Former Roc-A-Fella Records artist Memphis Bleek has publicly addressed recent claims made by Dame Dash, co-founder of the legendary label, suggesting that JAY-Z ghostwrote Bleek’s lyrics during their time together. The allegations have sparked conversations across the hip-hop community, with Bleek taking the opportunity to clear the air.
In a recent interview, Bleek responded candidly, saying, “I wish, maybe I’d still be lit.” His statement dismissed the notion that JAY-Z was behind his rhymes, adding a hint of humor to underline his disbelief at the claim.
The controversy began when Dash implied in a discussion that Bleek’s career benefited significantly from JAY-Z’s direct involvement, including alleged ghostwriting. While JAY-Z and Bleek shared a close mentorship and collaborative relationship during Roc-A-Fella’s peak, Bleek has consistently maintained his independence as a lyricist.
Bleek’s response has reignited discussions about the dynamics within Roc-A-Fella Records, a label known for its groundbreaking contributions to hip-hop. Fans and industry insiders alike have weighed in, with many highlighting Bleek’s talents and contributions as a rapper in his own right.
As the debate continues, Bleek’s witty rebuttal serves as a reminder of his confidence in his artistry and his enduring legacy in hip-hop. Whether the claims hold any weight or not, one thing is clear: Bleek isn’t letting them tarnish his accomplishments.
