IF U MISSED IT: Watch Jay-Z, Beyonce, Rihanna, Kanye West, and Santogold Perform At Madison Square Garden LIVE 9/11




Jay-Z's concerts are always so layed back. He has his DJ, and himself. Usually walking back and forth spitting rhymes, moving his shoulders to some odd inaudible chord in the instrumental, whilst ushering out various featured artists. His September 11th Charity concert, dubbed "Answer The Call" was no different. It featured cameo's by Rihanna and Kanye West in "Run This Town", Santogold in "Brooklyn (Go Hard), Bridget Kelly in "Empire State of Mind", former def-jam recording artist--> and my twitter crush Constance Howard, Mary J. Blige in a throwback Reasonable Doubt to ensemble, and of course, a short surprise performance by his Mrs. Jay-Z herself, Beyonce Knowles.

His concert was great as always, although I did cringe when Mary J. Blige went gangster and started singing her new single "I'm The One". I thought she was about to pull out a gat and start shootin in the air.Thankfully she just grabbed her crotch a few times. The Run This Town performance was nice and easy, Rihanna sang in a leather leotard getup with faux bullets around her waist. She also premiered her new blonde extensions. In the end, the short Beyonce performance was most exciting for me-- love the little get down at the end, 1:30 seconds.

Had TO POST THIS PIC OF BEYONCE'S MOMMA THROWIN' THE ROC SIGN LAST NIGHT SO FUNNY. Leave her alone!

To Yeezy, Or Not To Yeezy? That is The Question.



To Yeezy, is to be $140 dollars closer to poor. Not to Yeezy, is to have $140 extra bucks in the bank.

Let's be honest, the Kanye West designed Nike Air Yeezy aren't the best looking shoes on the block. They look over padded, and lack the overall balance that the most popular and reliable Mid/high-top footwear models perfect--The Air Force 1, Nike Supra, and Air Jordan models. The Air Yeezy's are not great B-Ball shoes, but um... who wears B-balls shoes for the game anyway?

Here's a good review -
