Offset Furiously Addresses J. Prince For Discussing His Relationship With Takeoff
J. Prince is apparently doing a media run surrounding Takeoff’s death. As the Prince family continue to face backlash following Take’s passing, they appeared on Gillie and Wallo 267’s Million Dollaz Worth Of Game podcast. Though the Prince family tried to clear their name from the negative press, J Prince criticized Offset for not being present in Take’s life around the time of his passing.
“This Offset dude. I ain’t gon’ leave him out because I’m real like this, you now? N***as be throwin’ rocks and hidin’ their hand,” Prince said on the podcast. “I don’t like them type of individuals. And the truth of the matter is, one can dance and different things in front of different cameras and all kinds of shit… You wasn’t really right there with Takeoff when he was alive. So, for you to be taking these positions you are taking – and I got people everywhere so I hear all kinds of things. I’mma just say this to you – don’t ever put me in a position where I got to defend myself.”
By now, it’s no secret that Offset’s relationship with Quavo, at least, was kind of rocky. As a result, he became distant from Takeoff in the public eye throughout the roll out for Only Built For Infinity Linx. However, Take’s death undoubtedly impacted Offset, whether or not he was around the late rapper.
Shortly after the interview with J Prince went viral, Offset slammed the Rap-A-Lot founder in a message shared to Instagram. On his Story, ‘Set expressed outrage at Prince’s comments, specifically the audacity to comment on his relationship with Takeoff. “I don’t know what the f*ck y’all got going on. You speaking on my real brother. How dare one of y’all n***as speak on me and Take relationship, n***a? I don’t know you n***as from a can of paint,” he said. Moreover, he called out the Prince family for the series of interviews they’ve done to discuss Takeoff’s passing.
“You ain’t think about his momma? You ain’t think about the family, n***a? We ain’t said nothing,” he continued. “Nobody said nothing but you n***as. Who y’all n***as think y’all n***as is? John Gotti, n***a? Ain’t nobody going for none of that. I ain’t standin’ for none of that sh*t y’all n***as talkin’ about either.”
Additionally, Offset stated that Prince’s comments derived from things he hard from the grapevine, rather than the source itself. “And, if you heard something from me, I’ma tell you it’s gon’ come from me. Call my phone. Y’all n***as going off he-say-she-say.”

Megan Thee Stallion Orders Depositions for Carl Crawford and J. Prince in Her Contract Suit
Megan Thee Stallion is taking Carl Crawford and J. Prince to court. TMZ reports Thee Stallion is taking the two men to court to sit in depositions in regards to the lawsuit over her contract.
In court docs filed on Tuesday, Thee Stallion’s lawyers will ask the two men about their work in regards to the contract. Crawford owns 1501 Entertainment, where Thee Stallion was signed. Prince owns Rap-A-Lot Records and reportedly advises Crawford. Thee Stallion dropped her latest album Traumazine a couple of weeks ago, fulfilling her agreement with 1501 Entertainment.
J. Prince is due for his deposition on Oct. 24 and Crawford on Oct. 25. The depositions will be recorded on video.
Megan Thee Stallion is suing 1501 Entertainment, citing she completed her contract with the Something For Thee Hotties and Traumizine albums. Crawford and 1501 are attempting to say the projects aren’t albums. Thee Stallion is also seeking at least $1 million in damages in the legal split.
Ahead of the depositions, J. Prince issued a lengthy statement about the state of their agreement. Megan would fire back. You can see those words below.

How Is J. Prince Connected To Megan Thee Stallion?
Soon after the release of her new album Trauamazine, Megan Thee Stallion’s issues with her label 1501 Certified Entertainment have reared their heads once again. The Houston artist and 1501 CEO, former MLB outfielder Carl Crawford, first went back and forth on social media back in early 2020, when Megan claimed her music was being blocked from release and she wasn’t getting paid. Crawford said she was lying, that she was signed to a generous contract, and that he has been paying upfront for all of her shows with no contribution on her end. However, Crawford isn’t the only opposition Megan is facing in her current lawsuit.
Rap-A-Lot founder J Prince, who allegedly advises Crawford on business dealings according to Megan, shared a lengthy post on Tuesday on Instagram, in which he addressed many of the “Plan B” artist’s claims. “For years we have stood by quietly as MTS and her mgmt at Roc Nation has lied about Carl Crawford and his 1501 label,” he wrote. “The truth is that Carl discovered, developed and fully financed MTS early in her career which led to a life changing distribution agreement for her with 300 Entertainment.”
He also referred to her “generous contract,” where she allegedly earns 40% of the label’s profit, which he deems “substantially more than the customary record royalty that a new artist receives from a record label.” Finally, he countered Megan allegations with some of his own. “In addition MTS has consistently and intentionally breached her 1501 contract with impunity for years in ways that are too numerous to list here.”
