There has been alot of talk about Jay-Z looking to sell his part ownership in the NBA Brooklyn Nets to become a sports agent and push his ‘Roc Nation Sports’  brand.

Last week he learned that he must have a 4-year college degree to be eligible to be an agent. However, he can still be the owner and control the company.

Well it is official now, as this is what he said on his website:

“Being a member of the Nets organization surpassed some of my greatest ambitions. It was never about an investment; it was about the NETS and Brooklyn. My job as an owner is over but as a fan it has just begun. I’m a Brooklyn Net forever. It’s been an honor to work with Mikhail Prokhorov, Dmitry Razumov, Christophe Charlier, ONEXIM Sports and Entertainment, Brett Yormark and all the wonderful people involved in making the Nets first class. My sincerest thanks goes to Bruce Ratner, who first introduced the idea of moving the Nets to Brooklyn. A thank you and deepest appreciation goes to the fans. You are the lifeblood of any team.”
