Rapper Amil Addresses Rumors That She & Jay Z Were Intimate

The former Roc-A-Fella Records female recording artist Amil, recently addressed the persistent rumors which have carried on throughout the years that she was signed to the label due to her being in an intimate relationship with Jay Z. While promoting her new mixtape, Amil finally shut down those rumors of intimacy between her and Papa Carter once and for all. She was quoted by Billboard stating: "Jay had respect for my talent – writing and my voice – nothing more. Jay gave me the opportunity of a lifetime, and what I did with it was my own decision. That was my brother. There was never a relationship between me and Jay or anyone over there. He was like a brother; He was very protective over [me]. I'm never going to lose any love for Jay. ... There was never a conversation. He (Jay Z) knew that that's not where I wanted to be. I told him that I couldn't do it for another year. I think he understood, overall."
