Jay Z denies his latest song was written about Kanye West

Jay Z has said his latest song is not aimed at Kanye
West.
In an interview with Rap Radar, the rapper spoke
about allegations that his song Kill Jay Z is directed
at his one-time collaborator.
The track, from Jay Z's latest album 4:44, features
the lyrics: "You gave him 20 million without blinkin'.
He gave you 20 minutes on stage, f*** was he
thinkin'?"
It has been suggested the lyrics allude to West's
televised stage rant last year , in which he took aim
at Jay Z and his wife Beyonce, saying he was "hurt"
because their children never played together.

"It's not even about a Kanye diss," Jay Z told Rap
Radar. "It's not a diss, I'm talking to myself the
whole time."
In the interview, which was broadcast over the
weekend on Jay Z's streaming platform, Tidal, the
rapper explained he "got hurt because this person
was talking about you on stage".
"But what really hurt me was, you can't bring my kid
or my wife into it," he said.
"Kanye's my little brother. He's talked about me 100
times. He made a song called Big Brother. We've
gotten past bigger issues. But you brought my family
into it, now it's a problem with me. That's a real, real
problem. And he knows it's a problem."
The rapper also spoke about 2014 reports that
Beyonce's sister Solange Knowles attacked him in a
lift.
"We had one disagreement ever. Before and after
we've been cool," he said.
"She's like my sister. I will protect her. That's my
sister, not my sister-in-law. My sister. Period."
