Rapper Curtis James Jackson III, also known as 50 Cent, had a few words to say about Dame Dash’s financial situation. On December 30, Dash’s film company was auctioned off for nearly $100. In a now-deleted Instagram post, Curtis shared a screengrab of the headline, with the caption:“Damn $1 dollar He popped, they took his whole sh*t! when I first got on he said a mill was nothing @bransoncognac.”According to an exclusive report by The New York Post, the auction was aimed at covering the money he owed in his defamation lawsuits, which was roughly $1 million. However, at the auction, only one bidder turned up and bought the company for $100.50. Muddy Water Motion Pictures CEO Mike Muntaser said:“I think he’s a fool, man.”Speaking about Dame Dash, he also said:“He’s just a problem. He has an ego. I think he’s just bitter from where he was to where he is and he just blames everybody else and doesn’t look at himself in the mirror. For him being on a big stage with like Jay-Z and [Ye] why are your peers doing good, [being] constructive and you’re just playing games with others?”According to attorney Chris Brown, although many bidders offering thousands were expected to show, it didn’t happen. Brown said:“It’s more of an undertaking of what they viewed Dash’s work to be as opposed to anything else. Like, no one cares that you went to China. Mr. Dash. I guess I really don’t know what to make of that.”Earlier this year, Dame Dash declared himself bankrupt.Dame Dash talks about taxesIn September 2025, Dame Dash sat down for a conversation on The Breakfast Club. As the conversation rolled on, DJ Envy asked Dash:“As a businessman, entrepreneur, chairman, right? Boss. You go from having a huge value to being in the negative. How does that happen from being a boss? Explain it down. Break that down for people that follow you.”Dame Dash explained that he has $20 million in taxes. He then suggested that no person paid this much in taxes. As a result, Dash felt he shouldn’t be the first one. He added:“The problem with filing is black people don't file because they don't understand it. And that's why when you guys talk about things, I wish you'd really do your research.”Dame Dash explained that many wealthy people and families did not keep businesses or assets in their own names. Instead, they set things up through family offices. He said he filed paperwork because he had owed tens of millions of dollars in taxes, but that did not scare him, since earning that much money meant he had made a lot in the first place. He added that he could not repay such a large amount by working a regular job, so he had to keep investing to eventually pay it back. Because of tax liens placed on his finances years earlier, Dame Dash said nothing could be in his name, and his accounts had already been frozen. That was why, when people claimed he had no money in his accounts, he said he did not even have accounts he could use.
