To be fair to Noel he never said he disliked Jay Z or his music. He just stated that he thought he wasn't suited for Glastonbury. This opinion was mirrored by many others also including Dizzee Rascal remember who said Jay Z didn't have the 'crossover appeal' of a Kanye or Eminem. Did that draw huge headlines? No. But Noel Gallagher voices his opinion and all of a sudden the press label him controversial and make a big deal out of it. The man had a valid point and isn't retracting anything he has said. He's simply stating the facts. He never said he disliked Jay Z yet a lot of people have wrongly drawn that conclusion.
