We recently (along with the rest of world) smiled at a couple of Instagram pics which showed Dame Dash back with his former partner-in-crime JAY Z. While we may or may not ever hear a breakdown from that moment from Hov, Complex managed to get a half-cryptic, half-telling response with the other half:

The photo, we say. Tell us about the photo. With Jay. A pause. What was it like?

Dame sighs, leans back in his chair, and looks up at the ceiling. Either a winsome smile or frustrated grimace creeps onto his face, we can’t really tell. He laughs, leans forward, and looks up at us.

“I don’t want to talk about it. It’s a personal moment, nah’m saying?” He stretches out the word: “Godddddd, man,” laughing again. “Instagram, huh?”

Well, we explain, we had to ask.

“Ask him,” Dash shoots back. Never has a pronoun sounded so loaded.

He’s too busy doing performance art, we note.

“Ah. Ha,” Dash chuckles to himself, crystal clear on the reference.

We say goodbye to some more assistants, and start to head down the stairs when we hear Dash’s voice booming behind us.

“What you think it was like?”

I don’t know. It looked…Nice? Pleasant? Meaningful? Maybe like closure?

“Huh,” Dash smiles again.

Am I close?

“Yeah. You got your answer right there.”

Come on…

“That’s right. You said it right! If that’s how you tell it, you’ll be telling the right story.”

A touch of the poet, we shrug.

Dame Dash leans his head back and laughs as we make our way out.

Vado Responds To Kendrick Lamar’s Verse On ‘Control’

Harlem, New York emcee Vado sat down with Freak Genius TV and Major Moves DVD to talk about his upcoming projects. He said that after “Slime Flu 4” drops a DVD movie will follow. The topic of Kendrick Lamar’s “King of New York” line on “Control” also came up.

“I don’t feel it’s a big deal. I don’t think the bar was even all that. He just said it. But the verse period, overall was hot,” Vado said. “He’s lyrical man, I guess he’s tired of hearing these weak bars out here. I’m tired of it. He just spoke his mind. Niggas gotta step it up. He shouted out his friends, but those his friends. He wasn’t trying to diss ’em.”

Vlad reports (which pics below):

Rappers wearing skirts is nothing new — Kanye West has been spotted in a black leather one on multiple occasions, as has A$AP Rocky. However, the skirts worn by those emcees at least came down to the knee.

Trinidad James recently posed with Tiana and Stephanie from ‘Bad Girls Club 11′ while wearing what appears to be a jean skirt that only drops to mid-thigh. The picture has gone viral on Instagram and Twitter, with many people baffled by the Trinidadian rapper’s bold choice of attire.
