You’re gonna say some crazy things.” Dame’s comments come amid the DONDA rapper’s recent social media outburts, leading him to lose several of his cooperate connections.
“You don’t put him in front of a camera. You put them in the house to the hospital,” Dame added “But what happens with him?

It’s like being drunk.” Kanye recently made headlines once again after reportedly storming out of his son Saint’s soccer game after “losing it” in front of his extranged wife Kim Kardashian.
Despite the public backlash Ye’ has received in recent months, Dame Dash says he continues to try and support the 45-year old star. “But you know, I know him. I do talk to him, and I try.
