In a new Instagram post, Dame Dash accused Empire director Lee Daniels of borrowing $2 million and refusing to pay it back.

The video shows footage of them bickering over the money during an event. In the video, Daniels tells Dame he’ll repay him, repeatedly telling him that they would discuss the situation later.
“He promised I get my money back in months…then he makes Precious and goes missing so he doesn’t have to pay me…then The Butler…Empire…same sh*t. Why does this dude feel like he doesn’t have to pay me?” he wrote on Instagram.

Dame says that the money allowed Daniels jumpstart his career as a director. The loans seems to be nearly a decade old, as Precious dropped in 2009.

Daniels has not responded to Dame’s accusation.
