Jay-Z Claims Now Dismissed Rape Case Cost Him $20M In Lost Income; Was Timed To Embarrass Daughter Blue Ivy At ‘Mufasa’ Premiere


Jay-Z claims now dismissed rape of a minor case cost him millions in biz opportunities & tried to shame him with Beyonce & Blue Ivy

The lawsuit accusing Jay-Z and the currently incarcerated Sean “ Diddy ” Combs of repeatedly raping a minor in 2000 after the MTV VMAs was dismissed on Valentines’ Day, but the bitter relationship between the ‘Hard Knock Life (Ghetto Anthem)’ rapper and attorney Tony Buzbee rages on, for now. “I was harshly criticized by others for accompanying my daughter to the premiere of her movie a day after Mr. Buzbee filed the Jane Doe lawsuit against me,” Jay-Z said last week of the full tilt LA December 9 debut of the Barry Jenkins directed Mufasa: The Lion King that he was at with Blue Ivy and spouse Beyoncé. Having said that, with all the citations of threats, alleged multiple victims, strong arming by Buzbee for “something of substance” from Jay-Z for his clients and attendance at big NFL games and the Grammys by the rapper and Beyoncé in recent weeks, this could all be DOA now with the rape case against Carter and Combs over.
