What is with these “older” rappers throwing up signs? Yeah yeah i know it’s the whole roc thang for all u Jay Z sac chasers before you jump in my case. Still, dude is 39, isn’t it time to evolve and move onto the next level? I do dig that he put a concert together for the widows and orphans of 9/11 victims. That was very BIG of him.

THAT WAS A HOT SHOW RIGHT THERE….THE ROC SIGN WITH THE HANDS HAS BEEN THERE THING SINCE DAY ONE…IT’S THE ROC…LOL…MISSLYRICIST…WHY DO YOU SAY OLDER RAPPERS….HE’S A RAPPER…YOUNG FOLK NEED TO RESPECT THE ONES THAT CAME BEFORE THEM….THAT’S WHY THE YOUTH IS ALL F**KED UP…NO RESPECT…..IT WAS A HOT SHOW THOUGH…THE WHITE BOA JOHN MAYER…KILLED THE GUITAR!

GREAT SHOW JAY U KILLED IT !!!

i dont know how much the tickets were, i watched it on Fuse, but the fans that went got thier monies worth. that was a great show. good job.

Im really not a Jay Z fan but that concert he put on was ON POINT!!! My heart went out 2 all the vicitims families..it almost brought tears 2 my eyes wen he playe FOREVER YUNG (my fav on tha album) and showed pictures of tha lost ones on the towers…They lost their lives so we cud LIVE OURS!

I’m sorry but…JAY-Z, Rhianna,Beyonce, Kanye West, give me the CREEPS!!!!!!!!!!

in response to Misslyricist… as a “lyricist” you should know that what Jay-Z has been doing and his whole M.O. these days is to show the very “next level” to hip hop and grown-a$$-manhood that needs to be exhibited these days, that male emcees, especially these young ones who are doing God-knows what

hip hop/rap has become too commercial and instantly gratifying… not about real skill or artistry or passion… the most popular songs are commodities that are cute and catchy for the moment and will fade away just as soon as they came… the mass media and popular culture are pulling away from Hip Hop whereas hip hop used to be the commodity that everyone needed to push their products. ppl are branching out to other types of music like indie rock, alternative, etc etc. Jay-Z has elected himself to issue the wakeup call.

hip hop itself is an aging culture. it’s getting old. it’s no longer just for kids and shouldn’t be. it’s a great thing that those who have made themselves powerhouses in the game can maintain their presence and show the younger emcees how it’s done… to be a lasting presence. not just have one cute hit and fade into obscurity.

ITS THE MANS COMPANY HOW COME WHEN BLK MEN DO THINGS ITS YOUNG OR WE TO OLD FOR THAT WHEN WHITE GUYS DO DHIT ITS CUZ THEY CAN AND WHO CARES DAMN S**T PEOPLE MAKE THE CROSS SIGN ALL DAY AND NEVA GO TO CHURCH ARE THEY HYPOCRITES THSES BLK FEMALES NEED TO GROW THE F**K UP
