What Dame Dash said about Jay-Z exposing his character in “Big Pimpin” is that he had to be fraud, pretending to fool the entire world that he was him, the Roc-A-Fella CEO, just to keep him from selling his share of the company. Down here is the statement he made in the courtroom in regard to selling his part of the recording house.
Dash was trying to auction his one-third stake in Roc-A-Fella when Jay-Z and the label’s attorneys turned around and sued him on claims that he was trying to auction Jay-Z’s album, “Reasonable Doubt,” as an NFT, and that act was breaching the terms of the business deal.

The beef between Dame Dash and Jay-Z was started by a conflict of interest and diversity of approach to business.
Jay-Z was rumored to be getting frustrated with Dash’s way of doing business, and it was one of the most frequent arguments brought up all the time between the two. And the matter turned even more ugly when Jay-Z finalised a deal with Def Jam to be its CEO; after all, it was Def Jam that took over Roc-A-Fella having acquired the balance 50 percent stake from Jay-Z, Burke, and Dash.
“Big Pimpin'” is a song by American rapper Jay-Z from his fourth studio album, Vol. 3… Life and Times of S. Carter (1999), released as the third single in April 11, 2000.
