: In what has to be a sad moment in the history of hip hop, MediaTakeOut.com is hearing whispers that Jay Z's concert in Glastonbury is on the verge of being a HUGE FLOP.

Here's what UK newspaper the Sun is reporting:

The hip-hop star is confronting apathy from gig-going Brits who are refusing to snap up tickets for his three shows. There are still thousands of seats available for his headline slot at Glastonbury on June 28...

Promoters are worried about so many unsold tickets. A source said: “It costs thousands of pounds to put on a gig at Milton Keynes. “It’s imperative to sell it out if the organizers are to return a profit on it. They’re still way off shifting all the tickets and fear they might take a bath on it.”

We may have officially reached the end of the hip hop era....

girlygirl

The rappin' business man thing ain't working!


blueaquaqueen

Oh well he is still filthy rich! Top 100! LOL


voodoolady

just like yesterday when yall suggested that ashantis album would flop, yall seem to forget that we are in a recession and even in the UK they are feeling a pinch...am i the only one that notices the price at the pump?? who can afford cd's & concerts?? SMH...no indication of their popularity...


njfynest106

AHAHA HOV SEE KARMA IS A BYTCH. I GO AND SEE HIS CONCERTS AND HIS AZZ WONT ADD ME TO HIS MYSPACE.


MTOSUX

they dont know what they are missing

completelyfreeiphone.blogspot.com


DREADEDBRUH21

ITS ALL GOOD.....IT WONT HURT HIS FINANCES AT ALL.


CORI

He's still making his money regardless...how much is the tickets over there??


rocstar23

Thats crzy. Jay is the best rapper alive. Its all good, hes got so many things going for him, its the people in UK's loss if they dont see his show. But I do agree with voodoolady, the pump is kicking my *ss!!



nicolec0607

i'm personally not a fan of his at all. i thought he had retired? he needs to sit his big lip @$$ down somewhere. but hey, i wish i had his money.


365days

THE HIGHER YOU GO THE HARDER YOU FALL!!!!

JAY-Z HAS BEEN FOREVER CLAIMING HE WAS THE BEST (COULD ONLY LAY CLAIM TO SUCH WHEN BIGGIE AND TUPAC WERE MURDERED - YEAH JAY I SAID IT) BUT YOU GET TO THE TOP AND THERE IS ONLY ONE PLACE TO GO........ALL THE WAY DOWN....AND IT BEGINS. HE'S A FAKE GANSTER AND THE EUROPEAN MARKET DOESN'T BUY INTO THAT '*** WANNA BE HARD' B.S.

JAY-Z ISN'T 'THE MAN' AS SO MANY OF YOU BRAIN WASHED FANATICS CLAIM HE IS....HE HAS DONE NOTHING IN HIS CAREER THAT WAS MONUMENTAL OR VISIONARY. HE'S A COPY CAT....BIGGIE'S FLOW AND EXPRESSIONS, AND LYRICAL FORMATIONS

NOBODY WAS EVEN PAYING ANY REAL ATTENTION TO HIM WHEN BIGGIE WAS STILL ALIVE, AND THAT'S BECAUSE BIGGIE RAN NEW YORK AND WAS THE ORIGINAL.

SOOOO HIS DECLINE IN RECORD SALES DOESN'T SURPRISE ME ON BIT. THE EUROPEAN MARKET LOOK AT MUSIC AS AN ART FORM, EVEN HIP-HOP MUSIC. AND JUDGING FROM HIS LYRICAL CONTENT IN THE PAST YEARS, A MUSICAL ARTIST HE IS NOT.

HE'S AN EX-DRUG DEALER WHO FINANCED HIS WAY INTO A RAP CAREER, OF THE MONEY HE MADE ON DRUG ADDICTS.

YEAH I SAID IT....WHAT!??!!!

YOU ALL KNOW I'M RIGHT.

DECLINE IN JAY-Z'S TICKET SALES.....LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO


butta

MTO....we did not need the close up.


Champ1

"We may have officially reached the end of the hip hop era" LOL What kind of statement is that?

That's in ENGLAND so what do you expect? Hiphop is huge in America not in England. Most rappers are far from mainstream in the UK. The only rappers over there that do pretty good are 50 Cent Eminem and Kanye West.

Jay-z is a big star in America and his concerts are doing just fine but There's a world outside America and overseas is another story. He's not a big star over there and has never sold a lot of records and would've never been able to sell out big concerts not even 4-5 years ago when he was at his best.

Jay-z should stick to do small shows in the UK instead of thinking he's huge and can do concerts like a rockstar in Europe.


tempertease

@ butta we sure didnt! yall needed that close up of me!!! anywayz jay z is turning into JARULE HIS TIME IS UP REAL SOON


everymansdream

i love j-hova...but it may be time for him to just really retire and let thes young dudes do they thing. He should start looking for talent in the tri-state area to help bring hip hop back to New York.


MDL219

Stop saying he is hip-hop he aint been hip-hop since reasonable doubt. He is commerical as they come. He has lost his luster so long ago its not funny. He 42 years old and still rapping. Please get a grip camel. Real hip-hop still lives on it just is not main stream. As long as NAZ is alive the essence of what hip-hop is truly about will never die. As far a the industry is concerned hip-hop died as soon as solider Boy became a big thing. Id go to a Brand Nubian concert before I pay it see him.


shauneGirl

HE WILL SURVIVE TRUST ME........MOVING ON TO THE NEXT CONCERT JAY !!! SWAY


focus

No, the Hip-Hop era isn't over. The economy is as bad in England as it is here and people are not going to fork over thousands of dollars for concert tickets any longer for these expensive artists. They make the bulk of their income while touring well, it's time to go to the drawing board and figure out a way to either decrease the price of tickets or not tour at all.

Anyway, I thought Jay said he retired already?


model_chic1

I DO NOT CARE THIS IS WHAT HE GETS. I AGREE WITH 365 DAYS. I AM A FEMALE BUT MY FAV RAPPERS ARE NAS AND TUPAC.


jaybaby

@365 days- Don't be an idiot. You must have alot of time on your hands today.

@Topic- Glastonbury? Maybe these *** promoters should skope out the location to see if anyone has actually heard of Jay-Z. Where the fu*k is Glastonbury? That's what they get. He needs to stay his *** in the US where he's sure to sell out.


HardCore

If those ***'in tickets weren't $60 to $700 maybe he could sellout his shows. Concerts today aren't geared to the 'common' person $$$


PrettyBrownGirl85

***... Stay in the states!!


BKLYNBABY

I'd like to know why MTO hates on Jay so much? Is it because he's young, rich and successful and you all aren't? Is it because he has a beautiful wife? I think it's jealousy


365days

@jaybaby ....INSTEAD OF CALLING ME AN IDIOT WHY DON'T YOU LOOK UP WHERE GLASTONBURY IS.

SEEMS LIKE YOU GOT THE TIME ON YOUR HANDS GET IN AN ENCYCLOPEDIA

LET ME SHED SOME KNOWLEDGE ON YOU GLASTONBURY IS IN SOMERSET, ENGLAND.



shellface

we reached the end of the hip hop era cuz Jay Z can't sell out tickets in the UK?! Puh leeze. He is only as fly as his competition, main stream and that list is ***. There are plenty of underground cats that would chew ol camel cowboy up. Hip hop is bigger than one man, especially Jay Z. stop riding this dudes dyck. He's just aaiiight these days.


The_Shoparazzi

who can lead this camel to the pasture of top-grossing ticket sales? sounds like only 50 and eminem can quinch this thirst.


LongLegged

I agree with 365days, J always been some garbage. Specially when Pac and Biggie waas alive, you didn't hear anything from him. They died and he stepped into there spot because no one else did (LOVE Snoop the whole time).

J ripped off many Go-Go band here in DC (Rare Essence), check out Essence myspace page and the song *** Senerio and listen to the makeup. He has been whack for years, just glad people starting to realize it. Remember on the Blueprint when Em guest on J track and ran his a*s off of it....lol

The REAL Mr. Carter hit stores on June 10 with that HOT joint Tha Cater III. Weezy F-Baby!


kleu

I used to live in the UK and they're not really into JayZ like that over there. Plus the UK is insanely expensive so if they're having the same economic problems we are the last thing people are gonna spend money on is concert tickets.


jaybaby

Thank you for proving my point.


coop1974a

@365days

@LongLegged

@Topic

Stop the hate if you read up you will see that this event has alread sold a few hundred thousand tickets and the problem is that some rockers are complaining because the do not want ANY type of HIP HOP (BLACK'S yes there is racism in the UK) at this event. Stop having hate flakes for breakfast and learn some facts.

@365days

Also if you were really making good point you would not need to post the same thing over and over and over.


callicrew

***, THIS AINT GOT NOTHING TO DO WITH IT BEING THE END OF THE HIP HOP ERA.

BUT IT'S GOT EVERYTHING TO DO WITH JAYZ'S MUSIC IS ***, AND THEM BRITS REFUSE TO BE BRAINWASHED LIKE WE HERE IN AMERICA IS OVER THIS NIGG*! THEY AREN'T ALL THAT IMPRESSED WITH HIS MUSIC, AND NEITHER AM I SINCE THE BLUEPRINT ALBUM. MAYBE IF HE WENT BACK TO HIS ROOTS.

KEEP IN MIND HE ONLY SOLD OUT MADISON GARDEN DUE TO THE PUBLICITY STUNT OF "RETIRING". ALL THEM PEOPLE WOULDN'T HAVE COME IF THEY KNEW HE WAS GONE BE RAPPING TOMORROW. THAT ***# KNEW WHAT HE WAS DOING. HE JUST WANTED TO BE ABLE TO SAY HE SOLD IT OUT. I BET OTHER RAPPERS CAN DO THE EXACT SAME THING IF THEY HEADLINED IT AS THEIR LAST SHOW...NOPE, I WASN'T IMPRESSED.


callicrew

PLUS, HOW CAN HE KEEP CALLING HIMSELF THE BEST RAPPER ALIVE, WHEN HE KEEP SELLING UNDER OTHER RAPPERS, LIKE KANYE, 50 CENT, LUDACRISS AND T.I.? SOMEONE EXPLAIN.


tanika1

I HATE THAT PICTURE OF HIM. MTO PLEASE STOP POSTING THAT $HIT. IT IS SCARING ME. LMAO


tanika1

AND HIS SHAPEUP IS LEANIN. LMAO


callicrew

SOME OF YOU CLAIMING HE'S THE BEST RAPPER, WELL HOW COME HE WASN'T HITTING WHEN TUPAC AND BIGGIE WERE RAPPIN? A REAL HIP HOP STAR GONE SHINE NO MATTER WHAT. NOBODY REALLY KNEW THIS NEGRO BACK THEN CAUSE HE TRULY WAS MEDIOCRE, AND WHEN HIP HOP WORLD LOST THE TWO BEST EVER TO DO HIP HOP (TUPAC AND BIGGIE) IT LEFT THE WORLD STARVING, AND JAYZ STEPPED UP, OF COURSE WITH BIGGIES STOLEN LYRICS, MAKING THE SAME CLAIMS BIGGIE MADE, SO PEOPLE EMBRACED HIM.

JAY IS A FAKE AND PHONEY AND EVERYBODY DIDN'T BUY IT. WHEN HE WENT COMMERCIAL, I WAS DONE WITH HIM. YOU CAN'T BE A THUGGED OUT GANGSTER AND BE A COMMERCIAL ARTIST AT THE SAME TIME.

SO TO NAS, BOO, KEEP BEING U, AND DON'T BACK DOWN TO NOBODY. SOME OF US REALLY APPRECIATE THE REALNESS.


JusEvil

Who Cares - Dudes keep sayin that he has retired as an artist - maybe ppl took him seriously this time

Yo KID enjoy all the mills you've made -and your wife and have some kids and Quit tryna milk a Rock


boundth

HOVA! HOVA! HOVA!


boundth

I don't care what anyone says. Jay-Z is da man!


MRBAKA

So there the bunny went with out a clue of how many oil tickets the shrew would sell. "Only a matter of time," rang the fowl as he hurriedly gathered up a cusp-like basket.

Dangerous? Well if you believe that magnetism is set by the hereforth, then you may have the tokens that require my satisfaction.

@365Days-- Do you have tokens? @Hrapbrown-- Follow them lately? @butta-- *** it?

Yes. You all have pork, but without utensils, your journey is an awkward one.



KelleeKell

***...Hip-Hop is dead just because they ain't buying his tickets in Europe??? A little dramatic don't you think? HOV is still the man and always will be. He's accomplished so much within the hip-hop community and ooutside of it. I don't think this will hurt him or Hip-Hop that *** bad.

Matter fact...the word of the day is HOVA!!!


AKeysWannabee

Don't nobody want to see his ugly azz in concert anyways..


destinedfan

I'm feelin you @ KelleeKell....these haters get too dam happy when they THINK somebody is fallin off!!! Even if Jay never sells another record or concert ticket he's still the man. Only a stupid, hatin, jealous mofo would rejoice in thinkin someone is down on their luck!!! Just like bee jays not goin anywhere unless he wants to! Ha ha ha at yall stupid a5ses. And duh ticket sales are low, *** the economy is a *** right now, so as much as i love me some jay if he has a concert and them tickets are too high....ima have to watch it on dvd! LOL and one last thing @ 365 days tupac, biggie, and *** near every other rapper did the same *** you claim jay did/does but i guess since their dead it's ok? NO!!!! GET REAL!!!!! No one said jay z was a *** saint....none of these celebs are so GET OVER IT!!!!!!


lilsaint

champ1 - In the past Jay Z has had sold out concerts in the big Uk arena's and has had extra bonus dates added.

jaybaby - I don't think you get the whole concept of Glastonbury... its a "rock" music festival where people from up and down the uk, and other countries go and camp in some place for like a couple of days (why, i do not no.) So merely just checking out the location to see who has heard of Jay Z isn't enough. The UK know about Jay-Z (including those that dont particularly listen to the hip hop genre, i just dont think it was a particuly good choice for this festival unless he was collaborating with Linkin Park (for example.)

Main reason tickets probably aren't selling is money, like others have said the UK is too expensive, prices are constantly rising. Things purchesed in terms of clothes, music e.t.c are almost double the price over here than in the states... i'm not sure about the cost of a concert tickets though. But if i was a US artist i'd be damanding a hell of a lot of pounds for a concert over here because the dollar is so week.


TROOPER

"END OF HIP HOP ERA" MTO *** THE *** UP OKAY! CUZ U SOUND JUST LIKE A WHITE PERSON THAT HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH HIPHOP BUT JUST WANT TO MAKE A STATEMENT LIKE UNO HIP HOP. *** THE *** UP OK. IT'S NO FLOP TO JAY-Z. HE WAS JUST ON [SPAM]HIP HOP SAYING THAT NOW IT'S NOT ABOUT THE MONEY IT'S ABOUT JUST DOING A SHOW IN A PLACE HE NEVER BEEN. SO STOP THE MADNESS.


4daluvofprina

Oh well.


TROOPER

@ 365days

*** UP WITH THE ***. PASTING ALL THAT *** MORE THEN ONCE DOESN'T MAKE A POINT. WASHED UP HAHAHA YEA HE MUST CRUSHED YO FAVORITE RAPPER. THE MAN JUST SIGNED A $150 MIL CONTRACT, NETS INVESTOR, BUILDING THE J HOTEL CHAIN, 40/40 CLUB SUCCESS, MARRIED TO BEY, CLOTHING LINE, BOUT TO BRING OUT A MORE MATURE LINE CALL BELLE WEAR (SISTER LINE TO ROCAWEAR) WORTH $650 MILLION AND WHAT RAPPER DIDN'T USED DRUG OR HUSTLE MONEY TO GET STARTED IN THE RAP GAME??? EAZY-E, MASTER P, IRV, WHITES, BLACKS, I MEAN STOP THE HATE. THE ROCKERS JUST DON'T WANT NO BLACKS ON THE SHOW U FOOL.


SEXY-CHRISSY40

tgif!!!!!!!


w8keup

365days said it all best.....

who care about Jay anyway he is whack 40 and dressing 14. Plus why does hip hop have to be a certain thing music evovles and it changes. When Run DMC made walk this way that was a change but it is still hip hop. People like Soulja Boy b/c the music is hip and fun and you can dance to it most ppl want to dance when they go out and listen to something that make them move just b/c Soulja Boy don't rap like Biggie or Pac don't make his music not hip hop its just a different type. I don't think Soulja Boy is a lyricist but hell I don't think Jay is either Nas, Andre 3000, and Big Boi are the best lyricist out today. I don't care what nobody say Jay cannot touch Nas ANDRe 300 nor Big Boi when it comes to lyrics. Jay is whack and just been overrated by the media.


destinedfan

*** @ trooper, seems like we agree on er thang except the *** issue....LOL these haters better gone somewhere!!!!!


KingRamses2U

Can you spell O-V-E-R-E-X-P-O-S-E-D?? I am sick of him AND his wifey. Besides, Jigga fell out of favor with me with that stupid-@ssed "American Gangster" record. Denzel, too for making the movie. Why do we have to glorify drug hustlers? That's whats wrong with these damned young-uns today. All their 'heroes' are thugs, murderers and drug pushers. Or either cRAPPERS or NBA players. Ridiculous.


Cocokandy

OMG 365 - Go eat sh!t and die!!! Im sorry that you are such a JayZ hater... *But* he LYRICALLY is outdoing ALOT of catz out here in the hip-hop game like "Soulja Boy" ?! I mean WTF is that?! .... I guess what you would call hip-hop?!

Much Respect to Biggie and all......But he only dropped 2 ALBUMS** before his death..

1. Ready 2 Die & 2. Life After Death.. I have BOTH ALBUMS **Plus underground work he did, AND** His Greatest Hits album. I dont see what made his fat a$$ so f^ckin great.. I mean yeah he is *ONE* of the greats BUT NOT the best, by far!!!! Im sorry but....Im gonna have to go w/ Tupac. He released WAAAAAAY more music, before Biggie even got put on like that! After Tupac, yes comes none other than JAY ***^CKIN Z!!!!!!! He has made more money off of being a smart business man than ANY OTHER HIP HOP ARTIST OUT NOW!!!!!!!!!!! They will NEVER BE ABLE TO TOUCH HIS PAPER!! But honestly there really isnt anything to compare. Biggie Rapped from the streets, he rapped hard-core hood sh!t. Jay Z raps about his money, models, and the "clean and neat side of hustle" So there is a difference. Get off Biggs *** 365days.. U sound like his b!tch!!!!

AND THATS MY WORD[SPAM]!!


darknlovely1

MTO!!YALL SURE SHOW SOME OF THE WORSE PICS OF PEOPLE...SO WHAT IF HIS TICKET SALES DIDNT DO WELL IN UK, HE'S STILL A RICH SUCCESSFUL MAN....


TROOPER

@ destinedfan

LOL, NAWWW U GOOD WIT ME LOL. THEY JUST NEED TO STOP HATIN ON A MAN THAT'S GIVING HIPHOP A SECOND LIFE LINE TO STAY LIVING AND HE GIVING HIP HOPPERS A RETIREMENT PLAN WITH OPTIONS LIKE LIVE NATION, TOURS, HOTELS, BUSINESSES.


destinedfan

LOL I'm already knowin this @ trooper *** saw 'jay z' and 'flop' in the same sentence and got too happy wit they hatin as5es but they better get over it cuz he's not a business man he's a business, man and they need to let him handle his business ***! lol



mzarrogance

folks only ccall him the best because of his net worth. i understand that money means power, but he didn't make that money from record sales. he made it from business deals. so respect his mind, but don't give credit where it isn't due. who was this guy before biggie and tupac were killed? anyone, anyone? right, just another ny rapper.


mzarrogance

@ w8kup - i cosign!


Rocket_Gooner

Lmao!!! MTO so desperate to belittle Jay you quote from the "Sun" newspaper one of Rupert Murdoch's Trashy popular right wing tabloids. Not even fit to wipe your A$$ with .

The "sun" is most popular in the UK for its " Page 3", for all those in the states page three consist of a topless model and i do mean topless in all her glory , nothing but a tabloid with some breasts.

[link to external website removed]

Scroll down to the bottom and you will see what i mean about page 3 !! and MTO takes them serious .

They have been running this story for months and it has nothing to do with jay but more Hip/hop and rap , a genre of music that seems out of place . MTO you are so clueless !! stating "There are still thousands of seats available for his headline slot at Glastonbury on June 2 ". What seats ?

Glastonbury takes place each year in a large field with many different stages for live bands mainly rock , indie some jazz and reggae and other musicians from around the world.

Its happened annually for the last 40 yrs now launching many bands careers namely Rolling Stone/ Black sabbath with Ozzy Osborne and their like.

It was felt that with all these metal heads they would not appreciate rap , with their dirty a$$ grunge. These people camp out on the field for the weekend , over 600,000 attend , so please what seats are their, as these people never sit anywhere other than mud and smoke blunts for the two day event PLZzzzz...!!

Glastonbury is a open air festival any seating is done by the comatose and stoned , MTO get a grip , from a UK brother .


MsVlicious

OH WELL THATS LIFE.


KellsT

As long as Bone Thugs *** Harmony is still around, Hip Hop will never end.


QueenDee

So if album/ticket sales makes you "the best rapper alive", why the hell is Nas still in EVERYBODY'S top 5? Last I checked, hip hop greats had skill, charisma, lyrical prowess, etc. And, say what you want, but Jay's got all of that and then some--as does Nas--and that's why he's one of the greatest of all time. On topic, he's still gonna perform, he still got paid, and the UK just doesn't want him performing because he's hip hop and that festival is rock based. But, all the UK heavyweights over there are looking forward to his show and doesn't understand why everybody's making such a big deal about it. And 365 Days? For somebody who claims to dislike Jay and Bey so much, you're always commenting on them multiple times and submitting 50/11 times. Get of her *** and his *** or just admit you're an undercover stan of Bigga and save yourself the trouble!


gecmoney

more artist getting the big head & not focusing on the people & connecting with & spending money with the people, to promote them as an artist........ sad but true & washed-up don't hate


C_The_Goodfella

@mzarrogance

He's a regular NY Rapper, but Like Biggie, Jay-Z first album was considered a CLASSIC and it went Platinum. Pretty impressive for just some regular nicca who didnt have Puffy pushin him in the 90's LOL!


destinedfan

365....ride nutts much? LMFAO


destinedfan

nuts only has 1 t...my bad...LOL


Bruklyn

SUCK NUTZ MTO AND 365:

THIS ISN'T A FLOP OR A SLIGHT ON JAY-Z. GLASTONBURY AND 02 ARE INDIE FESTIVALS AND THE HALF THE TICKETS ARE SOLD AND HALF AREN'T. ALSO, JAY-Z ISN'T THE ONLY PERSON THE BILL SO STOP PUTTING IT ALL ON HIM. THIS IS NOT NEW NEWS NOR IS IT A SURPRISE THAT THE TICKETS ARE SELLING THIS WAY.

THE HIP HOP FANS BOUGHT THE TICKETS AND THE INDIE ONE'S DIDN'T, PLUS NOEL GALLAGHER IS WRANGLING IN THE INDIE FANS AND ENCOURAGING THEM NOT TO BUY THEM. AGAIN, NO SLIGHT ON JAY-Z AND NO END TO ANY HIP HOP ERA. HIS TICKETS AT ALL HIS OTHER EUROPEAN DATES ARE DOING WELL AS WELL AS HE CAN STILL OUTSELL U.S. ARENAS.

THE HIP HOP ERA HASN'T ENDED AND HOV IS STILL RUNNING THIS RAP ***. BELIEVE ME - FOR THE HEADS THAT ARE ATTENDING THE SHOW, HOV IS GOING TO TEAR THE ROOF OFF THAT B*TCH JUST TO SHOW THEM WHAT THEY PAID FOR AND WHAT THE OTHERS WILL BE MISSING AND IT'LL BE A "TAKE THAT" FOR THE HATERS.

AGAIN, SUCK NUTZ MTO AND 365.


YOUNGHECTIC

not surprised at all. they dont kiss his a$$ like americans over here


Oldenough

I think I'm blind - that's a little to close for comfort.

By way, I thought he retired about 10 years ago - he needs to sit his old behind down and stay behind the desk.


CayennePeppa504

Co-effen signing Voodoolady and 365days. Even w8keup has a point. LOL!!!


The_Princess

Jay-Z and Flop in the same sentence.... This is a joke right?



jlove56

Yea whatever, he still has money. It won't effect him.


nikkiwhite40

Great Posts Ppl! my 2: No, low ticket sales for one long-time artist, outside the U.S. (origin of hip-hop) at a non-hip hop dominated show, with multiple artists, does not reflect on Hip hop as a whole. Thanks for those who posted addlt insight. Also, who can negatively sum up J's career as a whole or lyrical skills? Who can honestly say they haven't loved, and danced to, at least 1 Jay Z hit. On another note, he said he'd retire. He's married now. Time to persue your other business deals. You see L.L., Latifah, Will Smith (bad e.g.) still making records?


notheruser

Camel doesn't sell. They should've known that. He's a has been.


atlstud25

Wow I'm glad the rest of the world is realizing he is just like every other rapper with a few good lyrics. Anybody can make a few hits and anybody can rap about being from the hood, and besides their gas over seas is 8 bucks plus a gallon and jay z is a *** millionaire he should be giving them tickets away greedy ***


HiHaterz01

THE CAMEL SHOULD JUST STICK TO DOING CONCERTS IN THE DESERT... MAYBE THAT MIGHT WORK! HAHAHA


THECHAUFFEUR

ITS LITTLE WAYNE TIME.

COCAINE'S A HELL DRUG


djjay

JAY COULD BUY ALL OF THE REMAINING TICKETS THEN GIVE THEM AWAY TO MEDIATAKEOUT TOP 10 POSTERS OF EACH FALSE ARTICLE EVER WRITTEN SINCE 2006, ALONG WITH FIRST CLASS ROUNDTRIP AIRLINE TICKETS AND HIS POCKETS WILL STILL BE DEEP!...IN OTHER WORDS, IT'LL BE AIGHT...LOL


Girl_Genius

when a negro says he gon retire and then retires then that said negro needs to stay retired!!! he gon be wearing dentures *** walking wid a stick talking bout rocafella! u shoulda stayed retire!!! make beyonce get dat paper while u be reclining talking bout "back in my days...." sheesh!


herewegoagain

Oh well, that's what he gets for lying about retiring. Him and his wife deserve each other anyway. Beyonce lied to her old DC group about staying together when she had intentions on leaving them hi and dry.


TROOPER

JAY-Z FLOP ***, SAYING THAT IS LIKE SAYING ICE CUBE IS A FLOP. *** JAY AND ICE CUBE TOOK RAP TO ANOTHER LEVEL OF ENTERTAINMENT. SHE JAY LET HIS NET WORTH BE KNOWN SOME WHAT BUT CUBE JUST LAY IN THE CUT AND STILL SHOP AT PLACES LIKE COSTCO'S FOR DISCOUNTS BUT PAID OUT THIS WORLD. U FEEL ME! SO 365DAYS AND ALL THESE OTHER STANS NEED TO LOOK AND THE MIRROR AND REPEAT THESE WORDS.

"I'M A STAN AND I NEED HELP"


KEEYSHAJ50
