    Blog post image preview I was excited as hell to see Jay in concert with fellow moggers David Hyman (along with his better half), and BrittanyBF. As someone who regularly recites random Jay-Z lines to people as they stare blankly back at me like an idiot, going to see Jigga was on the list of things to do before I die.
    Being that Mary J. has 16 years of hits to rifle through, and Jay-Z has 12, there wasn't much time for an opening act. R&B Newcomer "The Dream" came out and did three songs, a... MORE

    The first video for "You're Welcome" is an official compilation of behind the scenes concert footage. The second video is a real treat. Jay-Z drops a few lines from "Kingdom Come" that touches on George Bush, hurricane Katrina, and Barack Obama. If you want the lyrics, I've included the lyrics below. "People was poor before the hurricane came

Glastonbury organizer Michael Eavis says these reports are absolutely not true, and could have been planted by rival organizers at 02 Wireless. Eavis said that the reports of a possible Jay-Z cancellation were "complet... MORE

    Live Nation is courting Jay-Z for a truly stunning amount of money plus additional benefits. This looks like a "Madonna Deal" to the tune of $150 Million, but it also looks like so much more than what Madge agreed to. According to a report on Billboard.com:
    As part of the roughly $150 million partnership, to be called Roc Nation, Live Nation would finance future start-up ventures by Jay-Z, which could include his own label, music publishing, and artist consulting and man

    I am really interested in seeing people's opinion on this. 1. Reasonable Doubt "I'm smooth but deadly like a pearl- handled pistol." That has to be one of the greatest rap lyrics of all-time. I pick this one as my favorite, because there is genius on every song. The lyrics are incredible and the production is amazing. It's a flawless album. 2. The Blueprint I give this album the

An anonymous source has told the New York Post that Jay is asking for crazy amounts of money for his rumored "Carter Music Group" imprint.

    Ticket registration for the Glastonbury festival are down from 2007, and many believe it's due to the headlining act... Jay-Z. The event organizer Michael Eavis says the drop in sales are due to "middle range" headliners. Speaking from the perspective of a hip hop head I can't fathom Jay-Z being mid-range talent, but maybe things are different in the U.K. as Eavis suggested.
    “We've gone for something middle range although Jay-Z is huge in America."

    The new video for "I Know" off Jay-Z's American Gangster album doesn't feature the rapper at all, but Zoe Kravitz (daughter of Lenny) plays the lead role. The song itself is about the controlling effect of heroin and Zoe plays the victim. Check it out.
