According to the latest rumor mill,
Jay-Z has a son already by an ex-girlfriend named Shanelle Scott from Trinidad. Now my sources have revealed that Jigga has been paying some major figgas in child support over the last few years. Now I don't know about you but I was definitely unaware that
Jay Z had any children but in my latest research I found that this "secret baby" scandal has been going on for quite some time now. Since about 2007 it all came out that he had a son but it was still kept under wraps. Well then again in 2009 the rumors resurfaced and it was reported from my sources that:
… the fiercely private rapper – who’s worth an estimated $400 million – reportedly has a secret 7-year-old son who he’s amazingly managed to hide from the limelight all this time. The boy apparently bears a striking resemblance to his father and is the result of Jay-Z’s romance with Trinidadian model Shenelle Scott which ended in 2001, before he met Beyoncé.
Jay-Z has gone to great lengths to distance himself from the claims, despite reports that he’s privately admitted paternity. Beyoncé, whom he married in April 2008, is now apparently accepting of the boy and is even said to have gone on holiday with her stepson in the South of France.
Although Jay-Z’s spokesman denied that there was any truth in ‘these ridiculous rumours’, the rebuttal falls short of a denial that the rap star is the boy’s father. Despite approaching Jay-Z’s representatives repeatedly last week, they refused to comment.
Well you tell me, it was also stated that when Jigga initially found out that he was the father he cashed Shanelle out with a nice $1,000,000 to keep her mouth shut. She bought a home in Trinidad and Jay has been paying her hefty child support payments ever since. Shanelle's exboyfriend, Malik Sayeed, told sources that he believed that the baby was his in the beginning, but when the baby came his family told him that he needed to get a dna test. So after the test came back that it was Jay's baby he apparently took financial responsibility if nothing else. Shanelle now lives in a $2.5 million dollar home in Trinidad with her entire family.
“Malik threw [Shenelle] a baby shower and bought all this stuff to prepare for the arrival,” the source said. “However, after the baby was born, friends and family told him he needed to get a DNA test.
“Everyone knew she was sleeping around and sleeping with Jay,” the source said. “There was a good chance it was his.”
Not sure why Jay would hide his son from the world but as we know both him and his wife are very private people. Now how does Beyonce feel about all of this? She had to have found out or knew about it because it's reported that she took the little guy on family vacations to Venice. But when did she find out is the question if Pre-marraige okay but if not Jay's got 99 problems and Beyonce's all of them!
Latest Update just in!!: Now the guy that was spilling all the juicy gossip about Jay's secret love child has went back on his story stating that:
“I know Shenelle, but I’ve never spoken to her or my son about this. They’re very private people. The stuff about the DNA test was on the Internet. It’s all from an old article on the Internet,” he said. “I don’t know if it’s true.”
“The house wasn’t purchased by Jay-Z. It was paid for by her present husband.”
Umm Hmm we'll just have to keep our eyes peeled about this one.

“Compelling cases that make us second-guess our justice system have always struck a chord with the American public,” said Benjamin T. Jealous, president of the N.A.A.C.P. “Some are simply more compelling in that they seem to tap deeply into the psyche of this country. A case like this suggests that our justice system is flawed.”
