An executive at the company that manufactures Cristal champagne has expressed his antipathy to hip hop culture and its songs that promote cupidity and relate the details of salacious exploits. He believes that the culture brings "unwanted attention" to the brand; in response to this negative stance, Jay-Z has joined a boycott of Cristal.
