Dame Dash has claimed that Drake has made him an offer to buy his one-third ownership stake of Roc-A-Fella Records.
Speaking on his America Nu Network, Dash explained that Drizzy made the offer after sliding into his Instagram DMs, although he didn’t reveal exactly how much money the 6 God offered him.
“Drake hollered at me through DM and made an offer,” he said. “I’m not quite sure what happened, but I thought that he had got with Jay or something. But I don’t know.
“It would be a good time to close, but if you got it. I wouldn’t do it if he don’t got it. If you want to own Reasonable Doubt, if you want to own a third of [Roc-A-Fella] and have a say at the board meetings for at least the next seven years and make money off of it.”
The Harlem mogul also suggested that Drake could upstage his rival Kendrick Lamar‘s Super Bowl halftime show next February, which is organized by JAY-Z, by attending the game wearing an original Roc-A-Fella chain, which Dame previously offered to gift the buyer of his shares.
While discussing Kendrick’s much-discussed performance, Dame said: “I’m thinking, ‘What would I do if I was Drake?’ I’d be like, ‘Well, a big W would be to be come to the Super Bowl with one of these Roc-A-Fella chains.'”

Despite Dame Dash’s insinuation that he is the one selling his shares in the storied record label, he was stripped of sale power after losing a copyright infringement lawsuit to film director Josh Webber.
Christopher Brown, who represented Webber in the dispute, told Rolling Stone in April that only he and the U.S. Marshal can sell off the shares.
“His shares have actually been assigned to United States Marshal, [at] my request,” Brown said. “So he actually doesn’t have anything to sell. He’s not even in possession of this stock.”
The public auction for the shares was recently delayed to September 21 due to the sheer enormity of Dash’s debts and the various claimants that have come forward.
The sale was originally enforced to cover Dash’s nearly $1 million debt to Webber, but various other parties have laid claim to the funds from the auction as well.
Both New York State and New York City want money from the sale, with the city claiming that Dash owes $197,000 in unpaid child support, while the state wants some of the funds to help settle what it says is Dash’s $8.7 million tax debt.
The minimum bid for the shares has also been raised from $1.2 million to £3 million in an effort to cover Dash’s debts, with the delay also being used to come up with a plan on how the money will be dispersed after the sale.
Smh. This little boy will never learn. #FUCKINGCOLONIZER
This fool is getting desperate to make sure Kendrick doesn’t embarrass the hell out of him at the Superbowl. First the cease and desist letters and now this. Boy’s probably been having panic attacks for weeks now lol
Everything drake touches lately turns to shit. K-dot buried this man. Rest in Peace Drizzy ☠️🪦
Next episode of The Bigger Picture is about to be crazy
Can’t lie, wearing a ROC chain to the Superbowl would be a nice shot. I’d rather enjoy seeing that.
Yeah it would be like being a Bengals fan and wearing a Chiefs jersey at their parade. That’ll show em
