As you've probably noticed, Funk Volume has been going through some things lately. It started the first week of January, when Hopsin revealed his desire to leave FV, citing issues between himself and the label's co-founder, Dame Ritter. Following that, Jarren Benton revealed that he was leaving Funk Volume to link up with Master P and No Limit. The label wasn't have the best week.
Today the drama continues, and things aren't looking up for FV just yet. Hopsin took to his Facebook page last night to declare Funk Volume "officially dead," putting blame on Dame Ritter.
The full Facebook post reads,
Funk volume is officially dead now thanks to the monster Damien Ritter. There is nobody else to blame at all. I have officially separated myself from everything and I am fully independent now. It's very sad but idiots like dame wanna control too Much and now he end up destroying a great fuckin team. Having a crew like FV has been my vision since I was 14 years old and this man just destroyed it. Jarren, Dizzy, Swizzz, Dj Hoppa and I are all still on good terms. They will forever be my brothers and I support them in whatever they do. I will let u guys know the full story soon. You know ama keep it RAW for real. Ain't no holdin back. Im so sorry to all the FV fans. There's a brighter future though.
On Instagram, the rapper asked for fans to alert him of anyone they know who has a FV tattoo-- "I got something real special for youguys. You won't be ignored by me," he says.
We reached out to Dame Ritter for comment, but we haven't heard back yet. We'll keep you posted.
