint gonna give credit where its due then go ahead and give Dame all the credit you want but Dame did not make the music that made the Roc successful.

  76. huh? first you say dame was the business man, but then say jayz gave cam 5 million to promote themselves. huh? that sounds like the job of the “business man” not the “music man”. and just cuz jayz did a song(s) with niggaz does NOT mean he co-signed on put them on. c’mon now, fall back.

  77. Again you idiot. Cam got a biggest level of success off ROCAFELLA RECORDS. Jayz carried that flag, people didnt say “Oh shit Cam gonna do something with Dame now” They were excited about the possibility of Jay and Cam doing something. Dame couldnt put them on if Jay would have said NO ITS NOT GOING DOWN HERE. That whole Cam issue is what made Jay distance himself from Dame BUT he didnt just stop Cam from putting out his solo album, a Dipset album and Juelz first album, in fact he was in the same building they recorded in. Just Blaze and Kanye did a bunch of songs with Dipset and they also were ubder the Roc umbrella. Dame only had rank as being apart of the Roc, It was Jay with the MONEY, INFLUENCE AND MUSIC TO BACK UP THE BUSINESS and YES if he did a song with niggas he did cosign them because he just would not have done the song if he wasnt fucking with them. If you are an employee you cant just hire people without running it by the boss. Jay has said in the past that he was not just a worker at the Roc, he was the BOSS.

  78. again you idiot, fall back. dame did not work for jay, dame was not an employee, all THREE were equal partners. you can check every album released from rocafella and see dame AND BIGGS names next to executive producer. biggs being the silent partner/muscle, dame being the BUSINESS MAN, and jay being the rapper/main artist. simple as that. all THREE put their money together and started up the company bcuz they all hustled. NOT JUST JAY-Z YOU STAN! if jay was that much of a genius/boss/god/w.e. he wouldnt have needed dame to conduct ALL the business affairs. all jay did was once he got enough money to afford some jews to handle his business affairs, he started smelling himself then snaked dame out the company. not complicated. and i repeat, this is coming from a jay fan. but i know street niggaz too well. you obviously dont.

    yes, jayz is a great rapper, yes he did put some ppl on, as ALL ppl do when they climb higher, thats how you keep revenue coming in dummy, but what your doing is sucking jayz dick dry with all these wildass accusations like jayz is responsible for every and any successful artist. fall the fuck back. fall the fuck back.

  79. NO they were NOT EQUAL, because that would mean they do what Jay was doing so that is not the case because Jay was the VOICE of Rocafella. No they did NOT bring as much money to the table as Jay, they mite have had as much money in 95 but Jay was spending his to uphold the label. Jay could have had other people doing his business, yes Dame SET UP MEETINGS WITH OTHER LABELS IN THE BEGINNING THAT DAME HIMSELF DID NOT MAKE SUCCESSFUL BUT JAY HANDLED THE BIGGEST VENTURES HIMSELF AND THEN LET DAME LOOK AFTER THEM WHILE HE RECORDED. DAME DID NOT CONDUCT ALL OF HIS BUSINESS AFFAIRS BECAUSE ONLY A FEW OF THEM ACTUALLY WENT THROUGH. No all rappers do not put other rappers on and im not just defending Jay, what im doing is calling you on your bullshit. Jay has a book and several interviews speaking on the matters of Rocafella and further more it would not make sense for a character such as Jayz to be equal with Dame and Biggs because JAY was the cash cow stupid and you know Jay would not play himself just to be friends with Dame and Biggs. If Dame did not work for Jayz then who was he working for? Dame was a filter between the Roc and Def Jam and Bad Boy and thats what he knew his postion was. Dame mentioned Rocafella all the time, who do you think he was referring too? Yeah several artists but the main one being Jayz so who was working for who? Jay did the raps and set the trends and put his face out there for the promo so that means him, Dame and Biggs were NOT EQUAL.

  80. And know you dont know street niggaz well dummy because if you did you would know if a hustla buys the work, prepares the work( cooks, measures, chops, and bags up ) and flips the work and puts on other hustlas that does not make him equal to the people that hustle under him at various dope spots . HELLO

  81. if their not equal, then explain the executive producer credits they got on EVERY rocafella album. bullshit called.

    all jay was was the artist. thats all it was. yes, he was the cash cow. but THAT WAS THE PLAN! when they started in 95 were there any other artists? no. it was simply jay, the artist. c’mon, be real, you expect a 26 yr old high school dropout from the projects to know how to conduct and run a music label? lol c’mon now, you living in a fantasy. straight fantasy. HELLO

  82. Jay had already started rapping and jumping on records BEFORE he met and worked with Dame. When Dame came along Jay was coming back from a tour with Big Daddy Kane and recording overseas with Jaz- O. So Dame and Biggs and Jay DID NOT PUT A PLAN TOGETHER IN THE BEGINNING BECAUSE JAY WAS ALREADY MOVING. Jays original plan was to do it on his own cause he already knew the labels would not understand his content ( being that it was real life ). Album credits does not mean that the people making phones calls and meetings are doing equal work as the artist who is making the songs and performing them at shows. And yes I do believe that a person of his background of understanding how the streets and business works, I do believe he could have handled his business with or without Dame because Dame and Biggs were not the only players involved. Jay also had a staff and he had an office where he worked so yes I do believe he had the business sense to be successful. After all the nigga didnt even write his fucking lyrics because he was huslting and trying to write lyrics while constantly being on the move is hard enough.

  83. I’m still stuck up on the fact that this dude marty seems to think that JAY WAS ON COLLEGE DROPOUT TWO TIMES. Now, I’ve got the CD with me and…..wait….yup, you are WRONG. Unless Jay has some hidden verse in Breathe In/Out.

    Stans these days are RIDICULOUS.

  84. Jay has commentary on the final track, last call i think? So technically yes he is on there twice. And pauly youve gotten your ass laughed out of plenty debates on this site so Id think twice before calling anyone a ridiculous stan.

  85. btw that comment in no way supports the shit mcfly is saying. I simply commented on the last comment on the page.

  86. “After all the nigga didnt even write his fucking lyrics because he was huslting and trying to write lyrics while constantly being on the move is hard enough.”

    ^ woah! fall the fuck back. memorizing lyrics is not hard. i use to do that shit in the 3rd grade, for one. and so your saying bcuz he can memorize lyrics while hustling that means he knows how to operate a music label? hmm. okay.

    “Dame and Biggs and Jay DID NOT PUT A PLAN TOGETHER IN THE BEGINNING BECAUSE JAY WAS ALREADY MOVING.”

    ^ im talking about rocafella. you moving off topic. what i said was in the beginning jay was the main and only artist therefore he WOULD be the cash cow. they are all working to profit off jay-z’s lyrics. not hard to tell.

    “I do believe he could have handled his business with or without Dame because Dame and Biggs were not the only players involved. Jay also had a staff and he had an office where he worked so yes I do believe he had the business sense to be successful.”

    ^ first off, that came along AFTER rocafella records was established. which means DAME, the business man, put together the office and staff. and that studio apartment and those “ansering the phones” interns is hardly an office and staff.

    and for the rest of your statement, just bcuz you know how to rap, does not mean you know how to run a record label. thats why DAME, being the BUSINESS MAN out the three, went to school and learned the mechanics of the shit.

    see what you do is read a bunch of jay-z books and jay-z interviews, so what your feeding yourself is a subjective perspective of the situation. instead of the real life facts and real life common sense and a lil bit a street sense. bcuz the thoughts and actions of street niggaz are COMPLETELY different from average niggaz. and im not knocking jay AT ALL. thats my dude. but your just talking a bunch of bias bullshit, and putting him on an infallible pedestal comparable to the pope, bcuz hes your fav rapper.

  87. damn niggas writin bibles in the comments now.

  88. ^ fall the fuck back

  89. omg lol wtf internet thugs

  90. *looks at the name tekzilla

    “omg lol wtf internet thugs”

  91. Fake ass hiphop fan, tekzilla is the name of a song by hi tek and common. You just sonned yourself, go write in your diary you emotional, bible writing faggot.

  92. @The realest again your still missing the point. WHO WAS THE UNDERLINED MAIN FACTOR? JAYZ and you honestly believe Jay couldnt function without Dame? Stop it because Dame could not make deals on behalf of Jay without Jay cosigning it but Jay could have done what he wanted on behalf of himself and the whole label. Look at every single action that took place at the Roc, now where did those moves begin at? From the albums that Jay created, Dame had limitations on his power in hip hop. Jay was and still is one of the top Mcs fool so they were not EQUAL. No YOU cant memorize lyrics at the same quality of songs on RD and YES I do believe a person who was on top of his game in the streets can understand how a record label runs. Cause we aint just talking your normal hustla or rapper here. The proof is almost obvious, you know Dames personality and you know Jays from years of them being figures in rap. Does Jay look like the type of person that cant function without Dame and needs to hold his hand or does it look like the other way around? Since Jay and Dame stopped doing business has that effected Jays performance at all? NO so if Dame left during the BP1 dayz or even before that do you think Jay still wouldnt be successful? Dame wasnt the only player around Jayz in 97. Puff, Irv, Steve Stoute, Russell, Lyor were all around Jayz as well. Yes Dame had alot to do with the success of RD but not more then the man who wrote the fucking songs. All the business ventures after the fact werent just from Dame because it was Jay that set the trends. @Pauly your just dumb for jumping into an argument about wether or not Jay helped his artists, especially Kanye. Go back and listen to his first album again until you catch what im talking about and when you do STFU because the level of success and influence Jay had when he helped Kanye with his album most definitely helped.

  93. @Tekzilla

    I’ve been laughed at? Really? And secondly, should I care? I’m not tryna inspire some marshmellow puff ass niggas on the internets.

    @marty

    That wasn’t my argument at all. MY argument was if Jay did TWO verses on College Dropout…which…he didn’t.

  94. Fuck this man, I’m tired of arguing with people that are clearly biased and can’t back up ANY of their points.

    I’m out.

  95. I didnt say two verses, I said he was on there twice and maybe you were too young to understand what im talking about but when Kanye first was out it was obvious to everybody that Jayz was involved. People expect Jay to sign a rapper then do all the songs for them then go make the album platinum for the artist and thats bullshit.

  96. @ marty mcfly, if marty mcfly had the chance to suck, Jay z’s illuminatic Dick he probably would…who was a superstar on roc a fella other than jay??KANYE and that is it!!!Kanye did it on his on, his singles were on his own, his radio success was on his own!!!one verse from jay, and in that song kanye even states how jayz did not believe in him..u can not attribute Dmx or Murder inc success to jay z…that is absurd to even make a slight connection!u dick riding faggot!!jay z is a bitch who could not represent his own city when “the dogg pound crushed.. the buildings” Prodigy been saying so

  97. @ tekzilla

    i should kill myself bcuz i dont listen to hi tek? lol hmm. okay.

    @ marty

    you keep talkin bout how they was not equal when they clearly was if not dame had the upper hand, in the beginning. yeah jay was around stoute and russle and puff, but he DAMN SURE wasnt gonna be partners with them. wtf. are you kidding me. he would have been a aigned artist which means he would be NO WHERE NEAR where he is now, for one.

    two, i say dame had the upper hand in the beginning bcuz he had the whole “lets be and stay independent” mindset and approach. jay was the one that wanted to go corporate and mainstream(no need to further explain that, its clear as day *cough def jam). what jay did was use dame in the beginning for his business knowledge and sense bcuz jay was so ignorant to anything outside of hustling. then after a few years of working with him and being a well-known established artist, of course he would have more influence then dame.

    but jay without dame is no jay. simple as that. he wouldnt have had anyone naive enough to partner with a 26 yr old street hustler. thats NOT happening with russle(lol at that one), puff(biggie was just as great if not greater than jay, so biggies deal is the closest he could have gotten), or stoute(not tough enough do some of things dame did and say some of the things dame said). maybe irv but irv is not as smart as dame so he wouldnt have learned as much, which means all that maybach niggaz in paris talk he does now would be null and void.

  98. Nobody said you should kill yourself fam. Its not that serious.

  99. But seriously if you dont like at least the old hi-tek wtf is wrong with you?

  100. @ tekzilla

    its not my cup of tea. i dont even consider myself a full hiphop fan. not musical enough. not knocking it tho.

  101. realest just be quiet cause you dont know what your talking about. You think there would be no Jay without Dame. Well first of all Jay already was almost done with the lyrics to RD when he met Dame, he was already doing shows and he already had made up in his mind that the labels didnt understand him and he already had hired people that he was friends with to push his album when it was done. 2nd how did Dame have the upper hand when Jay is MAKING THE MUSIC? That is impossible for Dame to have the upper hand on music he is not making. You can say they were partners but just the fact that Jay is a partner and also the fucking artist is not a equal partnership. You keep talking as if Jay was a stupid nickle and dime hustler. NO fool he was far from the average hustler and rapper. Dame was introduced to Jay at first and Jay didnt even talk to him and after a while of Dame coming around alot then they became cool. Jay is no fool that needed Dame because you know that Jay would never fully put his life in someone elses hands. Did you hear RD, does that sound like someone just looking to be the artist without no sense of business? OK then, you talking about there would be no Jay without Dame but Jay was already cool with alot of industry people and was already respected in NY as a rapper so im sure he would have found his way in. Dame did not have the upper hand because he aint got more money then Jay and he was not an equal parnter because again Jay was a partner and an artist. What did Jay say on the first line of Lost One? If Dame made Hov, ok then make another Hov. Thats not gonna happen. Dame approach labels first for a deal, it was not Jay. You say the other label owners and business men in hip hop would not have done a deal with Jay and that mite have been true in 95 but by the end of 96 they all wanted him on there team thats why Puff took him on tour and why Russell was telling him to market himself as not just a label but a brand that includes clothes and other ventures. It was not all Dame and again do you honestly think a character such as Jayz was stupid or just another worker bee? COMEONSON

  102. ^
    only bitch ni66as rite whole paragraphs on blogs

  103. before i start, you keep saying that dame had no connection to the music being made once so ever, but wasnt it DAME who heard and then persued the “hard knock life” beat that became jays biggest single? so all this “it all jay he did everything by himself” bullshit is really idiotic.
    and you keep saying they werent equal but dame sure did have an equal stake in the company. so i guess jay was so smart that he paid dame CEO money to do nothing and have his name on every album being produced. thats what your saying. okay.

    now, jay got RD out there BCUZ OF DAME! dame was already managing acts and had the necessary connects for jay to be able to get his music heard.

    and so if all that what your saying is true, why did jay CO-found rocafella in the first place, and not just do it on his own. if all that is true, sir. ?

    “If Dame made Hov, ok then make another Hov.”

    ^ 1. if kanye sided with dame, that line would be null and void. 2. if dipset would have kept their steam going during post Black Album and gain a tad bit of commercial appeal, that line would be null and void. cam easily could have been the new jay or atleast be sitting where birdman and wayne are sitting right now. 3. puff never made another biggie, so are you saying puff is a nobody as well? what about jermaine dupri? master p? irv? the list goes on and on. that was a hardass line in the context of the song, but it all actuality, it holds no weight in an actual debate.

  104. @rico and Dis faggot, you homos can be mad all you want but the proof is there. Look at all the people around in the Rocafella situation and even the people who werent directly there like Irv and Diddy ask yourself did they have a relationship with Jay? Ok now what was Jays position in it all? He was the core fools. Rico you telling me you heard of Ja Rule before Can I Get A off HKL2? Dont play yourself and Irv had Dmx go battle Jay in the beginning so that in itself lets you know there was some level of involvement by Jay. Him Dmx and Ja was about to do a whole project called the murders that Irv was gonna A&R so what does that tell you? You ever seen the movie Backstage? Did Jay not give DMX his own time on the HKL tour? Dmx probably got the least amount of helped from Jay in the beginning but then again DMX got alot of hype because people thought he would destroy the shinny suit shit from Puff and the money talk from Jay but then DMX popped up with Jay in a video called MONEY CASH HOES. As for Kanye doing it on his own? That fact that there is footage of Jay welcoming him to the Roc and the fact that Kanye gives respect to the Roc during the whole album makes you sound stupid. Plus Kanye did more then a albums worth of beats for Jay by then so you telling me that Jayz making classic songs over his beats didnt help him? You can make all the bitchass comments you want but if you go do a song with Jayz right now and then put out an album on his label or go on tour with him or do songs with him. Then he helped you PERIOD. Smh

  105. realest Dame was managing rappers that were his friends at the time. Thats not the same as managing someone that you purely believe in their musical ability and he had limited knowledge of the industry at that time. No it was not Dame that got the HKL beat, it was Jay who heard it and asked for it. Dame just went and got it. You still talking about an equal partnership but you clearly didnt understand when I pointed out that Jay played more then one position so that doesnt make it equal. RD came out because priority distributed it, now Dame did get that part of the puzzle BUT jayz has said before that Dame was a really good talker and if you breakdown what he saying alot of it is some bullshit but you still believe it by the time he’s done talkin and thats why Biggs thought he was better at getting the message across because Jay didnt like to talk for a long period of time. He would just say what he wanted to do and leave it at that. Dame was a theatrical hype man kinda talker but believe me Jay always thought about what his next move was cause I really cant picture him asking Dame what to do because Jay knew already what he wanted.

  106. This aint about just praising Jayz cause all the artist around this time were great but this is about Rocafella and what role that machine played in positioning other artists. Dame was a factor but honestly alot of fans of Jayz didnt even know who the bald headed nigga in his videos dancing like he was Puff really was anyway

  107. Marty, real shit dawg…you need a life. A girl. Friends. A job. A television. SOMETHING.

    Put DOWN the Cheetos and actually DO SOMETHING.

  108. Pauly again you can make all the side comments you want but nobody is forcing you to read my comments and just the fact you wanna talk about what I should be doing lets me know you have no argument and you just mad about losing every debate you have with me. Bitch and just for the correction on my part, DMX was not in the money cash hoes video he was just on the song.

  109. The fuck? I wasn’t even SERIOUSLY debating with you, but I’ll guess “lose” this one time…I don’t want to hurt your self esteem…

  110. Then what the fuck are you talking for? Go jack off to Em posters white boy cause you cant fuck with me on no level in any way period cause you’ve lost EVERY TIME. @the realest Correction again, I forgot if Dame got the HKL beat. Now that I think about it I dont recall him having anything to do with that song at all but Idk

  111. it wasnt dames job for ppl to know him. THAT WAS JAYS JOB. HE WAS THE PUBLIC FIGURE AND ARTIST. most ppl cant point out steve stoute or lyor cohen, but that doesnt mean their less important than the artist, marty.

    and your interpretation of the HKL beat is false. how you just show your bias opinion by saying “it was Jay who heard it and asked for it. Dame just went and got it.” is crazy to me.

    “jayz has said before that Dame was a really good talker and if you breakdown what he saying alot of it is some bullshit but you still believe it by the time he’s done talkin and thats why Biggs thought he was better at getting the message across because Jay didnt like to talk for a long period of time. He would just say what he wanted to do and leave it at that. Dame was a theatrical hype man kinda talker”

    ^ ima just say this and leave it at that bcuz you just proved my point with what you just said there, DAME GOT THE DEALS DONE. end of story. you say dame wasnt equal, jay didnt need dame, but DAME GOT THE DEALS DONE. no deal, no anything. thats the bottonline. YOU even said that jay does talk alot and just says what he wants to do and thats it. that MIGHT work now days bcuz hes already Jay-Z, but how can you get any deals done(ESPECIALLY at 26 coming off the streets not even finishing high school) if you cant articulate or get your point across? you expect ppl in any kind of business to just take your word for it? c’mon now. THATS how jay needed dame. THATS how they were equal. yes, jay was the rapper and the one generating the money, but DAME was the one making the deals go thru SO THAT they could be propley funded SO THAT jay COULD generate the money. do you get me now? or are you still blinded by your subjectivity? or are you just gonna keep going and going bcuz you dont wanna feel and or seem like your wrong? is it answer A, B, or C.

  112. None of the “record” deals Dame negotiated but DID NOT CLOSE WITHOUT JAY funded any albums. Dame got distribution for RD and again was the middle man between Jay and other factions because Jay cannot record do shows and answer phones at the same time. If Dame discussed something about Jay you honestly think Jay didnt ok it first. What is a deal without no music? Exactly = nothing. Why would Jays high school education make a difference when he was making more money then teachers at the fucking school. Dame got distribution for ONE album. You honestly think that Jay wouldnt be able to function without Dame is crazy because Jay was around people that were far more powerful then Dame after his first album and again Jay was the artist and without the artist there is no deals to do. There are other Dame Dashes in the world cause alot of artist are managed by people like him.

  113. Are you guys fucking serious? I cant even bring myself to read these novels youre all writing. By the looks of it youre arguing over the intimate details of the business/personal relationship between men youve never met before. Jesus I really hope youre all just teenagers.

  114. I wish you none factor mothafuckas in this conversation would just keep or mouth closed cause there are other sites to go to if you dont wanna be on this one at this time. Bitches

  115. alright, the details of which deals are not arguable bcuz theres no way to prove those. and the reason why dame would have to ok it with jay is bcuz jay is an equal owner, marty. major moves arnt made in companies without the apporval of the board or shareholders or whoever, so that point is null in void as well.
    but what jay would do is make moves outside of rocafella so that he didnt have to get dame to approve or agree, he just would just partner with someone else(snake shit imo) thats how he came about with the S. carters and 40/40 clubs etc. and no, jay would not have been as successful as he is now. he would still be functioning, but he would not be the 400 million dollar man. bcuz signing with puff or russle would have meant being solely an artist, not artist/CEO which hes been since day 1. and stoute would not have been able to get his point across as effectivly as dame for the moves jay wanted to make. nor irv.

    dame and jay was the right match for eachother and thats been proven by the empire THEY created. but egos(mostly jays) brought about the end of that. the end of dame. jay still moving strong, yes, but COULD YOU IMAGINE rocafella as its own independent label housing jay-z, kanye, camron, juelz, young chris, just blaze, and the bench warmers? but when muhfuckas is thinking “im the cash cow so everyone has to listen to me.” unity and power is bound to be divided.

  116. @ tekzilla

    thats what hiphop is about. thats what anything is about. thats all i gotta say. if you dont know enough to voice an opinion, then thats your problem. now peace, i didnt come here to argue about anything other than hiphop

  117. Dont get me wrong I understand what your trying to say but some of it makes it sound like Jay was just some stupid artist. Big Daddy Kane, Biggie and Jaz O all got deals before Jay. You gotta know that he probably learned a few things. Look at all the ventures and all the success that the Roc had with Jay making the most profit. Thats not an accident and Dame would certainly not set it up like that. All them deals you talk about Jay doing snake shit I dont know about because I doubt Jay would have to hide anything from somebody who doesnt generate the same amount of money or interest. What is shady is waiting till Jay is gone on vacation and then using Rocafella and Rocawear money to fund the Oh Boy Video for Cam and then waiting til Jay comes back and sees Cam there and Dame saying oh yeah Jay I told Cam it was cool to use your beat and we already did the video. Of Course Jay would be upset but he still did the deal with Cam and his set and still did a verse for Cams album. You think Jay had more of a ego then Dame Dash? I highly doubt that but lastly this is the main reason why I kept this convo going, because most artists out there are just signing anything and doing whatever they management tells them to do but the bottom line is without talent there would be no deal. Jay chose to stay in control and during that whole time of the Roc dynasty he was never under Dame.

  118. Thats great but you guys are not arguing about hip-hop. Youre arguing about the business relationship of a hip-hop artist and his team. Bottom line is none of you have the facts, and youre basing your biased opinions off hear-say and one-sided points of views. So in your opinion hip-hop is about arguing over trivial shit? Ok fam. “Thats what anything is about” – What does that even have to do with what i said?

  119. thats bcuz jay was not just a regular artist, he was also CEO, so he would never have been under management bcuz hes apart of management. him and dame were side by side, but depending on who your talking to, you’ll get different opinions on who was “the real boss”. jay was always touring and recording plus dropping an album damn near every year, so how much time could he really be spending running the company and handling the behind the scenes stuff. and i know jay not stupid. but you gotta put things into context, in 95/96 jay was a 26 yrold record label CEO without a high school diploma. im sure he learned some things from kane and jaz-o, but your still gonna be pretty ignorant to the mechanics of how a record label is to be operated(and this is pre-internet age), which is where dame came into play.

    and yeah dame and biggs were all partners in rocafella, so they were owed a share of the profits from the label and rocaware, but the s. carters wasnt rocaware, they were just reebok s dots. so dame and biggs werent owed anything. same with 40/40 clubs. thats when jay started distanting himself from rocafella and just wanting to be all him.

    i can believe dame using rocawear money to fund oh boy bcuz i recently heard dame say how all the money he makes he puts back into his companies, so i can see how he would feel entitled to funding oh boy with rocawear money, and i can see why jay would be feeling like hell nah.

    at the end of the day that empire has fallen and it was a great chapter in hiphop history. jay gonna steady keep moving strong, and dame will land on his feet eventually.

    and @ tekzilla

    stop crying for attension. just stop.
