NFL’s Roger Goodell Says Jay-Z Relationship Is “Not Changing” Amid Rape Accusation

With less than two months until Super Bowl LIX, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has addressed the league’s partnership with Roc Nation amid the rape allegation against Jay-Z. On Wednesday, Goodell broke his silence on the accusation that the 24x Grammy winner raped a 13-year-old girl in 2000 in a...

I don't know. It's 24 years ago, and it's just an allegation. Anything remotely convincing yet?

Its a tricky thing because anyone can come out and make accusations. Her claim should 100 percent be taken seriously and investigated. But to take action assuming its true absent any supporting evidence at all ... that's not exactly right.

Put JayZ in the corner until everything is resolved? Seems simple enough, no one is going to notice anyway. I don't even know what the connection jayz and the nfl have (could care less to boot) So, who cares if they just cut bait and run.

This country doesn't care about that kind of stuff. Why should the NFL?

ETA: I haven't even read the actual accusation, and I also have never met the guy, so I obviously don't know what the truth is here.

Jay Z runs the halftime shows...if this someone less high profile like a player?

Nobody seems to mind that Mike Tyson is a convicted rapist.

Jay Z was a scumbag before the allegations. The shoe fits

 

[evergreen]

We just voted a rapist into the White House. No one cares.

 

[Cyrus12]

So maybe being a rapist in the USA get rewarded?

Normal NFL policy is to let the legal situation play out rather than preempt it.

This (Diddy stuff) is going to go on for years.

But I'm not sure Kendrick Lamar should be punished for something Jay-Z (maybe) did when Kendrick was like 12 years old.

Going to be interesting to see the show Kendrick will do.

good kid maad city, excellent album! And Kendrick’s catalog of songs is good—does he appeal to a mass audience of mainly pop music and country music supporters, probably not so much, but being as Kendrick is the top hip hop artist of 2024, Kendrick can either make or break Goodell’s selection for a hip hop artist (Jay-Z) to lead his Super Bowl shows.

Going to be an interesting show! Looking forward to seeing how Kendrick performs when our Seahawks are at halftime in the biggest game (joke here)….

Ya, Kendrick is an odd choice. I think it's awesome. He's probably the least pop-focused artist to do it in a long time.

He's certainly got some catchy tunes, but he's two parts literary for each part pulp, you know? There's PhD candidates out there writing about Butterfly. Probably Good Kid too.

Who?

You know! The soon to be 51st state!
