Dolph dead my guy and the streets moved on in here . Gotti been king . Dolph was a hustler like Gotti but Gotti is a boss who has always had the juice to make things happen. Dolph didn’t . Is what it is . Happens all the time . Sometimes the old lion is just to strong and to experienced and kills off the younger lion pressing his position

Regardless of how you feel personally about Gotti..... dude has 2 decades PLUS in the game (if we talking early mixtapes damn near THREE decades)....and hes still relavant.....has in my opinion the best label Roster in Rap.... Moneybagg, Glorilla, EST, Big Boogie, 42 Dugg, Etc..... and after all these years that "I showed you so" mixtape was fire 🔥 from start to finish..... his journey from REALLY being in the streets to a real business man is to be commended

@@thegodnasr You're mistaking "brand ambassadors" for partnerships. Diddy was a brand ambassador for Ciroc. Diddy was a brand ambassador for Diageo. These aren't true partnerships lol. If it was Diddy wouldn't be crying on tv talking about how Diageo doesn't support diversity lol. By the way that "partnership" ended and Diddy couldn't do anything about it. You think a predominantly white owned company is going to go go 50/50 with Yo Gotti?? lol Also Dusse isn't Jay-Z's brand. JAY-Z doesn't even know the science for making alcohol. 2nd he didn't even have majority equity in the company so his decisions were limited....which is why he sold his stake claiming the the managing company was racist. lol true bosses don't operate like that. A true boss is when you have FULL control of YOUR company and when YOUR company answers to no other company.
