We won’t find out any time soon…see how Jay-Z prevented the New York state government from finding out.
Rap mogul JAY-Z has scrapped plans to invest in a new racetrack casino project in New York after state officials allegedly ordered all the backers to hand over detailed records of their finances.
But Jay-Z – real name Shawn Carter – has now pulled out after officials brought in new rules which will force all the investors to submit comprehensive records on their own finances, and those of their spouses, to the state, according to the New York Observer.
The order would mean the rap star and his superstar wife Beyonce would have to turn over private details of their finances. After the ruling Jay-Z allegedly reached out to New York’s Governor for assistance, but was told the Governor’s office couldn’t interfere.
The project is now reportedly set to go ahead without the star’s investment.
