🚨 DAME DASH SAYS KANYE WEST HAS BEEN SHUTTING DOWN STADIUMS AROUND THE WORLD ON THE SAME DAYS JAY-Z PERFORMS BUT ISN’T GETTING THE SAME RECOGNITION! 👀
Dame Dash recently appeared on The Art of Dialogue and pointed out something he believes people in the media should be paying closer attention to.
According to Dame, Kanye West, aka Ye, has repeatedly been performing in different countries on the SAME DAYS Jay-Z has taken the stage and the crowds, production, and energy at Ye’s shows have been nothing short of crazy!
🗣️ DAME DASH:
“Look at the day that Jay performs, and look at what Kanye did that same day. Look at how crazy what Kanye did was. Compare it. Look at the crowd and compare the crowds.”
➡️ Dame says Ye has been putting on massive shows around the world without major sponsorships, delivering elaborate performances with the crowd singing along to every song.
➡️ He even referenced Ye’s recent performance, describing him walking out dressed like an astronaut and jumping onto a globe while the entire crowd was rocking with him.
➡️ Dame believes these performances deserve MUCH more media attention, especially when you consider the scale of the production and the crowds showing up internationally.
👀 DAME DASH’S BIGGER POINT?
Despite the comparisons, Dame says he feels proud watching both Jay-Z and Kanye succeed because he sees their accomplishments as part of his own legacy.
He even compared them to his children, arguing that watching people he helped influence reach these heights should be a source of pride rather than jealousy.
🗣️ DAME DASH:
“How could I look at that as a negative? That’d be ridiculous. It would be feminine to be jealous of people that you birthed.”
🤔 THE BIG QUESTION:
Is Dame Dash making a valid point about the media coverage surrounding Ye’s stadium performances, or are people already giving Kanye the recognition he deserves?
Because if Ye is consistently drawing massive crowds and delivering elaborate shows internationally, shouldn’t those performances be part of the conversation right alongside Jay-Z’s?

That was the strangest Jay Z show I've seen
Seems like the crowd at SoFi was like 60 - 70% casuals? They didn't seem to know the deep cuts and it looked like Jay was speed running thru his set due to the energy
Either that or the sound in the stadium just wasn't hittin'

Don C recalls how Ye had sneaker deals with Nike and Louis Vuitton at the same time without either company knowing and says Ye changed sneaker contracts forever. 👟🔥
“Nothing in the Nike contract said we couldn’t do a Louis. Nothing in the Louis contract said we couldn’t do a Nike.”
“So many things in culture are because of Kanye West.”

It’s crazy to see the way people can watch one of the most impressive feats in modern technology and their first impression they’ll film for an instagram video is “when would you ever use this”
Normies viewing the world with this egocentric attitude that they know more than people who has devoted their entire lives towards a vocation has become one of our most toxic traits as a collective conscious

Dear President Kornbluth and Chairman Gorenberg,
Yesterday, as I am sure you are aware, a Boston jury unanimously found that @MIT professor Kristin Knouse defamed David Sabatini, falsely accused him of rape and sexual harassment, and tortuously interfered with his contractual arrangements including his tenure at MIT.
MIT and its tenure review committee relied on Professor Knouse’s statements when it took away David’s tenure and terminated him.
MIT's policies explicitly prohibit harassment, retaliation, and fabrication of claims. Falsely accusing a colleague of rape and sexual harassment and pushing for his termination under false pretenses are clearly violations of MIT policy.
In light of the unanimous findings of the jury after five years of discovery, many legal motions and countermotions by both parties, and a three-week trial in Suffolk County Superior Court in Boston:
Is MIT going to take away Knouse’s tenure and terminate her?
If not, why not?
Is MIT going to restore David’s tenure, and apologize for firing him?
If not, why not?
In light of what has transpired in this grave miscarriage of justice, MIT has the opportunity and the obligation to right a serious wrong here.
At a minimum, the public deserves transparency into what actions MIT is taking in this case as taxpayers are major funders of MIT.
Sincerely,
Bill Ackman
A civil jury ruled in favor of ex-MIT scientist David Sabatini, who was accused by a younger colleague of inappropriate sexual conduct in his Cambridge research lab, and awarded him $6 million in damages. trib.al/s3v9VIX

Kim Kardashian reflects on her past relationship with Ye, and how he changed her life ❤️🩹
“That time in my life was so, so much fun. And so special. It was, like, the normal years, the calm before the storm.”
“I realize that he loves, like, a project, right? I think he really fell in love with the idea of me, and the project behind it all. He loves things that maybe aren't cool and 'I'm going to make them cool.'”
“Whether it's, like, 'I’m going to stop rapping and do a whole singing album, like 808s [& Heartbreak].'”
“And everyone’s like, 'How could you not rap? It's blasphemy!' And then it’s the best album.”
“I think he's like, 'Let me be with a reality star. No one respects it. I’m going to show you how cool it is.' He changed my life. He absolutely changed my life.”
She also explained how Ye would love to style her, and her openness to learn about high fashion from him:
“I just didn’t know anything about high fashion. There were all these fashion books piled up. It was time to get to work and learn. He gave me so much confidence.”

I want to publicly apologize for what I did to ye
Ye paid me a substantial amount for my contributions and I was ungrateful.
I'm gonna take this as a lesson learned.

On the Cornell case: "We cannot claim to stand for sexual freedom and then recoil in disgust when there’s a possibility that a young woman simply chose to exercise it." —@NikosMohammadi
Refreshing to see a college paper demonstrate courage on this issue — proud of my successors at @Sundial_CU.
The “Cornell Seven” is really about liberalism as practiced in the opening decades of the 21st century — celebrating libertine sexuality while infantilizing women.

Uh, wut?
It was a Monday evening around dinner time when a text popped up on Jane Doe's cellphone on Oct. 21, 2024, less than 48 hours after a night of excessive drinking, drug use and group sex at the Chi Phi fraternity house on the Cornell University campus. Over 10 days of intermittent texting, in messages obtained by CBS News, Doe told him to not feel shame and asked him to look for earrings she thought she lost that night. cbsn.ws/4B5oIVs
