Under the deal, the Roc-A-Fella co-founder conceded he had no right to sell part of Jay Z’s iconic debut album.
after news broke that the erstwhile collaborator was planning off to auction off a portion of his purported rights toRepped by Spiro, Roc-A-Fella argued that the rights to the album were owned by the company, not the individual partners themselves, and that Dash’s one-third ownership in the label didn’t give him a right to sell off its “most prized asset.”
“The sale of this irreplaceable asset must be stopped before it is too late, and Dash must be held accountable for his theft,” the June 2021 lawsuit read. “The bottom line is simple: Dash can’t sell what he doesn’t own.” A judge quickly issued a restraining order barring any form of sale from going forward while the case plays out. Dash has since said he was only trying to sell his stake in Roc-A-Fella, not the actual rights to the album.
