Dame Dash has made a serious accusation against his former business partner JAY-Z. He alleges that JAY-Z is sabotaging the sale of his one-third ownership stake in Roc-A-Fella Records.
The controversial comments from JAY-Z regarding the copyright ownership of his debut album ‘Reasonable Doubt’ seem to be at the heart of the issue.
JAY-Z claimed that the copyright for his debut album ‘Reasonable Doubt’ would revert to him in 2031. These statements have reportedly disrupted the public auction process for Dame Dash’s shares in Roc-A-Fella Records.
They claim the copyright for ‘Reasonable Doubt’ will remain with Roc-A-Fella until 2098. The City also accused the label of not providing royalty proof.
Dash claimed JAY-Z’s actions have considerably lowered the potential auction price. He accused Roc-A-Fella of being complicit by not challenging JAY-Z’s false statements.
Dash also owes almost $1 million to film producer Josh Webber. This debt arose from a copyright infringement lawsuit over the movie ‘Dear Frank.’
The situation has become complicated with JAY-Z’s controversial comments. The false claims about ‘Reasonable Doubt’ have muddied the waters, making the auction process more contentious.
The controversy brings unwelcome attention to the label. It raises questions about future ownership and management of the label’s assets.
The debate has sparked widespread discussions across social media. Fans and industry insiders are speculating about the potential outcomes of this high-stakes conflict.
The clash between Dame Dash and JAY-Z over Roc-A-Fella Records is far from over. Legal battles and public accusations continue to fuel the tension.
As the situation unfolds, the hip-hop world remains alert. The eventual outcome could have lasting impacts on the legacy of Roc-A-Fella Records.
