In a revealing conversation, Beanie Sigel has backed up Dame Dash’s controversial assertion that JAY-Z secretly wrote lyrics for Memphis Bleek. Speaking to The Art of Dialogue, Sigel confirmed that Hov did indeed assist Bleek with his verses, particularly on tracks featuring all three artists.
When confronted with a clip of Dash discussing the topic, Sigel responded affirmatively, stating, “Did he write for Bleek? Yeah, man, of course. To help Bleek out on a lot of shit. I mean, you can hear it.” He went on to recite a verse from Bleek’s “You, Me, Him and Her” from Dynasty: Roc La Familia, suggesting that JAY-Z’s influence was evident in Bleek’s work. “He always cheated for Bleek. He had to cheat for Bleek, especially if us three was on a record together,” Sigel added, underscoring the competitive nature of their collaborations.
However, Sigel clarified that while JAY-Z contributed to some of Bleek’s lyrics, he did not write all of them. “That’s a lie. He ain’t write all of Bleek’s shit,” Sigel explained, acknowledging that JAY-Z’s involvement was significant enough to help elevate Bleek’s contributions on certain tracks.
Dame Dash’s initial claim came during his own interview, where he emphasized that Bleek’s reliance on JAY-Z’s writing contributed to his struggles to assert himself within Roc-A-Fella. Dash provocatively stated, “If Jay retired, that meant he was out of business as well,” hinting at the precarious position Bleek found himself in without JAY-Z’s support.
In response to the claims, Memphis Bleek took to social media to express disbelief, sharing his thoughts with fans. “He wilding right now bro,” he wrote, while also playfully suggesting that if he was considered “whack,” then that reflected poorly on JAY-Z as well.
As this drama unfolds, JAY-Z himself has yet to comment on the allegations, leaving fans and industry insiders to speculate on the dynamics at play within Roc-A-Fella Records. With Sigel’s endorsement of Dash’s comments, the conversation around ghostwriting, loyalty, and artistic integrity in hip-hop continues to gain momentum, making it a hot topic in the community.
