Lupe Fiasco wants Drake to step up and buy Dame Dash's one-third share of JAY-Z's iconic album, Reasonable Doubt. The veteran music executive announced that the share is for sale and asked for inquiries on Instagram on Saturday. In the comments section of the post, Fiasco popped up to suggest that the Toronto rapper step up to protect the legendary project.
"@champagnepapi will keep it safe for generations to come," Lupe wrote. "This is grail and influenced an innumerable amount of rappers to see it peddle such a lack of grace genuinely hurts my feelings a little bit. But also on savages sh*t f*ck it…either donate it to a museums for safekeeping or seriously let Drake make an offer so he can put in where it needs to be. Or just keep the s**t OG you should be infinitely proud of this. Without it there is no me as I am and I'm sure other MC's will agree."

Dame Dash was previously reportedly ordered to sell his one-third share of Roc-a-Fella Records to cover a judgment regarding a lawsuit he lost to film producer Josh Webber. In his latest Instagram post, Dame shared the cover work for the 1996 album and added in the caption: "This s**t is for sale 1/3 … only real inquiries only." Check out the post on Instagram below.
