He is now suing his accuser’s lawyer, Tony Buzbee, who filed the allegation that he and fellow rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs attacked the girl at a 2000 MTV Video Music Awards party.

In court documents, Jay-Z said: “Social media comments online responding to Mr Buzbee’s public statements about me and accusations against me have caused me harm. For example, people have said ‘I can’t wait until you join (Combs) in prison. Then later in hell’.

“Other comments have accused me of being a ‘satanist’, a ‘trafficker’, a ‘terrorist’, and a ‘monster’, called me the N-word and threatened violence against me and my wife, including to ‘k!ll’ or ‘execute’ us.”

Billionaire Jay-Z, real name Shawn Carter, was rocked by the lawsuit in December.

He claimed it was an attempt at blackmail.

But on Saturday, it was revealed that his unnamed accuser had voluntarily dismissed the case.

It led Jay-Z, who has three children with Beyonce, to declare it a victory, dismissing the action as “frivolous, fictitious and appalling”.

In the documents, he claimed the timing of the lawsuit was malicious, as it was filed in December the day before the London premiere of Mufasa: The Lion King, starring Beyonce, 43, and their eldest daughter Blue Ivy, 13. Jay-Z wrote: “I feel that Mr Buzbee purposely filed this lawsuit on the eve of my daughter’s premiere to put me in the position of having to choose between supporting my daughter or hiding to avoid the negative press coverage.

“This civil suit was without merit and never going anywhere.

“The fictional tale they created was laughable, if not for the seriousness of the claims. I would not wish this experience on anyone.

“The trauma that my wife, my children, loved ones and I have endured can never be dismissed.”

While Jay-Z no longer faces legal action, Combs, 55, has more than three dozen cases outstanding.

He claims he will be found innocent but has been held in prison for six months on criminal charges of racketeering and s3x trafficking.
