Jay Z was instrumental in promoting the former New Jersey NETS move to Brooklyn. In return for his star power, the Nets and Barclays Center owner gave Jay Z the tiniest sliver of team ownership, which Jigga attempted to parlay into a fake image that he was a full-blown team owner.
In an article titled JAY-Z BARELY OWNS THE NETS AND THAT BARELY MATTERS, Vice.com exposed Jay Z as a fraud who “barely” owns the Nets.
Jay Z responded to the backlash by referring to his minuscule percentage of the Nets as no big deal. But deep down inside, his narcissistic ego was bruised. It wasn’t long before Jay Z came up with the idea of owning his own players — since his money wasn’t long enough to own a team.
“Because of my love of sports, it was a natural progression to form a company where we can help top athletes in various sports the same way we have been helping artists in the music industry for years,” Jay-Z said.
