Jay Z Forbidden to Speak on Barneys Incident?


If you're waiting for Jay Z to comment on the growing backlash over his partnership with Barneys in the wake of their Black shopper racial profiling controversy don't hold your breath...

Earlier this week fans put pressure on Jay Z to drop his Christmas campaign with Barneys after two Black shoppers came forward claiming they were detained by police and questioned after making purchases at the high end retailer [click here if you missed that].

Yesterday news outlets in Sweden ambushed Jay Z on the street and tried to get a comment about the incident on record.

According to reports Jay Z remained mum while a member of his entourage told reporters, 
“He’s not allowed to answer any questions about that.”
