So there's no point in anyone bidding.TMZ Hip Hop has learned Jay's attorneys just made a legal filing that might normally fly under the radar, but here's why it's suddenly very relevant. As we first reported, Dame's third of Roc-A-Fella is going up for auctionlater this month, and the label's only real asset is Jay-Z's 1996 album, "Reasonable Doubt."
While Roc-A-Fella currently holds the copyright on the record and all its tracks ... Jay's attorneys have now filed notice that those rights will revert to one Shawn Carter/"Jay-Z" in 2031.
Even though Jay and Dame ain't exactly vibing these days, this legal move isn't about revenge, it's just biz -- the rights would have gone back to Jay 35 years after the record was released, anyway. His lawyers have just filed the paperwork to make it official.
So, what does this mean for the August 29 auction? Whoever ends up winning Dame's shares -- minimum bid is $1.2 million -- will enjoy one-third of all "Reasonable Doubt" revenues ... but only for about the next 6 years and change. Then it's all Jay's.
Man how did we get here w Dame
What happened to that circle of success shit
I want him to stop smoking just fake his drug abuse like Future does
lol at niggas still hurt about that shit
He was right his delivery is just off
So does that mean that Dame's share would had automatically gone back to Jay anwyays??? Which, if so, makes him not selling them years ago even more dumb...
LMAO... we all know who them shares are gonna end up with
He been did that….I mean it’s a wrap for KDot if Lupe pens a diss track for Kendrick
I mean im sure its worth something, but it aint like this a hit record.... what's 1/3rd of that supposed to fetch?
