Hip-Hop journalist Elliott Wilson is calling for the media to stop interviewing Irv Gotti following the producer’s new Drink Champs interview.
“Who got the petition to end all Irv Gotti interviews? Sign me up!” he tweeted.
In the interview, Irv claimed he and Fat Joe hadn’t squashed their beef over his Ashanti remarks. He also said the success of Roc-A-Fella was down to Jay-Z and not Dame Dash.
“I don’t think Jay likes Dame,. Did I say something that people don’t know already?” he said.
Irv added: “Jay didn’t need nobody. [Dame Dash] started Roc-A-Fella with Jay and Biggs, so he should get credited. I’m saying the making of the records, I don’t know what you want me to say. Jay didn’t need nobody. Jay was picking the beats, Jay was rapping over the beats, Jay was making things. It was all Hov. Dame was along for the ride. It was a great ride.”
Was Dame just along for the ride?
