Dame Dash is threatening to sue several of his former collaborators and legal adversaries for $100 million in a civil RICO lawsuit, escalating his years-long feud over ownership and credit disputes related to his film and business ventures.
According to court filings from the Southern District of New York, Dash sent a formal notice on September 17, 2025, announcing his intent to sue a group including filmmaker Josh Webber, producer Tony White, actress Claudia Jordan, attorney Christopher Brown, and others. In the letter, Dash accuses the parties of “fraud, perjury, theft of intellectual property, defamation, tortious interference, harassment, and financial manipulation,” claiming he has suffered more than $100 million in damages.
Dash alleges that he conceived, financed, and directed The List, later retitled Dear Frank, but was cut out of the project and never compensated. He claims the film’s producers and legal representatives conspired to misappropriate his work, remove his credits, and defame him publicly.
In the same demand letter, Dash also accuses attorney Chris Brown of orchestrating “fraudulent litigation” through multiple coordinated lawsuits designed to damage his reputation and finances, ultimately forcing him into bankruptcy. He claims that Brown and others manipulated his assets, including his equity in Roc-A-Fella Inc., and interfered with his legal representation in order to trigger a default judgment.
The filing also details Dash’s grievances over alleged business misappropriation in a cannabis venture with Larry Smith, who Dash says excluded him from profits tied to a strain he developed with Cam’ron called “Pink Mink.”
Dash’s letter demands that the accused parties issue public retractions, cease all defamatory activity, provide profit accountings from his projects, and pay $100 million within 14 days or face a federal RICO lawsuit.
The fiery notice comes as Dash remains embroiled in multiple ongoing court battles. Just days after his RICO threat, attorneys for Webber and Muddy Water Pictures filed a letter with the court urging that proceedings continue against Dash’s company, Poppington LLC, despite Dash’s bankruptcy filing. The plaintiffs are seeking to sell Poppington’s film assets, including Honor Up and Too Honorable, and the album Welcome to Blackroc, through a U.S. Marshal auction, arguing that Dash has no legal authority to halt the sale.
In that same filing, attorney Christopher Brown alleged that Dash’s bankruptcy was a stalling tactic, noting that the entrepreneur had recently announced new ventures, including a distribution deal with Sony Music for his group Black Guns, a book deal with Simon & Schuster, and even the purchase of “new diamond dentures.”
Despite his legal woes, Dash has remained defiant, telling The Breakfast Club last month that he stands by his worth and refuses to let others “define” him financially.
If filed, Dash’s threatened lawsuit would mark one of the most explosive legal counters in his long-running feud with Webber and his former business associates.
