Artist Teairra Mari, dropped by Jay-Z from his record label, said she had no hard feelings against Rihanna, who rose to stardom on Roc-A-Fella Records around the same time she got dumped.
Mari, now 22, was a 17-year old, up-and-comer when she released her second single "No Daddy," but she quickly fell into obscurity when the Jay-Z-owned label dropped her after one album.
"Rihanna and I were only friendly toward each other," said Mari, in Miami over the weekend to promote her first film "Lottery Ticket" at Club Play over the weekend. "It was all a family thing at the time. There was no bad blood. ... Sometimes we would call each other sisters."
She said contact between she and Jay-Z fizzled after the split.
Fact: Rihanna's debut album Music Of The Sun debuted at #10 on the Billboard Hot 200 albums chart and Teairra Mari's debut album Roc-A-Fella Presents: Teairra Mari debuted at #5 on the Billboard Hot 200 albums chart if anything Rihanna should have been dropped hmm... maby rumors of Rihanna & Jay were true.
