Jay-Z Laments Effect Of Rape Lawsuit On His And Beyoncé's Kids: 'My Only Heartbreak Is For My Family'

Jay-Z has spoken out after he and embattled rapper Sean "Diddy" Combs were accused of raping a 13-year-old girl in a civil lawsuit filed by an unidentified woman.

The father of three is the first big-name celebrity to be officially named in connection to Diddy's crimes by Texas lawyer Tony Buzbee, who represents over 120 alleged victims.

Now, Jay-Z has called out the lawsuit, accusing Tony Buzbee and his client of "blackmail" while sharing how difficult things would be for his and Beyoncé's children.

Jay-Z, real name, Shawn Corey Carter, has officially been named as the alleged rape accomplice of Diddy.

An unknown woman, identified as "Jane Doe" in legal documents, refiled a lawsuit, claiming both rappers sexually assaulted her at a VMA afterparty in 2000.

However, Jay-Z has slammed the accusations as attorney Buzbee's attempt to blackmail him.

"My lawyer received a blackmail attempt, called a demand letter, from a 'lawyer' named Tony Buzbee. What he had calculated was the nature of these allegations and the public scrutiny would make me want to settle," the rapper said in a lengthy statement shared online. "No sir, it had the opposite effect! It made me want to expose you for the fraud you are in a VERY public fashion. So no, I will not give you ONE RED PENNY!!"

Jay-Z continued, "These allegations are so heinous in nature that I implore you to file a criminal complaint, not a civil one!! Whomever would commit such a crime against a minor should be locked away, would you not agree? These alleged victims would deserve real justice if that were the case."

He further noted that he had done "a bit of research" on Buzbee, claiming that the lawyer seems to "have a pattern of these types of theatrics."

"I have no idea how you have come to be such a deplorable human Mr. Buzbee, but I promise you I have seen your kind many times over. I'm more than prepared to deal with your type. You claim to be a marine?! Marines are known for their valor, you have neither honor nor dignity," Jay-Z added.

In his statement, Jay-Z brought up his wife and kids and how challenging the lawsuit would be for them.

"My only heartbreak is for my family," Jay-Z said. "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 added, "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."

Jay-Z shares three kids with famous singer Beyoncé: Daughter Blue Ivy Carter, 12, and twin boy and girl, Sir and Rumi Carter, 7.
