In a recent interview with Hip Hop Connection’s Kenyatta, music mogul Dame Dash discussed the experiences he had with disgraced film producer Harvey Weinstein during the making of his movie Paid in Full. As Dash explained in this exclusive interview, the way he saw Weinstein talked to the people who worked for him was very disrespectful.
Following multiple women coming forward to say Weinstein had raped, assaulted, and harassed them — Dash fleshed out the story. “I put pressure on him all around the world to put out Paid in Full correctly,” said Dame. “I caught him in France, I caught him in Paris. You know, ’cause they weren’t expecting me to be those places. But they were trying to not put out Paid in Full.”
There were even rumors years ago that Dash may had a physical altercation with Weinstein because Dash believed he was being disrespected however we could not independently verify those rumors.
“I know I made Paid in Full over there, and I know that him and I had a lot of aggressive interaction. And I know even culturally, like, my people would say things, like, I would see interviews with Wood Harris and with Just Blaze and all that, and they’d be like, “Oh, he yelled at Harvey Weinstein. He yelled at the Weinsteins.” But the bottom line is, like, when I look at somebody treat other people wrong, I can’t just look the other way. And any opportunity I get, I know I’m strong, but I’m always gonna make them suffer for the people who aren’t strong enough.”
