Roc-A-Fella Records co-founder turned Jay-Z foe Damon Dash ordered to pay $4M for trash-talking filmmaker
Briefly

Damon Dash, co-founder of Roc-A-Fella Records, was ordered by a federal judge to pay $4 million for defaming filmmaker Josh Webber during a March 2024 podcast. Dash made derogatory remarks about Webber while discussing a 2019 film dispute, leading Webber to claim the comments cost him a significant job. This ruling adds to Dash's financial troubles, including $8.7 million in back taxes owed to New York and other judgments for copyright infringement and unpaid child support. Dash's attorney indicated he continues to face legal challenges.
"And I knew this d-khead Chris Brown and Josh Webber and Muddy Waters...These guys trigger me and steal my s-t," he said during the podcast.
"At some point someone on Damon Dash's team needs to tell him that Mr. Webber will always protect his reputation and rights, at all costs," said Christopher Brown.
