Last month Jay Z filed a motion to legally stake his claim in the masters for his debut album, "Reasonable Doubt," after his former business partner Damon Dash was ordered to auction his share of Roc-A-Fella Records [click here if you missed that].
Now the City of New York is suing Jay for attempting to dilute the value of the auction...
From The Daily Mail
A new party has gotten involved in Jay-Z's ongoing feud with his former business partner Damon Dash: the City of New York.
Ahead of Dash's auction of the copyright to Jay-Z's classic debut album Reasonable Doubt, a lawyer for New York City's Department of Social Services has accused the rapper of 'poisoning' the auction.
In a video posted to X (formerly Twitter) on Friday, Dash read aloud documents filed by the city lambasting the rapper.
The city's lawyer accused Jay-Z (real name: Shawn Carter) of trying to deflate the final value of the auction — which will benefit the city, as Dash owes a substantial amount in child support debt and unpaid taxes — by misrepresenting the value of Dash's third of Roc-A-Fella Records — including the Reasonable Doubt copyright.
Dame Dash tells Steve Stoute to stop lying and says that Jay-Z's rights to Reasonable Doubt will not revert back to Jay-Z in six years, as some have claimed, but will remain with Roc-A-Fella Inc. until the year 2098.
