Multimillionaire rapper/mogul Jay-Z talked to BBC radio about the racism he experienced when he tried to buy a home in 2009 in the Tribeca area of New York City.
“My neighbors didn’t want me in the building. It was a whole big thing; it was really racist. They didn’t want me in, so I bought the biggest place there.”
He continued, “I guess they think I’m having parties and there’s shootings going on, but I have normal breakfasts and lunches. My friends come over – accountants and bankers.”
