Roc Nation has responded to claims made against them by Tory Lanez on his new Peterson album.
On the album, Lanez accused the company of falsifying DNA evidence to frame him for the shooting of Megan Thee Stallion.
“Trial laywer left me like she Kevin Liles/ She was in bed with my opposition like wedding vows/ Shawn Holley, that’s a name I would call special/ Only a special person could rep you and wanna dead you/ Go to your DNA expert and say don’t test you/ You fully excluded but inconclusive is what she tells you,” he rapped.
After being named in the song, Holley issued a statement to XXL in response:
“Mr. Peterson’s claims have been investigated thoroughly by the State Bar and proven — on two separate occasions — to be meritless,” she said. “His own representative has acknowledged to me that he is making these knowingly false claims in a desperate attempt to say or do anything he can to get out of prison.
“Again, I have never had any relationship or connection to Roc Nation and my loyalty throughout the time I represented Mr. Peterson was only to him. Finally, Mr. Peterson asked me to step down as his counsel when I refused to advance the defense he wanted to put forth.”
Holley concluded: “He is now sitting in prison, having used that defense in his trial. Maybe he should have listened to me.”
