Damon Dash is certainly not over the "Becky with the good hair" jibe in Beyonce's widely publicized song, "Lemonade" after launching a scathing attack on Bey and her hubby for not apologizing to his ex wife over the negative taunts launched at her in the song. This is how the Daily Mail reported it.
"She was accused of being the infamous 'Becky with the good hair' mentioned in Beyonce's album Lemonade.
As
a result of the rumours, fashion designer Rachel Roy's email was hacked
and even her phone number changed without permission.
But
now, Rachel's ex-husband Damon Dash has come to her defence, going so
far as to slam Beyonce and Jay-Z for not speaking out to quash the
erroneous reports.
Slammed: Beyonce and Jay-Z, pictured
last May, have been criticised by Damon Dash for not speaking out after
Rachel Roy was accused of being the 'Becky' mentioned in Lemonade
'They are cowards,' he told Grazia in an explosive new interview. 'They should have stepped up and said something.'
Speaking
at the launch of his own television network Damon Dash TV, the
entrepreneur and music producer said he and Rachel's daughters Tallulah
and Ava have been harassed on social media as a result of the rumours
surrounding their mother".
'Adults
can go and harass a kid on behalf of an R & B singer?' he said.
'The trolls should have been put in jail for that, it was crazy.'
However,
Damon, who fell out with Jay-Z in 2004 following the sale of their
record company Roc-A-Fella, was more cryptic when asked by the magazine
about the rumours of a past romance between Rachel and Jay-Z.
'I don't care what Rachel did, I don't agree with a lot of things she does,' he said, mysteriously.
Happier times: Damon Dash has defended
ex-wife Rachel Roy, seen together in 2006, whose email account was
reportedly hacked earlier this year
Rachel, 42, was horrified when her Gmail and iCloud accounts were hacked in the days following Lemonade's release on April 23.
The
Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) were said to have obtained a
search warrant for phone and email records and believed the perpetrator
was a Beyonce fan, according to TMZ.com.
The
mother-of-two was forced to deny accusations that she was 'Becky with
the good hair,' but she believes it was the speculation among fans that
directly led to her being hacked.
Controversial: The 42-year-old sparked
speculation she was 'Becky' after posting an Instagram photo about her
'good hair' hours after Beyonce's Lemonade premiered
In
documents seen by TMZ, Roy makes it clear she believes the hacking
stemmed from her posting an Instagram photo just hours after Lemonade's
debut.
She
captioned it: 'Good hair don't care, but we will take good lighting,
for selfies, or self truths, always. Live in the light #nodramaqueens'
As fans will remember, Beyonce sings about a love rival, who she describes as 'Becky with the good hair' in the song 'Sorry.'
The
lyrics - 'He only want me when I'm not there/ He better call Becky with
the good hair' - sparked a frenzy among fans as they speculated about
who 'Becky' is.
