SOURCE NOT STATED IN THE POST

Published · reached Usenet June 28, 2002

Dame Dash said yesterday (June 27) that he was the person that prevented Nas from performing at Hot 97's Summer Jam concert. "Who do you think made that phone call? I just wanted to aggravate ," he said. "I can't rap, but I can get at him though." Dame also said that he didn't think Nas would get so angry over his not being able to perform. Hot 97 stands by their claim that the simulated lynching, not Dash prevented Nas from performing.
