Brother Dame Dash! Revisiting this 5 years later and I’m still subscribed to the outlook and approach. Being in corporate and fighting for position to be at the top is weird when they only give you cents on the penny lol people pocket watching and creating dramas at the workplace etc #TallestMidget type shit Play your game, and create your lane.
Big daddy..ur dog always at your side, also sez so much about a great person,faithful,loyal and dont fck around either, they are all thru out bible, if id guess ur totem, I would think dog, eagle,or even snake. In college I took care of a 6ft Burmesepython 4 a summer job, I daily took it around campus, I never realized how smart they were , he knew me, knowing I was taking him out, and I was in awe of it as I am in awe of you! Wise as a serpent sez my point, now back 2ur video then zoom a loom,, wish ud post ur totem! If u know it, I'm eagle hawk and I believe a bit of every creature under natures animal 🌈 .I believe even biblical beasts, truly!

Man y'all need to get a better sound guy this shit sounds terrible,it really took away from the experience of this interview. That stupid street fighter PERFECT! sound effect nearly woke my whole house up at 2am,why do y'all got the sound effects so loud but the interview so low? Y'all got shit backwards.
thank u so much!! to Julian and Dame! great questions jules. And Dame always has amazing insights and a great, healthy mindset timestamp below: 0:00 i like the intro and the mindset he's coming from of fly , passionate, creative, driven hustler but still be fly and not a cornball like dame , hov, puff, kevin hart, will smith, nipsey hustly, black mamba and other excellent people from our culture who are stil cool that we ressonate with and what it means to get paid to be yourself 5:35 dame comes out and what are some things that frustrated him abt corporate 8:30 boss' dont ask. rich dad principle- pay yourself first. some diff on how corporate and independent run 10:55 some principles abt abeing a boss or independent. house analogy . some benefits off being the boss 12:10 going from having a boss to being a boss and some of how to do it 13:00 dame being ahead of his time with his mindsets and how he feels about people catching up . look at what people pay for, and do it yourself. be the plug (there was so much game in here i couldnt catch them all. i have to rewatch it again) 18:00 you're never broke when u have money in the streets 20:20 dame alludes to the fact that he may have made an effort to do one of my biggest dreams. Seeing him and puff collab and get money together and go for world domination! we need to stick together. no one is taking from u- its better if everyone is strong than if u are the only strong one out there . have that mindset of genuinly wanting others to win because u understand that its in everybodys best interest. Yes, yours as well. its a win/win! dame does stupid shit sometimes. or doesnt do what he's should 22:35 good work vs leveraging celebrity 24:15 doing what u love, leveraging that 25:20 how dame managed to run so many business' simultaneously 28:30 u need to flip! 29:30 u might not want a big staff! it could be like running on a treadmill 30:15 believe in yourself. how dame started believing in himself and making himself rich not others anymore 32:05 some challenges dame has had to deal with is the disrespect he had to sustain in corporate (got to timestamp this part later) 39:45 what it maeans to be independent and why its importantvb 1:19:20 how dame markets things 34:00 dont sell your time for money. do things u love.
Dame should travel to black high schools in The country. He'd damn sure can change these kids minds to be entrepreneurs than employees. Dame a straight hustler
Sometimes, I think Dame thinks very one-dimensionally. He always mentions this idea of starting out by "Buying something, bottling it up and selling for double" as a consistent means to advance however, most legitimate business ventures do not yield 100% return-on-investment as he often suggests. Dame seems to be referring to "hustling" legitimate and oftentimes illegitimate as the way to go, as without having to pay taxes, follow laws and such you probably can assure yourself a ROI like 100%. The issue with this mindset is when it becomes time to make the jump from "Illegitimate Street Hustler" to "Corporate Businessman" a lot of things change, and very drastically. And this is why I think Dame found himself in the position he ended up in with Roc-a-fella and Def Jam. My advice; listen to his points, consider his history and make your own decisions from there. No one man's word is gospel, not even the pastor.
