Jay-Z Accuses Man Claiming to Be His Son of Making ‘Fabricated’ Claims

NEW JERSEY, UNITED STATES, JUL 10 – Jay-Z calls allegations fabricated and describes lawsuit as part of decades-long harassment, with previous claims dismissed and a contempt order issued against the accuser.

  • On May 6, 2025, Rymir Satterthwaite, a 31-year-old man, filed a federal lawsuit claiming Jay-Z is his biological father and seeking damages for emotional distress and public embarrassment.
  • The suit follows a longstanding legal battle since 2010, when Satterthwaite's mother Wanda requested a paternity test, but Jay-Z has denied taking one and contested the claims at every stage.
  • Jay-Z condemned the lawsuit as fabricated and called it the latest chapter in decades-long harassment by Satterthwaite, whose legal team alleges fraud and intimidation aimed to silence him.
  • Jay-Z stated he only learned of the filing on June 3, requested more time to respond, and emphasized, "My only heartbreak is for my family," while Satterthwaite said, "I just feel like we could get this resolved."
  • The ongoing dispute has not been resolved, the judge has not ruled on the latest filing, and the conflicting claims suggest a continued legal and personal conflict with implications for all parties involved.
