We all know about the ‘lift incident’ in which Solange was seen to be assaulting her brother-in-law JAY Z. Following the incident, The Carters’ camp released a short statement that didn’t give any details on the escapade, but merely that they were basically back to normal. Following a lengthy delay, Solange makes her first comments on the incident in which she ultimately covers the same ground- following an interview with Variety Magazine, the following was published:

Family is a centering force for Knowles—and she speaks of wanting to expand hers once the new album is finished. The day we’re talking in the park is two weeks after TMZ published a leaked elevator video of Knowles getting into an altercation with brother-in-law Jay Z the night of the Met ball at the Standard Hotel. It’s a subject she expects in conversation but one she doesn’t want to focus on. She calls the incident “that thing.” “What’s important is that my family and I are all good,” she says. “What we had to say collectively was in the statement that we put out, and we all feel at peace with that.”
