Re-Enter Damon Dash...
"I am actually impressed with her independent spirit, she seems like a fighter," Roy's ex tweeted after the elevator brawl made headlines (thanks to someone at the hotel leaking the security footage to TMZ, which caused heads to roll at The Standard).
Dash then contributed his own interpretation of what happened in an interview with Hip Hop Motivation, shot in the kitchen of his Malibu home later that May. "I was laughing, that s--t was funny," he shrugged. "I mean, I wouldn't have handled it like that but I just thought it was funny 'cause, you know, Jay is the kinda guy, you know you don't see him movin' like that that much. So when he does move, if it's not, like, that cool lookin', then it's gonna be kicks. Also I feel like nobody teases Jay except me for some reason.
"It's just the first time I've seen people freely expressing themselves. What I'm really happy about is that when they were botherin' on me, saying I was broke and all that, there wasn't any Instagram. 'Cause I'm sure people would've been havin' mad-funny jokes."
Dash continued, "Jay has to worry about perception because corporately people pay him. So, you know, he really has to play that game. So I thought what was ironic about it was people got to see how he plays s--t off, and how something crazy can happen and then four seconds later, when there's cameras on, they act like there's nothing going on. That was interesting to see that and how good he is at it--but then it just kinda exposes, like how do you trust anything moving forward?"
