It looks Dame Dash he is very serious about leaving his share Reasonable doubt I am going. He announced that it is for sale.
As mentionted with HotNewHip-Hop, The Harlem, New York native recently took to social media to let people know that Jay-Z's debut track is available for a price. On Friday, July 19, he posted the album artwork with a rather undiplomatic caption stating that he was accepting offers. “This sh*t is on sale 1/3 … for real inquiries only,” he wrote. The second photo in the Instagram post is an image of Jay-Z, Damon Dash and Kareem “Biggs” Burke from the project's original CD booklet.
Naturally, the post quickly went viral and received over 10,000 comments within 24 hours. Lupe Fiasco left a comment, which has since been deleted, urging Drake to buy it. “@champagnepapi will keep it safe for generations to come. This is grail and has influenced countless rappers to see it sell such a lack of grace really hurts my feelings a bit.” Lupe went on to recommend that Dash keep his share saying, “Or just keep the s**t OG you should be so proud of that. Without that there is no me as I am and I'm sure other MCs will agree.”
It's not the first time the former Cakeaholic has tried to sell his 33% ownership in the 1996 effort. During an appearance on Veuit podcast, Dash revealed that Jay-Z offered him $1.5 million for his share, but he told his former partner no. Earlier this year, Cam'ron and Mase were rumored to be buying Dame's stock, but the transaction was never confirmed.
Last month, she reached out to Kendrick Lamar via IG after discovering an old social media post from K Dot from 2010. “Sorry, Reasonable doubt is better than Illmatic…. #youcanunfollowmenow' captioned which Dame posted, '@kendricklamar my 3rd is for sale if you want to buy it.' Kendrick never publicly responded to Dame Dash's offer.
