Roc Nation is not playing with bloggers who float the theory that the company’s founder, JAY-Z, hired a hitman to attack rapper Tory Lanez in a California prison.
Tory, 32, was shanked multiple times by an inmate already serving life in prison for murder. The wounded rapper was airlifted to a hospital in Bakersfield, where he was stabilized and treated for 14 stab wounds.
Tory was transported back to prison last week. He is currently resting in the prison infirmary. Tory is serving 10 years in a California prison for shooting fellow rapper Megan Thee Stallion in both feet in 2020.
Megan signed to Roc Nation in 2019 to handle her management deals. She is a personal friend of founder JAY-Z as well as being mentored by him.
JAY-Z was dismayed to learn that social media bloggers were blaming him for the near-fatal stabbing of Tory Lanez.
One X user posted screenshots of a takedown notice for a post he made alleging that Roc Nation was behind Tory Lanez’s stabbing last week.
The user wrote: “I made a post on Instagram about Diseree and Roc Nation being behind Tory Lanez getting stabbed, and they sent in the lawyers to get the post taken down.”
The user is lucky that he only received a takedown notice and not a lawsuit summons for his reckless behavior.
One X user wrote: “So you lied and they called you out. Okay, what’s new? SATAN, TOU ARE ALWAYS LYING AND PUSHING FALSE NARRATIVES.”
Another user wrote: “Actually, should be arrested for stupid allegations like that. You deserve to be locked up.”
