Here Is Why Solange Knowles Pounced On Jay Z

Beyonce's sister blames her failure to superstardom on Jay + Assumes Jay is cheating!

After a famous vicious fight in an elevator in New York last May 5 between Solange Knowles and hip hop giant Jay Z, there’s been a leak as to why the fight started in the first place. Besides, Solange being super jealous of her sister Beyonce, she believes Jay isn't "supportive" enough of the Knowles family and could be cheating on Bey with her former friend, Rachel Roy.

Reports say Solange's anger and resentment towards Bey's hubby, Jay Z began long before that Met Gala night. Her bitterness stems from various issues including; her jealousy over her sister's superstardom,  her unhappiness over her own ‘modest’ music career as well as Hov's negligence of her music choices.

Solange claims the "Forever Young" rapper has an eye for picking out super stars like Rihanna, J. Cole, Calvin Harris etc but hasn't been able to wake up her music and build her own brand away from being called "Beyonce's sister" often times.

But according to very close source,  "she has this very odd way of handling his feedback. He will tell her, honestly, that 'this song is a hit' or 'this won't connect with people,' and she doubles back, claiming that she’s an indie artist and can’t make decisions based on trends. It doesn't make much sense. He [Jay Z] always says that she shouldn't ask his opinion if she doesn't care."

"Jay Z would do anything in his power to help , but he feels like the way she dismisses his advice is a blow to his sense of taste and style." The source added.

That faithfull night, Solange reportedly lashed out at her former friend and designer Rachel Roy before the Met Gala and the elevator fight. But another source claims she got really pissed at Jay Z for asking why she did. "Solange was defending Beyoncé in the elevator because Solange finds Jay's friendship with Rachel to be WAY too close for comfort and it makes Solange very uncomfortable," a source close to Solange reveals.

Earlier in the night, Rachel reportedly approached Solange "in a confrontational way," and then Bey even stepped in. "Beyoncé also confronted Rachel and said, 'Don't talk to my sister like that,’ after [Rachel] confronted Solange."

So was Jay Z just being nice to prevent a public fight between Solange and Rachel or was Solange too tipsy to see Jay was just protecting her?
