JAY-Z TURNS DOWN OFFER TO PERFORM AT 2018 SUPER BOWL

[The Devil's Advocate]

A jay z stage show would be underwhelming. They need a showman. Jay isn't a showman.

you've obviously never been to a jay-z show

There's a reason why huge venues don't do hip hop unless the whole industry is pretty much there save for a couple of acts here and there.

but hov is one of the few artists that does stadium tours without the whole industry or even have of it there

matter of fact, he's literally on one right now

the fact you got Michael in the same sentence with some of those artist just goes to show you obviously are confused about what a good performance is

this the bullshyt you soooo entertained by?


maybe yall need to stop dikkriding everything else....if you wanna see Pink swinging on strings in the air for the thousanth time,thats you.

performance is about good music,how about you respect the music and the energy ,and the story Jayz tells when he performs instead of looking at pyro and a hundred dancers on stage like that makes you a big shot as a performer

yall dont know what the fukk yall talking about man.

exactly.. is jay-z, anything like michael jackson or beyonce... well fukk no



but nikkas naming pink and gaga... cause they got some harnesses and props and dancers doing all the work? as if jay couldn't do that? as if meth and red wasn't doing that on hard knock life tour 20 years ago...

showmanship is how good you put on a show... not how many props you can bring to the table.. this ain't las vegas cirque du soleil. these bytches out here lip syncing and running around.

that doesn't mean that i'm going to be less entertained by a jay-z show, just cause he's rapping.. same way busta rhymes is considered one of the best shows and don't need that.. puff is considered one of the best.. shyt DMX considered one of the best off energy and heartfelt shyt.. kanye one of the best based on rants and unpredictability

it's more than just confetti and glitter

I don't really buy that Hov was offered to perform. Even if so, why would be try to perform all these songs edited nowadays? He's beyond that now

 

[Ineedmoney504]

Being a great performer isnt about having classics,its about stage presence and he doesnt have much...he stands in one spot doing a two step...Ive been to 2 of his shows and the crowd wasnt into it much after the buzz of him coming out on stage....Hes a boring performer and its not going to get better in his late 40s...

Wtf I been to 3 of them and they were legit the best shows I been to

That's where you're wrong. They're not specifically trying to impress YOU. They wanna impress EVERYBODY.


They always try to land acts that you'd have to live under a rock to not know.


@ needing expensive fireworks and stuntmen so Future can mumble off to the side of the stage about Actavis wearing a fedora while paid extras yell and wave glow sticks.

i heard of any songs of them fukking cacs u hyping. Nobody I my circle listens to that trash

Again I say, you probably have a very narrow knowledge of music in general then. You got acts selling out stadiums and selling an insane amount of albums worldwide. I don't think they care that they don't get play in your Wraith.

So if black peoples never heard the cac shyt we don't count? But if cacs never heard black artist the artist ain't shyt.

U either a cac or a c00n. Stop speaking, same way I knew nobody who knew who Taylor swift was before the Kanye situation. Don't give a fukk wit u say, he made that bytch famous

Jay-Z Turns Down Offer To Perform At 2018 Super Bowl - The Source

The NFL is looking for an artist that will top Lady Gaga’s 2017 Super Bowl halftime performance(and ratings) and they found everything they need in Jay-Z. Problem is, Hov says no.

The rap mogul turned down the coveted halftime spot for next year’s Super Bowl, which boasts past shows from the likes of Missy Elliot, Janet Jackson and his wife Beyoncé.

Last week, Jay showed his solidarity with ousted NFLer Colin Kaepernick by shouting him out during his stage performance in NYC.

Could this be Jay’s way of supporting the NFL boycott after the booting of Kaepernick and Ezekiel?

TheSource.com will update this story as the details become available.

Hov a real one

I was just having a discussion about this...Lady Gaga's show doesn't compare to Prince's or MJ's performances.....here is a reminder The best to ever do it! Lady Gaga..you serious? lol

Again, you're making a very offensive generalization that black people have not a fukking clue what music sounds like if it's not the music they're accustomed to. That is ignorant as hell. It's a show that over a billion people around the world watch. Stop acting butt hurt because catering specifically to a very small segment of the billion + that will watch the show is not on their minds. Jay-Z is one of those rare artists in hip-hop that everyone knows or knows of. Have common sense. Throughout the world, the hip-hop superstars are pretty much limited to: Biggie, 2Pac, Jay-Z, Eminem and then after that it varies to a lesser extent (Run DMC, 50 Cent, Drake, Lil Wayne, Nelly, OutKast, Fugees).

you had no idea who Taylor Swift was before the Kanye incident. Fine, no problem. Notice how after that incident she went from doing arenas to doing stadiums. You don't fukk with her shyt, but you know who she is now. I'll ask you this: She (as well as some others) can go out and sell out big stadiums and arenas with no problem by themselves as a headliner. How many artists do you listen to that can do that?

"Their grass is greener cause their always raking in more. Oh nah, nah, nah...nah...nah!"

Hov!

 

[iceberg_is_on_fire]

Bingo. The crowd is really more of a pop crowd. They wouldn't be hyped for Jay-Z that much. Chris Brown would kill it but like people said, white folks are mad at him.

Breh, dude headlined Glastonbury and he murdered it

 

[King Karim]

Outkast did it first....

you jay stans are hilarious. yea she needed jay maybe in 2002 but after that black album roles reversed. beyonce is the mj of this generation..without her jays mainstream appeal is done.

i wouldnt be surprised if beyonce handlers will arrange her a more influential husband very soon.

Wow. You can't be a male with this goosipin ass bird shyt.

High level trolling. I actually think youve bought into your shyt.






Aye... Yall gotta watch this shyt .









Further proof he is NOT built for the superbowl audience without A LOT of help. And that's not a knock. Few rappers are built for that.
