NFL Makes Decision On Jay-Z Amid Rape Allegations

by

“Ok, I don’t know what’s going on, but are we gonna still have the Super Bowl? 😟I’m just asking for a friend!” That was the question that 50 Cent was demanding answer to following Jay-Z’s rape allegations. It came across as kind of a joke, but to be fair, a lot of people have been wondering the same. Moreover, some fans of the NFL have even been calling for them to sever their ties with Hov. “Hey @NFL Jay Z got a weird case why he’s still around?” one Twitter user quipped. “As a conservative white woman and mother of ten, I am not comfortable watching the Super Bowl this year knowing that Jay Z is so heavily involved with the @NFL as an organization,” another added.

It’s now been four days since the lawsuit initially only against Diddy was amended by the Jane Doe and her rep, Tony Buzbee. To recap, the woman is accusing Jay-Z of raping her back at an after-party following the 2000 MTV Music Video Awards. He’s since vehemently denied the allegations and has also called out Buzbee for these “heinous” acts. It’s worth noting that additional allegations have been coming in since December 8 as well.

With that said, what does all of this mean for Jay-Z’s Roc Nation partnership with the NFL? Will they actually drop their contract? Or will they stand pat and subsequently back him during this shocking series of events? Well, we now have an answer courtesy of AP sources close to matter.

“With the ongoing legal process, there’s no change to the relationship with Roc Nation and that includes the Super Bowl.” The person is remaining nameless due to it being a legal issue. With that now confirmed, it’s going to depend greatly on who you ask if this is good news or not. If things do come out about these allegations being true, then we could be having a very different discussion moving forward. But for the time being, Jay-Z’s ties with the NFL are safe, for now.
