A few months after calling out the National Football League (NFL), rapper Jay Z and Roc Nation amidst all the controversies surrounding the league owners and their stand on Police brutality and the whole kneeling and not kneeling by some of their players during the National Anthem, has announced a business partnership deal with the League owners.
The rapper and his company Roc Nation had on Wednesday announced that they are going to become part-owner of an NFL team, as they promised fans of the full details of the agreements soon.
According to the report by TMZ, an inside source in Roc Nation Sports with direct knowledge of the deal said tell Jay is going to have a “significant ownership interest” in an NFL team, but refused to name the team, but “it is going to happen in the near future.”
The source also told TMZ that Jay Z and Roc Nation want to become a part-owner “because he’s a huge fan, already has a sports business and wants to continue to be a change agent for the NFL.”
Although since the news broke he has come under huge criticism, some of which he seems to have addressed, even if the answers he gave for partnering with the NFL, especially given the fact that the same organisation are allegedly behind Colin Kaepernick’s not having a job, it is clear Jay Z is all about the business and nothing more.
