Singer and now sports agent Jay-Z takes a shot at Scott Boras on his new album Magna Carta Holy Grail.<\/p>\n

\u201cScott Boras, you over baby, Robinson Cano, you coming with me.\u201d raps Jay-Z on the track \u201cCrown\u201d according to ESPN.<\/p>\n

The news hit the internet but it is Boras who may be getting the last laugh.<\/p>\n

Scott Boras on Jay-Z dis: “My music taste, I love jazz. I’m a huge Bernie Williams fan.”<\/p>\n

\u2014 Tim Brown (@TBrownYahoo) July 3, 2013<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Bernie Williams has went on to have a bit of a jazz career since retiring from the Yankees.<\/p>\n

Jay-Z\u2019s Roc Nation’s sports client list has five names on it currently with Cano, NBA player Kevin Durant, NFL players Geno Smith and Victor Cruz and women’s basketball player Skylar Diggins. The company also represents many musical artists.<\/p>\n

“My response to these things is we are baseball players,” Boras told Yahoo Sports. “We are former players. We are people who are 24-7 committed to our game. We do not represent anyone but baseball players.\u201d<\/p>\n

Boras went on to say that approaches such as Jay-Z\u2019s have happened in the past.<\/p>\n

“Exterior approaches are not new to the game,” Boras said. “Many in practice have come in and tried to grab the game. \u2026 All I can offer the player is, all my time will be spent only on baseball.”<\/p>\n

Currently Boras is the agent for youngsters Bryce Harper, Stephen Strasburg, Carlos Gonzalez, Prince Fielder, and Matt Harvey among others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
