Damon Dash issued a brief statement about his reasons for selling his stake in Roc-a-Wear back to former business partner and friend Jay Z.
Dash says he he sold his 25 percent stake in the company because it no longer reflects the man he has become. “I feel like my partners don’t understand what I’m trying to represent. We were getting a bit too demographic,” he states to Contact Music.
He also addresses allegations that he may have misused company funds to finance other projects.
“I think they (the partners) felt like I was using Rocawear money to fund everything else I was doing when, in actuality, I was funding other companies out of my own pocket,“Dash continues. “At least I hope we’re all happy. I don’t know what they’re going to do with my 25 per cent but I don’t even care. Just give me my money.“
