Female rapper claims Jay Z hit on her while married to Beyonce

Over the weekend an up and coming rapper named Liv (pictured right) claimed Jay Z tried to 'hit it' while married to Beyonce...

Liv tells PNC Radio

"For the most part, Jay hit me on some, 'I'll hit you when I'm in town'...This is while he is married to Beyonce. For me, I'm not that chick. I could do a lot of things but (I choose not to.). I have a lot of respect for Beyonce. As an artist, as a woman, as a wife."

"I could do a lot of grimey things, so I could get in a position, but I would have to look at myself in the mirror...Why not just work for it?... I'm not even on that. I'm not trying to compromise for this game."

You respect Beyonce yet you're talking? Who believes her? Oh, and that's not all. Liv talked about her supposed encounter with Jay Z in one of her songs. See that and the radio interview after the cut..

On The Invasion Part 2, Liv raps,

I could have messed with Jay, but got respect for Bey/ We were on the same set of a commercial, see / I was sitting by myself, and he sat next to me / I was handling it well, and he was shocked to see, I was getting up to leave, he sent his guards to me/ Excuse me Miss, do me a favor, put your number on this piece of paper When Jay get settled and he'll call you later/ I know most chicks would have took the bait, but then those chicks be the ones I hate / I wonder to this day if I'd have gave it up would it be me on stage throwing it up!

We hear you mama...the radio interview below...
