Jay-Z has filed a countersuit against Tony Buzbee, the lawyer representing an anonymous accuser who alleged he and rapper Sean "Diddy" Combs raped her when she was 13 years old.

In his filing, the Roc Nation boss claims he and his wife Beyonce faced death threats following the "malicious and fictitious" lawsuit, adding that the timing in which the suit came was "purposely" done by Buzbee to force him into a no-win situation.

The case was recently dismissed with prejudice, leading Jay-Z to reveal that Tony Buzbee attempted to get money from him with a number of allegations.

Jay-Z Says His Life Was Threatened Due To Rape Lawsuit

According to the Daily Mail, Jay-Z has filed a countersuit against Buzbee, attorney to an anonymous accuser who alleged that he and Diddy raped her as a minor at a 2000 MTV VMAs party.

In his filing, the "Empire State Of Mind" rapper claimed he and his wife received death threats due to the rape lawsuit and that Buzbee's "public statements about me and accusations against me have caused me harm."

"People have said, 'I can't wait until you join (Combs) in prison. Then later in hell,'" Jay-Z alleged in his complaint. "Other comments have accused me of being a 'satanist,' a 'trafficker,' a 'terrorist,' and a 'monster,' called me the N-word and threatened violence against me and my wife, including to 'kill' or 'execute' us."

The rape lawsuit was notably filed against Jay-Z in December, a day before the "Lion King" prequel "Mufasa," which starred Beyonce and Blue Ivy, premiered in London.

Jay-Z added in his complaints that Buzbee "purposely" filed the lawsuit the day before the premiere to "put me in the position of having to choose between supporting my daughter or hiding to avoid the negative press coverage."

Jay-Z Alleges Tony Buzbee Tried To Get Money From Him

Beyond the damage done to his reputation, Jay-Z also claims he lost $20 million in business contracts due to the accusations, describing the ordeal as a calculated attack on his reputation.

In court documents obtained by TMZ, the "Drunk In Love" rapper also alleged that Buzbee tried to extort him of huge sums of money over two different allegations, one of which was the case just dismissed and another which didn't make it to court.

The other case in question involved an anonymous male accuser who alleged Jay-Z sexually assaulted him at a 2015 Beverly Hills party when he was 16 years old and had been secretly drugged by someone other than the hip-hop billionaire.

According to the news outlet, the rapper noted that Buzbee's letters for both clients demanded "something of substance" to address the "situation."

However, Jay-Z interpreted it as a demand for a lot of money "to buy their silence," calling the letters "blatant blackmail attempts."

The Rape Case Has Been Dismissed

Jay-Z's countersuit comes after the anonymous plaintiff voluntarily dismissed the sexual assault lawsuit with prejudice, meaning it cannot be refiled again in its current form.

The rapper, via his entertainment company Roc Nation, then issued a statement referring to the dismissal as a "victory."

"Today is a victory," the statement began. "The frivolous, fictitious, and appalling allegations have been dismissed. This civil suit was without merit and never going anywhere. The fictional tale they created was laughable, if not for the seriousness of the claims."

He continued, "I would not wish this experience on anyone. The trauma that my wife, my children, loved ones and I have endured can never be dismissed. This 1-800 lawyer gets to file a suit hiding behind Jane Doe, and when they quickly realize that the money grab is going to fail, they get to walk away with no repercussions."

Jay-Z added that "the system has failed," noting that while the court "must protect victims," it must also "protect the innocent from being accused without a shred of evidence" with "the same ethical responsibility."

"May the truth prevail for all victims and those falsely accused equally," the rapper concluded.

Diddy Responds To The Dismissal While Locked Up

Unlike Jay-Z, Diddy still has a number of sexual assault lawsuits against him.

The Bad Boy Records founder has been locked behind bars at the notorious Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn on federal charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution.

He had attempted to secure bail several times but was denied and would remain there ahead of his trial on May 5.

Responding to Friday's dismissal, Diddy's legal team also issued a statement declaring his innocence.

"For months, we have seen case after case filed by individuals hiding behind anonymity, pushed forward by an attorney more focused on media headlines than legal merit. Just like this claim, the others will fall apart because there is no truth to them," the statement said.

It added: "This is just the first of many that will not hold up in a court of law."

Beyoncé Is 'Relieved' By The Dismissal Of The Rape Case

Sources close to the Carters revealed that singer Beyoncé feels "relieved" by the dismissal of the rape lawsuit against her husband.

"Relief is too simple a word to describe what Bey is feeling right now after Jay's current legal issues were dropped," an insider told the Daily Mail.

According to the source, the family tried to put on "brave faces behind the scenes," seemingly by continuing their usual public activities despite the allegations.

They were spotted attending the premiere of Blue Ivy's "Lion King" movie and also made an appearance at the 2025 Grammy Awards, where Beyoncé became the first Black woman in over half a century to win Best Country Album.
