Martin Shkreli has posted a threatening video calling out Ghostface Killah for comments he made about the disgraced pharma exec's purchase of a one-of-a-kind Wu-Tang Clan album, with one of Shkreli's goons saying he will become "a ghost for real" if he speaks ill of Shkreli again.
In the clip, which was posted to TMZ, Shkreli also demands an apology letter from Killah, whom he refers to as Dennis, his birth name.
"At the end of the day, I'm very sorry for you. You're an old man -- an old man that's lost his relevance, and you're trying to claim the spotlight from my spotlight. That's not going to work, Ghost-Dennis. In fact, I think that if you ever say some dumb sh*t again, this album, this Shaolin, I'm going to erase all your sh*t from this album. I'm going to erase you from the record books."
He added: "Ghost, stop pretending, stop acting, stop lying. Be real, as your video once said, and uh, don't ever f*cking mention my name again, or there will be more of a price to pay than just this video."
Ghostface Killah had recently been approached by TMZ and asked about Shkreli, whom he almost instantly called a "sh*thead." Ghostface said he would like Shkreli to release the one-of-a-kind Once Upon a Time in Shaolin album for the public to hear.
In a recent interview, Shkreli, who became notorious for hiking the price of an AIDS drug to over $700 per pill, claimed that he either wanted to destroy the album or hide an audio loop in a faraway place. Shkreli was arrested for securities fraud late last year.
Method Man, Raekwon and RZA have all made comments about the album, with the consensus being that they would now like people to hear the album that Shkreli bought at auction for $2 million. All four Wu-Tang members had originally stipulated that the buyer of the album could not release it for 88 years.
