That 200 million dollar re up was for Jay z and not Rocnation was it not?

and yes he sign deals that he has obligations to meet. you think live nation is giving jay z 200 million dollars cause he's married to Beyonce?

That retirement was a publicity stunt. come on man
They give him money cause he's known to make a lot of money, they are tightly knitted partners in Roc Nation, they obviously don't think that he's gonna Jay Electronica them. There's obligations but those does not have to include a recoup for tours. And even if it did, recoup means that you have to recoup initial investment before you can earn. Not that you have to recoup or you go to jail.

And how can it be an publicity stunt, when he shut down his label and took a real job.
Jay-z had been talking about that retirement shyt since 97, I know some of you weren't really hiphop heads back then but Jay is a real person. Real people over/underestimate themselves and change their minds. I thought I was gonna party less, Hov thought he could stop rapping, as simple as that.

Jay z has been pulling tours out of his ass since he partnered with Rocnation. come on man
No rapper was that tour heavy in 2002 :dahell:

He did a tour 2003, 2004 straight after his presidency with Def Jam he did 2 and then signed to Roc Nation and kept on the same pace.

Does Jay-z look like the dude that says no to 50 million bucks in 50 days doing what he loves?

Tell me exactly what you think would happen if he didn't tour. Tell me what has happened to any artist that didn't drop shyt or flopped after their deal. The only reason Roc Nation can give Jay that type of deal is because the last deal, in which shyt was paid out periodically over 10 years. This is is probably that too and they can drop him when they want to.

because "performer" is a disambiguated word - some people take it to mean what the person is doing on stage, others think it's just' singing ability, some think it's both. as far as what goes on on the stage, janet >>> bey.
When did you see Janet and Beyoncé ?

Yep at this point unless they are doing all stadiums, it's just a money grab.
There was mad articles going into complex pricing and shyt with Hov's tour, Live Nation done hired scientists to price the big artists shyt as high as possible.
If 2000 seat at 2000 buck each gives the most profit, I feel that they might do it :scust:

Hov used to be for the people :mjcry:


A money grab is just jumping around on stage for an hour with no set. Beyoncé will give you a show for 2 1/2 hours straight. She puts so much effort into her shyt, especially for her and her dancers to be in sync the whole night

Agreed. Beyoncé is the hardest working woman in showbiz.

I’m going because people who’ve seen MJ preform have said Beyoncé is better than he was. Also, Hov is one of the GOATS. This is the perfect couple outing.:yeshrug:

Sparking blunts in the shade.

A few people I know personally one of them being someone whose music opinion I respect greatly and also Charlagmane said something along the lines of people he knows in the business who said Beyoncé > MJ in that regard.

Again I’m not a Beyoncé fan I just respect her talent and understand that she might be able of taking the performance crown, not only that, I know that if she came before MJ people would have the same :dahell: reactions if someone suggested that he might be better than her.
