Weeks after rumors of his infidelity emerged in wife Beyoncé's new visual album Lemonade, Jay Z is finally putting in his two cents on the matter. The musician debuted his response Tuesday night at Yankee Stadium in the form of a newly released remix of Fat Joe and Remy's "All the Way Up." The song's first verse: "You know you made it when the fact your marriage made it is worth millions/Lemonade is a popular drink and it still is."
Prior to the song's release, Jay Z had stayed mum about his apparent infidelity, despite the onslaught of angry reactions from Beyoncé fans and the ruthless search for the identity of the rapper's mistress, whom Beyoncé refers to as "Becky with the good hair" in her track "Sorry". The couple has been married for eight years and allegedly went through a rough patch in 2014.
Jay Z is also rumored to be writing an entire album telling "his side" of Lemonade. For now, you can listen to his latest track on Tidal.
