    Geda K says Memphis Bleek cost him $1 million record deal

    The former Get Low artist says Bleek stayed silent while Dame Dash offered $1 million for his contract, and he’s done staying quiet about it

    Geda K went on MReckTV this week and put two decades of silence on the table. The former Get Low artist blamed Memphis Bleek for his career never taking off, threatened to smack him, and told Bleek’s associate to stay out of his comments. The 35-minute interview was posted yesterday.

    Last month, Geda K did an interview on DA M.E.T.H LAB. This is where Geda K first told the story of a meeting with Bleek and Dame Dash. According to Geda K, Dame offered Bleek $1 million and the Get Low imprint in exchange for Geda K’s contract. Bleek, in Geda K’s telling, said nothing. Geda K left the studio and never came back. Bleek responded to the clip on X with a one-line proverb: “that’s the wave I guess bro I can bring you to the water I can’t make you drink tho.”

    The $1 Million Offer Geda K Says Bleek Sat Through

    During Geda K’s appearance on DA M.E.T.H LAB last month, the host asked him to explain what happened to Get Low Records. Geda said he was involved in a meeting that included himself, Memphis Bleek, and Dame Dash.

    In his telling, Dame asked Bleek if he was seriously interested in launching the Get Low label. According to Geda, Bleek said he was indeed serious and asked what he needed to do. Geda K claims Dame Dash told Memphis Bleek if he brought Geda to him so he could sign him to Roc-A-Fella Records, he’d give Bleek $1 million and would launch Get Low Records as a Roc-A-Fella imprint.

    However, Geda K said Bleek did not respond when Dame made the offer. After that, Geda said Dame left the room and then looked at Geda and said “That’s what I wanted you to see.” This implied that Memphis Bleek never intended to put Geda K on and that Dame knew this. According to Geda K, Dame Dash wanted him to see the exchange.

    Geda K also re-explained the Get Low and early Roc-A-Fella street circle timeline. Get Low was ahead of later Roc affiliates, yet Memphis Bleek said the reason Get Low never happened was due to Roc-A-Fella breaking up. In turn, Geda said: “we were there before them all.” This was in reference to State Property and Dipset. Beanie Sigel operated State Property and Cam’ron operated Dipset aka Diplomat Records. Both labels operated as Roc-A-Fella imprints. So, Geda asked listeners to weigh that chronology.

    In the clip, Geda angrily explained that Roc-A-Fella must’ve broken up before State Property and Dipset launched. After Geda told the story, he challenged Memphis Bleek to tell this story. When Geda said he left the studio after Dame’s offer, he said he never went back.

    Escalating to Direct Threats on MReckTV

    The MReckTV interview is where the story escalated from a twenty-year-old grievance into a current beef. Geda K began by addressing an associate of Bleek’s who had been in his comments, telling him his name “should never come out your mouth” and that he had nothing to say to him. He referenced the man’s shooting history in North Carolina, saying he “died twice” and never got back at anyone who did it.

    From there he turned to Bleek directly. He said he had been quiet for two decades while people around Bleek told lies about him. Geda addressed two specific claims: that he could not get a Jay-Z verse done, and that he had gone and gotten his own lawyer for the Roc-A-Fella deal. Geda K denied both. He said Ty-Ty got the lawyer, and that he had never had trouble getting a verse done. Then, he pushed back on the idea that Bleek helped him, saying “we helped Bleek” and that Bleek did not help them with anything.

    His strongest lines were directed at Bleek’s associate. “I catch you on [Lenox] Avenue, I’mma smack the […] out of you,” he said. He called the man a “male concubine” for Bleek and told him to get out of his mother’s house. After that, he said Bleek’s career stalled because of the company he kept. “That’s why Bleek career where it’s at right now, right at the ground level, cuz he hung with [people] like you,” Geda K said.

    He closed by saying he had been quiet for twenty years and was done. “Y’all woke up a sleeping giant that y’all didn’t never want to wake up in 20 years,” he said. “Y’all wanted me to be quiet cuz I know everything.”

    Bring a Person to the Water, but Can’t Make Them Drink

    When a third-party X user posted that Geda K was “shooting down” Bleek and expressed disappointment that the two would be in public conflict. So, Bleek replied: “that’s the wave I guess bro I can bring you to the water I can’t make you drink tho.”

    The reply does not confirm, deny, or re-narrate the Dame Dash meeting. The metaphor treats Geda K as someone who was given access and opportunity but did not take it, rather than as someone who was traded away. Bleek does not name Dame, does not mention a million dollars, and does not engage the specifics Geda K raised on MReckTV. Instead, he washed his hands of the situation.

    Memphis Bleek de-escalated the situation by not offering a direct response to Geda K’s claims. Previously, a year ago, Bleek was asked by a fan about Geda K. Seeing how his podcast was new and rising, the fan said Bleek should have Geda come on the Roc Solid Podcast. That idea was something Bleek seemed enthusiastic about, as he said “definitely gotta get Geda up there him and H.” The “H” was in reference to H Money Bags, another Get Low artist.

    Who is Geda K?

    Geda K is a Brooklyn rapper from the Marcy Projects in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn. In a freestyle, earlier this year he identified himself as “G to K from Marcy Place on the Flushing side.” He was an artist signed to Get Low Records in the period between Bleek’s second and third albums. However, he never released a major-label solo album through Get Low, Roc-A-Fella, or Def Jam.

    During that period of time, Geda K was a featured or camp rapper on posse and street records. He had verses on DJ Clue’s “M.A.R.C.Y.” also featuring Memphis Bleek from Clue’s The Professional album in 1998, DJ Envy’s “Brooklyn” with Memphis Bleek in 2002, and Memphis Bleek’s “1, 2 Y’all” with Jay-Z and Lil’ Cease on Bleek’s M.A.D.E. in 2003. On that record, Geda K’s verse shouts out “Get Low and the Roc” and he dubs himself as “the young horse.”

    Additionally, Geda K was on the original “Murda Murda” Jayo Felony-diss version alongside Jay-Z and Memphis Bleek. The commercial M.A.D.E. version replaced Geda K’s verse with Beanie Sigel. Also, the song changed lyrics so they no longer targeted Jayo Felony. That replacement is one of the few documented instances in which Geda K’s recorded presence on a Roc-adjacent record was later overwritten.

    Fans Sympathize with Geda K Over This Experience

    Most of the fans treated Geda K’s story as a long-overdue accounting of how the label’s second-tier imprints functioned. As a result, there were those who questioned the two-decade delay. Supporters pointed to his documented credits and his presence on early Roc-adjacent records. Skeptics noted that walking out after Bleek’s silence may have closed the only path that existed.

    Comment threads under the interview also argued that the deal, if executed as described, would have stripped Get Low of its main artist. So, that would have left Bleek with an imprint that had no profitable history, made the imprint liable for recouping a million-dollar advance, and then required Geda K himself to recoup whatever budget Roc-A-Fella gave him. On that view, Bleek’s silence was recognition that the deal was structurally unfavorable.

    Others focused on Bleek’s reply. The “bring you to the water” line was treated by some as a graceful deflection. However, by others, it was viewed as a dodge. There were some who called for Dame Dash to weigh in. They said that his confirmation or denial would immediately change the weight of the story. Comment threads on MReckTV clips also amplified Geda K’s threats against Bleek’s associate. Some users treating the threats as serious and others treated it as podcast rhetoric.

    Separate from last month’s interview, Geda K has been active in 2026. His work includes battle-rap appearances and freestyles that mention Brooklyn and Marcy. Back in July, he had exchange with an artist named Green Double. In that exchange, Green Double said he did not want to “hear about Bleek” and positioned himself as also affiliated with “the Roc.” Viewers in those comment sections repeatedly identified Geda K as “the Geda K that used to run with Memphis Bleek.” Those viewers were proven right.

    The Actual History of Bleek’s Get Low Records

    Get Low’s commercially documented releases are Memphis Bleek’s own albums. Bleek’s albums were marketed as Get Low/Roc-A-Fella and distributed by Def Jam. Between The Understanding and M.A.D.E., the label is described as having signed Geda K and former Junior M.A.F.I.A. member Lil’ Cease. Later names attached to the roster include Livin’ Proof, Latif, H. Money Bags, and Calico. Get Low did not become a stand-alone hit factory on the scale of State Property or The Diplomats.

    In the early 2000s, Roc-A-Fella was still jointly associated with Jay-Z, Dame Dash, and Biggs Burke and was building satellite crews. Get Low was Bleek’s parallel attempt. Dame Dash has, in later years, repeatedly criticized Bleek’s work rate and commercial follow-through. In 2023, Dame said people close to Bleek were taking his publishing and that Dame obtained a lawyer and accountant for him. In 2024, Dame said Jay-Z wrote a substantial amount of Bleek’s material and that Bleek lacked the capacity to run Roc-A-Fella if Jay stepped back. Bleek publicly dismissed the ghostwriting claim.

    Those Dame-Bleek exchanges are part of the same long Roc-A-Fella oral history into which Geda K’s story now sits. They do not independently confirm or deny the specific million-dollar offer Geda K described.

    Final Thought

    The commercially remembered Roc story is Jay-Z, Dame, Biggs, then State Property and Dipset. Get Low occupies a thinner layer.

    If accepted as accurate, Geda K’s account describes a major-label pattern of the era. First, the parent company offers the imprint owner cash and formal recognition in exchange for the imprint’s one transferable artist. Then, the imprint becomes a shell, the artist becomes a direct signing with his own recoupment clock, and the original mentor is left with a logo and a recoupable advance.

    Whether Bleek’s silence was calculation, freeze, or refusal by inaction cannot be established from the public record.
