  • A 2006 video of Rihanna talking about Jay-Z has resurfaced just after the rapper was accused of raping a 13-year-old girl at the VMAs back in 2000.

The article discusses a controversial moment from the 2014 pre-Grammy brunch hosted by Jay-Z and Beyoncé, where Jay-Z made a dark, private joke to Rihanna about her song "Umbrella" in light of Chris Brown's assault on her in 2009. The joke resurfaced following recent rape allegations against Jay-Z by a woman named Jane Roe, who claims the incident occurred in 1994 when she was 16.

The article also touches on the broader implications of such allegations on Jay-Z's public image and the music industry's handling of abuse and misconduct.
