Video After The Jump
As most of you know by now pharmaceutical executive, Martin Shkreli, bought the only copy of Wu Tang Clan's $2 million album titled "Once Upon a Time Shaolin" last year.
There have been rumblings that members of the group were not happy Shkreli was the one who purchased the CD when they found out about him skyrocketing the price of Daraprim, an essential antiparasitic drug for AIDS patients and pregnant mothers.
TMZ caught up with Ghostface Killah to get his opinion.
Ghost referred to Shkreli as "shithead" and criticized his business practices.
"You don't take an AIDS pill that you have for like $7 and make it like $800. You don't do that like that. I don't care if he bought the Wu Tang whatever, whatever, whatever," Ghost said. "I don't even know him, but when I heard what he did with the AIDS [medication] that's not right."
The rapper said it would be his preference for "Once Upon a Time in Shaolin" to be available to the public instead of in Shkreli's possession.
Shkreli, who could spend 20 years in jail, after being charged by U.S. prosecutors in December with securities fraud conspiracy, securities fraud and wire fraud conspiracy, took to Twitter to offer Ghostface a response.
"Ghost mad that Shaolin outsold his last 5 albums… dude’s a non-profit rapper. Calls himself ironman, but sounds rusty AF," he wrote.
