“My lawyer received a blackmail attempt, called a cease and desist letter, from a 'lawyer' named Tony Buzbee. What he calculated was that the nature of these accusations and the media pressure would push me to accept an amicable settlement. No sir, it had the opposite effect! It made me want to expose you publicly for the con man you êtes, very visibly. So no, I will not give you a single cent!”, Beyoncé's husband first wrote.

“These accusations are so odious in nature that I beg you: file a criminal complaint, not a civil complaint! Anyone who commits such a crime against a minor should be imprisoned, you don't you do not agree ? These supposed victims would deserve real justice if that were the case. This lawyer, on whom I made some research, seems to have a history of this kind of staging !”, also added Jay Z.

“My only sorrow is for my family. My wife and I are going to have to explain to our children, one of whom is at an age where his friends will surely see the press and ask questions questions about the nature of these allegations, the cruelty and greed of people. I mourn another loss of innocence. Children should not have to to go through this at their young age. It is unfair to have &trying to understand inexplicable levels of malevolence intended to destroy families and the human spirit“, has finally concluded the famous American rapper. For the moment, Jay Z remains presumed innocent of the facts of which he is accused.
