Question: how jay z started roc nation?
Answer: So, in 1995 the rapper—then 26—sold CDs out of his car, and with the proceeds, he teamed up with friends Damon Dash and Kareem Biggs to create the Roc-A-Fella Records label in 1995. Jay-Z credited the move, born of a desire to get his music to a wider audience, with pushing him forever into the world of business.
