take me through uh your name the origin of the name and uh where it started and to what it is today well my mother named me Shawn because when I was born her was her right mhm you want to know why there is no Vindication for me because for 4 years I've been screaming not just Diddy but Diddy and Jay-Z are monsters and the victim making machine kept going on Jay-Z has been notable by his silence since uh these charges were brought against Diddy why do you think that is because that's what he does he
starts little fires everywhere forces everyone involved to go and carry water while he sneaks away without a response that changes now Sean you must respond you have no choice oh boy so get this Jay-Z's ex-mistress is finally speaking out and she's not holding back in a shocking reveal she claims that she was forced to have an abortion by none other than Jay-Z himself yep you heard that right she's calling him a monster for what went down and she's not pulling any punches when it comes to spilling the tea this is definitely not the kind of
drama you expect from one of the biggest names in the game but here we are grab your popcorn cuz this story is about to get wild Jay's new nickname all right let's get into the alleged drama between Jay-Z and his former mistress Carmen Bryan you may recognize her name from The Love Triangle she was called fought in with Jay-Z and NZ yeah that was a whole thing back in the day in her Memoir it's no secret Carmen opens up about her relationship with Jay-Z and some of the things she shares are well pretty hard to
ignore Carmen first met Jay-Z in 1995 while she was still with nas At first she described him as warm humble and funny basically that smooth talking guy you can't help but Vibe with they clicked right away and Carmen thought they'd be lifelong friends but things took a strange turn pretty quickly one night after hanging out with friends Carmen fell asleep on the couch and she woke up to Jay-Z kissing her on the lips yeah you heard that right she woke up and found him going in for a kiss she says his lips were soft and
she melted into it but then his hands started to roam nothing happened that night but let's be real waking up to someone kissing you big red flag but here's where it gets even more intense Carmen claims that she was allegedly pressured by Jay-Z into having an after she got pregnant during their affair she was said to have felt forced into making that choice by him and in her eyes it was all about him controlling the situation that's a major claim and it adds a whole new layer to the story she's never minced words when it
comes to how he treated her and this is one of those allegations that really makes you look at things differently at one point you were pregnant by Jay yes I had a miscarriage okay this is before the whole this is yeah this is like before all of that so how far uh how far along were you I I believe I was definitely Less Than 3 months it was the first Trier yeah it wasn't it still early exact yeah it wasn't anything crazy it wasn't planned it wasn't like oh we're going to have this baby and
you know move forward with our no okay when you told Jay that you were pregnant what was his reaction I told him after the fact you told him after told SC okay so he didn't even know no no I told him after fast forward a year later and the physical side of their relationship finally happened Carmen says their first time together was intense but she was still cautious wanting to make sure Jay's intentions were good before moving forward now Carmen's story highlights a pattern that's hard to ignore whether it's how he pursued her while she
was still with NZ or the way things played out during their Affair there's this strange controlling vibe to how Jay-Z allegedly moved with women and keep in mind Carmen was young impressionable and right in the middle of this messy love triangle with two huge figures in hip-hop Carmen's story has resurfaced lately especially after she responded to some serious allegations against Jay-Z including the 13-year-old girl situation now people are starting to connect the dots and wonder if there's a darker side to his character that his polished Public Image hasn't shown sure he's a business Mogul and
a musical genius but the way he's been accused of treating women allegedly of course yeah it's a conversation worth having and let's talk about that Infamous 9-year Affair Carmen had with Jay-Z yes 9 years even while she was engaged to NAS during that time she got pregnant but tragically miscarried but the moment that really had Carmen feeling disgusted was when Jay-Z dropped his track super ugly where he wrapped about sleeping with Carmen in a Jeep and leaving condoms in her daughter's car seat Carmen says that was the moment she lost all respect for him and
can you blame her airing out personal details like that was just straight up disrespectful and if you think that's messy Nas called her in the middle of the night after hearing the song asking yo is this about you and she had to admit yeah it's true Carmen was dragged into the mess and Nas wasn't exactly thrilled either Carmen has never shied away from sharing these painful details she even spoke to vad TV in 2017 revealing that the pregnancy wasn't planned but this wasn't just some casual fling it was complicated emotional and full of public drama
looking back the way Jay-Z allegedly treated Carmen in their relationship leaves a lot of questions about his character from how he pursued her to how he publicly aired their business in Su ugly and even how he allegedly pressured her into to an abortion it's hard to ignore the darker side of his actions and this isn't just an isolated incident with Jay-Z whether it's how he moved with Beyonce while Holding On To His Old Flames or his involvement in some shady legal situations there's a pattern of him getting what he wants consequences be damned and Carmen
well she's not afraid to speak out and remind everyone of that Jay's wrongdoings the pattern of Jay-Z's mistreatment of women is definitely there and it's something that can't be ignored whether it's mistress rumored flings or public Fallout with anyone who crossed his path the stories seem to follow a similar thread it's like every time someone speaks out the narrative just gets more and more suspicious Carmen Bryan she's one of the most infamous examples of how Jay allegedly treated women their Affair lasted nearly a decade yep almost 10 years and it overlapped with her relationship with
NZ the father of her child Not only was she in the middle of one of Hip Hop's biggest beefs but Jay took things to a whole whole new level of disrespect let's talk about how Jay-Z used his music as a weapon remember the time when he aired out all the details of their personal life in his lyrics just imagine the level of humiliation Carmen must have felt when the whole world was in her business she even admitted that this was the moment she lost all respect for him and honestly who could blame her then there's
that track is that your chick another song that dragged Carmen's name through the mud Jay-Z and Memphis Bleak were rapping about sleeping with another man's Woman these weren't just catchy bars they were straight up attacks on Carmen's reputation and guess what she was left to pick up the pieces while everyone else moved on and we can't forget about Kathy white Kathy and Foxy Kathy's name has always been wrapped in mystery she was rumored to have had a romantic connection with Jay-Z even while he was married to Beyonce what makes her story even more eerie is
how untimely her death was she reportedly passed away in 2011 from a brain aneurysm but conspiracy theories spread like wildfire some believed her death was tied to the fact that she was allegedly planning to expose details about her relationship with Jay while there's no concrete evidence to prove this the fact that Cathy's name keeps coming up whenever Jay-Z's treatment of women is discussed says a lot it paints a picture of secrecy and damage control when it comes to the women connected to him but she's not the only one there's also Foxy Brown It's allegedly a
romantical thing it's it's all right I'll say alleged but we know we know mhm mhm yeah she hit it before Beyonce the rumors surrounding Jay-Z and Foxy have been around forever and even though both have denied anything inappropriate ever happened the frequency with which her name pops up in stories about his relationships with women speaks volumes she was only 15 when she signed with Rockefeller and while both Jay and Foxy claimed their relationship was strictly professional the hip-hop world has never stopped side eyeing the situation I I I will say that Jay-Z if he was
doing ill [ __ ] like that he was more quiet about it you know what I mean he was more but then if we be real with ourselves it was kind of abnormal when he got with Beyonce like she was pretty young when he got with her um there's rumors that he was messing with Foxy Brown when she was pretty young whether or not anything went down between them the fact that those rumors still linger shows just how much of a reputation Jay-Z has for how he treats women it's one thing for a rumor to
swirl around once or twice but when the same kind of stuff keeps coming up it's hard to just chalk it up to coincidence when you zoom out and look at the bigger picture it paints a pretty ugly story Jay-Z comes off as someone who treated women like they were disposable or just tools for his own gain whether it's Carmen getting humiliated the mysterious circumstances surrounding Kathy White or the persistent rumors about him and Foxy the common threat is clear there's been a major lack of respect for the women involved Jay-Z's rise to power in the
industry is legendary but it seems like his relationships with women were just collateral damage along the way while the media has been obsessed with his career and marriage to Beyonce these stories from the women he allegedly mistreated haven't gone anywhere and honestly they don't look like they'll be disappearing anytime soon distorted image Jay-Z's Public Image is basically like a master class in branding the story of the kid from the Marcy Projects who turned his life around and built a billion doll Empire it's basically the American dream on steroids he's the definition of a businessman an
entrepreneur and a philanthropist not to mention he's part of Hip Hop's ultimate power couple with Beyonce presenting himself as this family man who's all about social justice he supports causes like prison reform and even bails out protesters when needed in interviews Jay-Z Paints the picture of a man who's grown he talks about his past mistakes even admitting to his infidelity on 444 and champions things like therapy and accountability on paper he's the kind of figure everyone in the culture would want to celebrate someone who overcame adversity supports his family and gives back sounds like a
straightup success story right but here's the thing the private side of Jay-Z is a totally different vibe allegations lawsuits and Whispers from the women in his past paint a much more complicated picture for one Jay-Z might publicly uplift women but there are plenty of rumors out there about him using his power against them when it suits his needs and let's talk about that devoted family man Persona infidelity has been a consistent theme in his story even with Beyonce standing by him through it all the infamous elevator fight with Solange yeah that's another hint at the
cracks in their perfect couple image these contradictions between Jay-Z's public Persona and his private actions are glaring it's like he's carefully curated this image that doesn't quite match up with what's going on behind the scenes now let's talk about something Jaguar Wright and others too have been saying for a while Jay-Z has mastered the art of controlling the narrative the man's ability to redirect attention is pretty much unmatched unlike other celebrities who've had their careers derailed by Scandal Jay-Z always manages to shift Focus back to his successes remember when Beyonce dropped lemonade and it seemed
like the world was ready to confirm his infidelity that story didn't last long because suddenly the conversation shifted to their Recon ilation and oh her pregnancy announcement just like that the world was talking about their happy family again not the [Music] drama then after the elevator fight with Solange a moment that could have destroyed any other celeb couple Jay-Z and Beyonce hit the stage with their joint on the Run Tour and boom the media frenzy was neutralized even now with lawsuits and allegations tying Jay-Z to his old pal Diddy his Camp is already working overtime
Shifting the focus back to protecting his family's privacy people have already started calling out the lawsuit as full of half truths claiming it won't stick this kind of damage control isn't just a coincidence JZ isn't just a rapper he's a brand and let's be real Brands don't survive scandals without meticulous damage control he's built an Empire off of his image and he's not about to let anything ruin it hip-hop lately it feels like Hip Hop's floodgates have totally opened everything's coming to the surface and the lawsuit against Diddy is the spark that's lighting this whole
thing up now the industry is being forced to face the darker sides of its biggest stars and guess who's getting dragged back into the mess Jay-Z it's not just one thing it's like a storm of scandals the Carmen bran memoir which many thought was old news is suddenly back in circulation reminding everyone of the messy complicated relationship she had with Jay on top of that there's that lawsuit accusing Jay-Z of assault which is Raising serious questions about his past Behavior and the amount of power he's had to keep things under wraps but why now well
some people think the fans and insiders in Hip Hop are done protecting The Untouchables they're connecting the dots questioning all the perfectly controlled narratives and demanding some accountability from the artists they once idolized let's be real in today's social media age old scandals don't stay hidden for long one Tik Tok one resurfaced interview or a trending hashtag can bring up stuff from decades ago and Jay-Z as powerful as he is is definitely not immune to that now let's talk about Beyonce because you know she's always going to be part of this conversation she's been Jay-Z's
partner for over 20 years and their marriage is always marketed as the ultimate power couple but every time a new story about Jay's alleged mistreatment of women's surfaces it's impossible not to wonder what has Beyonce had to endure behind the scenes and here's where it gets really interesting Beyonce's silence she's always kept her personal life private but does her quiet support of Jay-Z mean she's accepting everything or is she just choosing to keep Family Matters out of the public eye H let's not forget that she's also a mom with three kids with all these scandals
coming to light how does she navigate this with her family Jay-Z himself has even admitted that he's worried about how these allegations might affect their kids especially Blue Ivy honestly it's hard not to admire Beyonce's strength but you've got to ask at what cost she's built her Empire alongside Jay-Z but how much of that has been about cleaning up his messes behind the scenes the resurfacing of these stories it's not just about Jay-Z it's about a bigger Reckoning in hip-hop and Beyonce's involvement well that adds a whole other layer to this whole situation fans are
left wondering how much more is going to come out and will the cracks in this power couple's image ever really show one thing we know for sure it all comes down to power dynamics Jay-Z's always been in a position of power whether it's as a rapper a businessman or Beyonce's husband that power often kept him from being under much scrutiny but the stories from the women he's crossed paths with are starting to tell a very different story so what do you think do these stories give us a glimpse of who JZ really is behind the
scenes or are they just part of the messy world of Fame and relationships let us know what you think down below and don't forget to check out this next video too [Music]
