DJ Funk Flex got dragged by a couple fans after posting an image with DJ Red Alert and YouTube’s Lyor Cohen on Tuesday, December 18th. Hours later, the legendary DJ hopped on the airwaves on Hot 97 to call out Dame Dash, who has previously called his friend Cohen a culture vulture.
“That ‘culture vulture’ word, I’m not letting that fly with me anymore,” Flex said. “Don’t apply pressure to me on the ‘gram for a friend that I post. I’m going to tell you about Lyor Cohen. He road managed for Run DMC. It’s over, no one is touching that,” Flex continued.
Dame has called many people culture vultures in the past, but Flex argues that Cohen did a lot to help advance his career.
“They cut you millions bro,” Flex explained. “They gave you a million-dollar budget for all the marketing. Def Jam Records made you bro. They changed your life. We’re gonna stop this ‘culture vulture’ talk. That’s the word you talk about your own failures. Dame Dash, I respect you for the utmost way. He helped me get out of a dark place. But bro, you are a liar. You lie because Jay-Z and Lyor aren’t on the gram to call you out on it.”
Apparently the Roc-a-Fella boss heard Funk Flex’s side and offered to discuss matters in person rather than on social media.
“Holla at me when you get a chance,” Dash wrote. “[I] prefer in person so we can speak like men but I doubt you’ll do that. Publicly live would be nice. Don’t make any excuses for not talking to me either be a man #chattypatty and turn your comments back on #doitfortheculture,” Dash wrote as the caption for his Instagram post.
Dame called Cohen a culture vulture after saying he didn’t know who he was on The Breakfast Club four months ago. “Who’s Dame Dash? You brought him up. I don’t even know him. You bring his name up, I don’t even know him. I don’t know him. I really don’t. I don’t know what to tell you,” Cohen said while on The Breakfast Club.
