Jay-Z releases furious statement denying allegations against him
According to a source, Jay-Z is currently staying elsewhere to focus on his legal case without disrupting his children's routine.
In a strongly worded statement, he vehemently denied the allegations, calling them "heinous".
The rapper further expressed how "unfair" it was that his family would also be impacted by the accusations.
He said, “My only heartbreak is for my family. My wife and I will have to sit our children down, one of whom is at the age where her friends will surely see the press and ask questions about the nature of these claims, and explain the cruelty and greed of people. I mourn yet another loss of innocence.”
He went on to say, “Children should not have to endure such at their young age. It is unfair to have to try to understand inexplicable degrees of malice meant to destroy families and human spirit.”
Concluding his statement, he added, “Only your network of conspiracy theorists, fake physics, will believe the idiotic claims you have levied against me that, if not for the seriousness surrounding harm to kids, would be laughable.”
