Jay Z Addresses Beef With Kanye: "You Can't Bring My Kid Or My Wife Into It"

Oh no, this fight is NOT over yet ... Jay Z finally addressed his outstanding issues with Kanye West in an interview to promote his album 4:44 the other day on the Rap Radar podcast and he said everything's okay EXCEPT that Kanye brought Beyonce and Blue Ivy into the equation when he went on a tirade during his Oakland concert last year before eventually being hospitalized for a supposed nervous breakdown.
So Jay's got a single on the album, "Kill Jay Z" and it's got a lot in there about his feud with Ye: "I know people backstab you, I feel bad too / But this ‘F--k everybody’ attitude ain’t natural / But you ain’t the same, this ain’t KumbaYe / But you got hurt because you did cool by ’Ye / You gave him 20 million without blinkin’ / He gave you 20 minutes on stage, f--k was he thinkin’? / ‘F--k wrong with everybody?’ is what you sayin’ / But if everybody’s crazy, you’re the one that’s insane."
But Jay told hosts Brian Wilson and Brian "B.Dot" Miller that "It's not a diss. I'm talking to myself the whole time."
He went on to say:
- "You got hurt because this person was talking about you on a stage. But what really hurt me was, you can’t bring my kid or my wife into it. 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."
Hova says he knows Kanye knows he messed up: "I know he knows, because we’ve never let this much space go between one of our disagreements, and we’ve had many, because that’s who we are. That’s what I like about him. He’s an honest person, he’s open and he’ll say things and he’s wrong a lot of times and he’ll confront it."
I mean ... it's kinda cool for him to talk like this. But it's just like the cheating on Beyonce thing ... how much of your dirty laundry should you air in public in order to promote and album???
