Dame Dash revealed some exciting news, claiming Drake slid into his Instagram DMs with a huge proposal. Here’s the scoop on the situation and what’s at stake.
- Drake made an offer to buy Dame Dash’s one-third ownership of Roc-A-Fella Records.
- Dame hinted that Drake might sport a Roc-A-Fella chain to outshine Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl performance.
- Dash expressed uncertainty about why Drake went quiet after making the offer.
- Legal issues mean Dame might not be able to sell his shares without a hitch.
Dame Dash recently dropped a bombshell, stating that Drake reached out via Instagram direct messages with an offer to buy his one-third ownership stake in Roc-A-Fella Records. Dash didn’t disclose the offer amount but said it involved a major piece of hip-hop history.
Dash mentioned that Drake’s move would allow him to own a third of Roc-A-Fella, have a say in board meetings for the next seven years, and profit from it. However, Dash also expressed doubts, saying, “I’m not quite sure what happened, but I thought that he had got with Jay or something. But I don’t know.”
Dame suggested that Drake could make a major statement by wearing an original Roc-A-Fella chain to Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl halftime show. He speculated that Drake could outshine Kendrick’s performance, which is organized by Jay-Z, by showing up with the iconic chain.
Despite the exciting news, Dame Dash’s ability to sell his shares is complicated. After losing a copyright infringement lawsuit to film director Josh Webber, Dash’s shares were assigned to the U.S. Marshal. Therefore, any sale would involve legal hurdles.
The auction for Dash’s shares has faced delays and increased the minimum bid due to his significant debts. The sale was set to cover nearly $1 million owed to Webber, with other claimants, including New York State for unpaid taxes and New York City for unpaid child support, also in line for some of the funds.
Dame Dash’s revelation about Drake’s offer adds another twist to the ongoing drama surrounding Roc-A-Fella Records.
