Dame Dash Claims Drake Offered To Buy His Stake In ‘Reasonable Doubt’
Drake allegedly wanted to buy Dame Dash’s shares in Roc-A-Fella and his stake of JAY-Z’s Reasonable Doubt.
According to Dash’s recent appearance on America Nu Network, the music executive claimed that Drizzy reached out to him via DMs and made the offer, but nothing came of it.
“I’m not quite sure what happened, but I thought that he had got with Jay or something,” Dash explained at around the 15-minute mark. “But I don’t know. It would be a good time to close. But if you got it. You know, I wouldn’t do it if you don’t got it. But you know if you want to own Reasonable Doubt. If you want to own a third of it, you have to say that at the board meetings for at least the next seven years and make money off of it, I would give this chain.”
Back in July, Lupe Fiasco seemingly supported the allegation in a since-deleted comment that read, “@champagnepapi will keep it safe for generations to come. This is grail and influenced an innumerable amount of rappers to see it peddle such a lack of grace genuinely hurts my feelings a little bit, but also on some savage s**t, f**k it… either donate it to a museum for safekeeping or seriously let Drake make an offer so he can put it where it needs to be.”
The “Daydreamin'” emcee also had an alternative suggestion: “Or just keep the s**t OG.” Fiasco added, “You should be infinitely proud of this. Without it, there is no me as I am and I’m sure other MC’s will agree.”
The following month—despite Dash’s sale of his shares and stake in the hit record—Hov’s legal team filed a notice that the rights to Reasonable Doubt would default back to him in 2031.
Amid this claim, Dash, funny enough, once offered to sell his shares to Kendrick Lamar.
