Choke No Joke<\/strong>, real name Arthur D Alston III<\/strong>, posted a live video on his YouTube channel yesterday, claiming that Damon Dash was a “Diddy before Diddy.” Choke No Joke<\/strong> is a former videographer for Roc-a-Fella Records<\/strong> and associate of Jay-Z<\/strong> and Damon Dash<\/strong>. Choke No Joke has been in a long running feud with Damon Dash over ownership of videos the videographer recorded while working with Dash and Roc-a-Fella, and a recent back and forth in which Dash has been alleging Choke was a “rat.”<\/p>\n

Observers have referred to the Roc-a-Fella Records<\/strong> infighting as being deep rooted. Jay-Z<\/strong>, real name Shawn Carter, has made headlines recently with some whistleblowers connecting him to the alleged criminal syndicate of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs<\/strong>. Combs is currently under federal indictment<\/strong> and faces a bevy of civil lawsuits, alleging everything from kidnapping, sexual assault, battery, racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, forced labor, obstruction of justice, among other crimes. Comb’s associates have been tied into many of the lawsuits, leading many to wonder if Jay-Z<\/strong> and Damon Dash<\/strong> are next to be named.<\/p>\n

Choke No Joke<\/strong> states the Damon Dash<\/strong> and ‘his man,’ presumable Jay-Z<\/strong>, blacklisted him from the music industry.<\/p>\n

He goes on to attack Damon Dash for accusing him of being ‘a rat’ ‘without receipts,’ then pointing to Dash as the ‘original Diddy.’<\/p>\n

“You never been arrested when you was 14 years old? Tell people what you caught a case for? See what he got arrested for when he was 14. Now he out here talking about Diddy? … You was the original Diddy!<\/strong>” [8:20]<\/p>\n
