50 Cent blasts Damon Dash finance woes

50 Cent has claimed that Damon Dash should have "paid attention" to his finances.

The rapper suggested that the former Roc-A-Fella co-owner had never reached rock bottom before finding success with Jay-Z in the late '90s.

He told Vibe: "The case Lil Wayne is in jail for now, when T.I. went, when Gucci Mane went - that was supposed to be 50 Cent. Sometimes I look at artists when they get in trouble after success and it makes me feel like they didn't experience enough of that prior to the success.

"If you did, you would know better... [Around my signing], Damon Dash made reference to a million dollars being no money, in a kind of derogatory way. When he said that, I paid close attention to where I was at financially. But maybe he should've paid attention to his."

Last month, Dash reportedly lost his multi-million dollar New York City duplex.
