Dame Dash is clearing the air once again about long-running rumors surrounding his relationship with Aaliyah and whether she was romantically involved with Jay-Z first. In a recent interview, Dash dismissed the idea completely, calling the narrative “twisted” and saying people have the timeline wrong.
According to Dash, he and Jay-Z were both interested in Aaliyah around the same time, but Jay-Z was never actually in a relationship with her. Dash emphasized that he would never date someone a close friend had already been with, and that the rumor only survives because fans and media keep reshaping old stories and photos.
For Dash, the truth is simple: Aaliyah chose him — and there was no love triangle.
