N.O.R.E. has delivered a special message intended for “Lame Dash,” best known, of course, as Dame Dash.
First, in an Instagram Stories update over the weekend, the Drink Champs co-host brought in a reference to Dash’s cousin, Clueless actress Stacey Dash.
“Lame Dash,” he wrote in reaction to Dash’s recent remarks about Jay-Z being named alongside Diddy in a vehemently disputed lawsuit. “More clueless than Stacey.”
Noreaga elaborated further in a video, also shared to IG, in which he again used the “Lame Dash” mockery. Interestingly, he underscored his criticism with multiple mentions of the respect he says he has for Dame.
“You be coming at me,” he said. “You think I don’t got time. I’m not like these other people. I’ve got time.”
From there, Noreaga noted the extent of his imminent travel plans, reminding Dash that these are “things you used to do” before continuing his Modelo-assisted message.
“No one’s trying to disrespect you,” he said. “We’re trying to show you love but you keep coming at everybody. If you got beef with one person, you’re supposed to keep that beef with one person. You’ve got beef with everybody around him. You became Lame Dash. We don’t wanna disrespect you and I’m trying not to as much as I can because I actually respect the shit out of you. But you became the lame Chatty Patty person that you said you’re against. Get your life together. My number’s the same.”
In a recent The Art of Dialogue interview, Dash mentioned Drink Champs while laying out what he argues should be Jay’s strategy moving forward.
“This is the first time he’s not getting a pass with white media,” Dash said. “He can control Black media because a lot of them either work or do business with him. But, you know, Drink Champs can’t get him out of this one, or even Charlamagne, because those are the guys that hold him down no matter what he does anyway. So he’s got to get to People magazine and Entertainment Tonight right now. They’re on his head.”
Dash has also spoken about the lawsuit in recent uploads to his America Nu Network channel, most recently in the one below.
Jay’s lawyer, Alex Spiro, held a press conference earlier this month during which he highlighted multiple inconsistencies in the accuser’s claims. Key during the press conference, and in other responses from Jay’s legal team in recent weeks, are criticisms specifically aimed at Tony Buzbee, the lawyer representing the accuser in the case. Previously, Jay called him a “fraud.” He has also accused Buzbee of extortion.
