Shannon Sharpe recently sat down with businessman and record executive Steve Stoute, who commended Shannon for his viral interviews.
Steve brought up Shannon's interview with Damon Dash and shared his thoughts on Dash. Despite Dash's stature in the industry and his connections to top artists like Jay-Z, Stoute believes that Dame "blew it" when it comes to leveling up in his career. Stoute delved into the reasons behind the breakdown, citing Dash's inability to adapt and evolve as a key factor.
According to Stoute, Dash's stubbornness and refusal to change his communication style and business philosophy led to conflicts with his partners. As those around him sought to expand their networks and horizons, Dash remained rigid in his approach, causing tension within his circle.
Stoute highlighted Dash's ego as a major obstacle to collaboration and growth. Despite Dash's intelligence and talent, his inflated sense of self prevented others from working with him effectively. Stoute theorized that Jay-Z, one of Dash's business partners at Roc-A-Fella, recognized Dash's limitations and chose to pursue his ambitions elsewhere. You can hear more above.
