After being accused of allegedly stealing funds from his daughter, Beyoncé, Mathew Knowles speaks out on the legal matter, his recent relationship with Beyoncé and how he views the handling of her latest project, 4.

Both Mathew and Bey publicly state that their separation is a result of a professional change in direction for both parties. Mathew is now claiming that in addition to Live Nation, both Roc Nation and Beyoncé’s label, Columbia Records, have “negative comments about me” and he hasn’t spoken to his daughter since they decided to part ways.

Mathew speaks on the accusations of stealing from Beyoncé…

“We absolutely have not taken any money from Beyonce, and all dollars will be accounted for. In no way have we stole money. Again, this about the people who have made these claims — they have to come into the light.[...]The relationship with Beyonce is extremely amicable. I want to make that clear. Where there’s concern is the people that she’s doing business with,” he said. “I’m challenging all of these folks on integrity, professional integrity.”

On Beyonce Making Big Changes…

“She changed almost every aspect of her business.[...]The team ironically appeared to be a cross-pollination of Beyonce’s team, Roc Nation’s team, and Live Nation’s team, who ironically have the most to gain,” he said. “I’ll let people come to their own conclusion.”

About Speaking With Beyoncé About The Allegations…

”We have not had that conversation[...]The only way we will be able to understand this is through a court of law. That’s the only way either one of us will be clear if someone in our camps did something that was not correct.”

Mathew also discusses his thoughts on the handling of Beyoncé’s latest album, 4…

“They put out the record in a vacuum,” he said, adding that her success came despite setbacks. “It makes you believe that there are some artists that don’t need radio. There are some records that don’t need a record label, and Beyonce is one of those artists.”

I hope she and her father patch their relationship and this matter…the music industry would be a terrible thing to blame if not.
