INTERVIEW: Jay-Z. Zane Lowe. Part 1: Magna Carta Holy Grail
I don't think that I've ever seen a JayZ interview were I didn't come out a little bit more smarter by the end of it. Beyond being an incredible artist, JayZ's businesses sense as well as his personality make him a very powerful figure for inspiration in our society. I enjoyed every minute of this interview. ~alx.O
MUSIC NEWS: MTV releases their list all the nominees for this years VMA's at Barclays (Take a look)
When JayZ said he'd bring the world to brooklyn, I think its safe to say that he definitely meant it. For those who didn't already know, Mtv will be holding their annual award show in Brooklyn at the Barclays arena this year. And as per usual they've released their list of nominees for each category, which you can just below here. Idk, I have a feeling that this years show might be a special one. For one, we all get to see the Barclays in that light and two, celebrities from all over the world will be in brooklyn, thats kinda dope on many levels. ~alx.O
