Summary

Jay-Z’s lawyer is claiming there’s no friendship between he and Diddy, despite a paper trail dating back decades. Hats on, critical minds open, seat belts fastened. Buckle up friends because we’re coming in hot with everything you need to know (except for the history of Jay-Z and Beyoncé because that deserves its own episode).

Hey, everyone. So we record these as close to when they air as possible, so we stay current.

0:04.9

But there were some updates following our recording. So stay tuned to the end of the episode for some of those.

0:24.4

We're going in there, these y'all. We're going in there, these y'all. Welcome to the deep dive hosted by Jack and Lex. We have got quite the episode for you. We're doing a deep dive of Jay-Z. Holy moly. I feel like this is one that we've been putting off. I was thinking about this before we started recording because there's just so much. There's so much. We want to get it all in an episode.

0:58.8

It's like almost too overwhelming to even start recording or start researching.

1:03.2

Yeah. So just because all of these allegations or this allegation came out, we're like,

1:07.5

2:18.4

against him in October. So he's representing over 200 people, male and female, who were
