Jay-Z Says He Fought For Marriage To Beyonce To 'Break the Cycle'
"That's my soul mate. It's the person I love," said Jay-Z. "If you haven't experienced love or don't understand it or you don't have the tools to move forward then you are going to have complications. Period." "You can either address it or you pretend until it blows up at some point," he said. "For us, we chose to fight for our love, for our family to give our kids a different outcome—to break that cycle for black men and women." Asked for advice he would give to others, the singer said: "The best apology is changed behavior." "You have to acknowledge the pain and you have to let that person have their say." Beyonce memorably sang about her pain in her Lemonade album. "You have to get on the floor, get on the mattress. You have to work through it. really be honest," added the artist. "It takes a while. It's hard. it's difficult to hear, difficult to stay, difficult to listen to that kind of pain—but you have to be strong enough." "But on the other side, it's beautiful."
In a conversation on the 'Van Jones Show' on CNN, Jay-Z talked about the trouble in his marriage and why it didn't end like many expected after his alleged infidelity.
