Introduction

Damon Dash‘s most well-known contribution to the entertainment industry is his relationship with the rapper and businessman Jay Z, when they co-founded the music label Roc-A-Fella.

Unfortunately, his financial woes have been greater than his success in recent years, but Damon Dash’s Net Worth is around $2 million today.

Early life

Damon Dash was born in Harlem, New York and was mainly raised by his mother who died when he was 15.

His mother was a hustler and mainly made a living by selling clothes. Dash still remembers her and says that his business prowess has come from his mother only.

Though he spent his life living among people who didn’t focus much on education, Damon wanted a high-class education and always did well in his studies.

However, while growing up he desperately wanted a better life and after some years, realized that the way to this was music and the entertainment industry.

Career in the world of Music

The biggest break for him and the reason for Damon Dash’s net worth reaching a huge amount was when he met Jay Z.

When the two met, Jay Z was undiscovered and wasn’t even signed by any label. Eventually, the two, along with Kareem Biggs Burke, founded the record label Roc-A-Fella.

This proved to be the best decision of his life as Jay Z soon became a huge success after his first album titled Reasonable Doubt was released.

Their success just increased, and Damon Dash even organized a concert for the rapper and they managed to make a profit of $19 million.

The two big names also formed the clothing line Rocawear.

Their record label also grew in size, and Damon Dash was the one who discovered Kanye West.

However, all good things must come to an end and eventually Jay Z and Damon Dash decided to take separate routes. Jay Z left to become president of Def Jam Recordings and many of the artists who were signed with Roc-A-Fella left with Jay Z.

This marked the end of Damon Dash’s career and he was even forced to give up Rocawear to Jay Z.
