Damon Dash has a major beef with producer and director Lee Daniels. According to the former music mogul, Daniels owes him $2 million. 

In an Instagram post, Dame said that he loaned the Empire creator that amount so he could get started in the film business. Dash also posted a video in which he approaches Daniels about the debt and he definitely looked heated.

"I need to know what are you doing about this? 'Cause we about to issue another lawsuit and I'm going public about it," says Dame in the clip. "As a black man, I gave you money that you needed, so how you not gonna give me my money? $2 million dollars, bro. That's like working capital. You told me you was gonna give me my money in a month. You wrong, man."

Daniels conceded he was at fault.

"I know I'm wrong," said Daniels in response. "Damon, let me give you my phone number, and we'll have a discussion, alight? Damon, I'm gonna give you your money."

In the video's caption, Dame calls Daniels a "culture vulture" for not paying him and says "see you in court".

At this time, Daniels hasn't commented on Dame's video.

Do you think Dame will ever see that money?
