Kendrick Lamar has been offered the chance to buy a stake in Roc-A-Fella Records by Dame Dash after an old tweet about JAY-Z and Nas resurfaced.
Back in June 2010, Kendrick wrote on X (then Twitter): “I’m sorry, Reasonable Doubt is better than Illmatic… #youcanunfollowmenow.”
The post gained the attention of Dame, who posted a screenshot of it on Instagram on Thursday (June 6) and wrote: “@kendricklamar my 3rd is for sale if you want to buy it. Any serious offers DM.”
Kendrick has yet to publicly respond.
Dash owns a third of Roc-A-Fella Records which he co-founded with JAY-Z and Kareem “Biggs” Burke in 1994.
The mogul, who has experienced financial issues in recent years, was recently blocked from selling his shares in the legendary record label.
Dame was initially ordered to sell his stake in the company by a judge after he allegedly refused to pay a $823,000 lawsuit settlement to movie producer Josh Weber that stemmed from the 2016 film Dear Frank.
Hov and Biggs then objected to the sale on the legal basis that the board of directors must first approve the deal.
Dash later explained his version of events over the blocked sale, saying: “In 2021, I was trying to sell my shares at public auction. Jay and Biggs sued me — or had Roc-A-Fella Inc. sue me — and say I was trying to sell all the shares.
“I’m the CEO of Roc-A-Fella. What Jay did was pretend to be the CEO of Roc-A-Fella. He hired his lawyers on Roc-A-Fella Inc.’s behalf and sued me. Jay’s lawyers were being paid by me and the money generated from Roc-A-Fella Inc.”
It has also been alleged that Dash has no control over the sale of his shares, even though the record executive had said he was free to sell his stake to whoever he wanted.
Prior to making a public offer to Kendrick Lamar, the Harlem native teased selling his share of the label to former signee Cam’ron and Ma$e.
“I’m just celebrating the fact I can freely sell it and that I have the option to sell it to Cam and Ma$e,” he said on his America Nu Network in March.
“I’m not saying that I haven’t. I like to pass the torch. I like what they’ve done. They didn’t fold. They from Harlem, we all came up together and it would be fun to see them running Roc-A-Fella.”
Can’t this guy get run over by a fucking truck already?
This but with kendrick with how he put drake’s kids on blast and ruining their privacy.
he dont want to sell cuz he would just sell it to Jay. He being a petty B and looking to sell to someone else lol Bum behavior.
U mean like Jay erasing him from his history ain’t petty as hell.
How has Dame been erased when he has 1/3 of a share in the company?
exactly – they act like Dame didn’t put the bricks down in that house
Kendrick got some great taste. He knows hov is the rap GOAT
Not even Top 3. Neither is Pac!
Whites smell like wet dogs when it rains
smells are based on diet and environment. people who have already traveled through Europe explain different smells with different cultures. whites this or blacks this is just low iq immature inexperienced behavior and thought process.
So says the no deodorant wearing, what the fuck is soap,shampoo and water, musky smelling sweat and breath that smells like shit sandwiches are a favorite of yours born loser.
Dames that guy at the corner w the fake chains, 20 dollars and an 8th .. might get a sale here and there but walks around like hes frank lucas in his head believing it.. but everyone else lookin in see whats up. Frontin and fake flexing
You must be under the age of 30. If not your a retard . Dame created roc a fella and j z did some sname ass shit to take over control of it. Dame didn’t sell out and suck dick like j that’s why he ain’t where he is supposed to be. If you actually knew what you were talking about you would be quiet.
You were there to verify this? Or did you just choose a side like most people??? You hear stories of shadyness on both sides. Based on how I’ve seen him behave in public and speak to people over the years… Dame seems like he is in a bed him made. But other than that.. no side for me.
He got played so I don’t blame him people talk about things but doesn’t really know what going on outside looking in stop it because it is wrong see the truth and j is not what you think he still people music to and people don’t really want to do business with him like that but some people do because they scared of him but you have to see the truth
I’m sorry Kendrick but no, it’s not.
