Dame Dash Responds to Fat Joe Saying He Should ‘Make’ Another Jay-Z

While at first it seemed like Fat Joe’s message was directed at Dame, he specifically mentioned it wasn’t a dig at the rap mogul.

“So whoever you are—you know Jay-Z said, ‘You made a Jay-Z, go make another Jay-Z.’ he continued. “And that’s not a direct shot at Dame Dash, I have no issues with Damon Dash. I’m just saying—that’s one of the most historic lines ever, and I happen to think that Dame Dash is a smart guy, an intelligent guy, but he said it. He made one, go make another one. You can’t tell me that because I put Big Pun on, then I put DJ Khaled on.”

Fat Joe is referencing Hov’s song “Lost Ones” from his 2006 album Kingdom Come, where the Brooklyn native opens the first verse with, “I heard motherfuckers sayin’ they made Hov / Made Hov say, ‘Okay, so? Make another Hov!’” The lines were a direct jab at the rapper’s ex-business partners, Dame and Kareem “Biggs” Burke, with Dame often claiming that he brought Jay-Z success. In turn, Jay-Z urged Dash to make another Jay-Z.
