It looks like Jay-Z and Kanye West are ready to hit the road again, announcing dates for their Spring/Summer trek for the Watch The Throne tour. The duo kicks things off at London’s O2 Arena on May 20th, and wrap up on June 13th at the LG Arena in the UK. Check out all the dates below.
After putting out one of the hottest Hip Hop albums this year with Watch The Throne, various business ventures and sold-out concerts across the country, Jay-Z takes the No. 6 spot on MTV‘s Hottest MC in the Game list. Hmm, I thought he would be higher but then again he didn’t put out a solo project.
“If you talk about the Throne, yeah, top five, no question. But Jay himself? From January to August, what was going on?” asked Rahman Dukes, MTV News’ director of hip-hop news, pointing out Jigga’s inactivity apart from WTT. “Kanye was moving.”
This is something to get your afternoon going. The Theorist jumps on his paino for his interpretation of The Throne’s hit single “N*ggas In Paris”. Pretty cool. Hopefully Jay and Yeezy pick up on this.
Almost a month after Jay-Z and Beyonce welcomed their baby girl Blue Ivy into the world, Mr. and Mrs. Carter release the first snaps of their lil’ girl. Check out more snaps below, including one with papa HOV.
Now that their Watch The Throne tour has wrapped and Jay-Z’s two night special at Carnegie Hall is all done, Jay-Z and Kanye West finally find the time to release their video for “N*ggas In Paris” produced by Hit-Boy. The video consists of exclusive concert footage from across the country. Video directed by Mr. West. Dope dope dope.
Beyonce surprised fans on Monday evening when she stepped out at Jay-Z’s Carnegie Hall show, the first time since giving birth to her daughter Blue Ivy last month. Bey joined Hova’s friends in the VIP section at the show, before heading on over to her hubby’s 40/40 club for a small after-party.
On Tuesday evening, Bey attended Jay’s second sold out show at Carnegie Hall. She sure looked good in her finest threads after only giving birth less than a month ago. Check out more shots of her hitting the town below.
Jay-Z shut down NYC last night with his concert at Carnegie Hall. During his set, Hov brought out special guests Alicia Keys and Nas on stage. Here’s footage of Nasty Nas doing his thing with “NY State Of Mind”.
Dressed in his fanciest tuxedo, Jay-Z took to the stage last night for his first ever performance at Carnegie Hall. During his set, he performed “Glory”, dedicated to his newborn baby daughter, Blue Ivy. Jay’s two Carnegie Hall fundraiser performances support his Sean Carter scholarship foundation. Now if we could only get a glimpse of B.I.C.
Anyone think she'll have a record deal by year end?
Beyonce and Jay-Z's newborn daughter, Blue Ivy is making a name for herself not even a week after she was born. According to Billboard, B.I.C. becomes the youngest person to make the chart with her dad's new tune "Glory". The single entered the list this week at #74 on the R&B/Hip-hop Songs chart. That first cry has turned into music gold.
