Buzbee, a high-profile attorney who is representing multiple individuals accusing Combs of sexual misconduct, dismissed Jay-Z’s extortion claims, stating, “This is not extortion. This is justice.” Buzbee maintains that his communication with Jay-Z’s legal team was a standard procedure to explore mediation options before litigation.

Sean Combs Also Denies Involvement

Sean Combs, who is currently facing unrelated federal sex trafficking charges, has also denied the allegations. His legal representatives have categorized the lawsuits as “opportunistic” and claimed they are part of an effort to exploit his public status. Combs has been under heightened scrutiny as more individuals come forward with claims of misconduct against him.
