Grammy-winner Jay Z faces paternity suit

Rapper Jay Z is being sued by a young man, who claims the Grammy-winner is his father. The suit has been filed by 21-year-old aspiring rapper named Rymir Satterthwaite. According to the papers filed in New Jersey in December 2014 through his godmother Lillie Coley, Rymir claimed his mother Wanda and Jay Z had a relationship in the early 1990s, reported Aceshowbiz.

In his suit, Rymir accused 45-year-old Beyonce Knowles' husband of "blatantly lying to a court to avoid taking a paternity test."

Court papers show the paternity fight dates back in June 2010 when Wanda first named Jay Z as a possible father to her son after another man named Robert Graves who was believed to be Rymir's father since birth was not his biological father.

Wanda then tried to force Jay Z to submit to a DNA test but failed because the case was dismissed by the court due to the lack of jurisdiction over the rapper.

Lillie accused Jay-Z and his lawyer Lise Fisher of providing "fraudulent" and "false" information to a judge. Lillie claimed the rapper lied about his address to avoid paternity test.

Jay Z reportedly told the court that he lives in Manhattan, not in New Jersey. The rapper's representative has not commented on the issue yet, while Rymir tweeted on Thursday, February 19, "Trying to stay positive."
