Jay-Z Breaks Silence On Sexual Assault Lawsuit In Rare Interview: ‘I Was Angry’

Jay-Z is opening up in his most revealing interview ever. The hip-hop mogul spoke out for the first time about the 2024 sexual assault lawsuit brought against him by an anonymous accuser, who voluntarily dismissed the suit after an NBC report called details of the alleged incident into question. Speaking with GQ about the mental and emotional toll caused by the ordeal, Jay explained why he was left “heartbroken” and “angry” and refused to take a settlement. And, the dad of three reflects on daughter Blue Ivy Carter going viral as a dancer for mom Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter tour, and the moment she left him in tears with a “priceless” shoutout.
