December 4TH a Star is Born...

Happy Birthday to the Jigga-man! If you’ve been reading this or any other blog I'm featured on, you know I'm sort of a “Hov-aholic”. It's no secret to anyone who knows me personally or comes in contact with me that Jay-Z's my absolute favorite rapper. I have every album; been to a bunch of his concerts, quote him regularly and partake in countless debates about which one of his albums are the best and "who killed who" on what record with my fellow fans. To be quite frank the guy is amazing. He has great lyrics, metaphors, story telling abilities, incredible flow(s) and not to mention, swagger out the wazoo. From Reasonable Doubt to The Blueprint III to every mix tape, collaboration and beef record in between, it’s been awesome to watch and listen to him evolve. He's also an incredible business man, who's not only invested in his talents, but in the talents of others making him a heavy hitter in the corporate settings of music. He's gone from a kid with a lot of ambition to a massive media conglomerate and living proof that anything really is possible. He's not just a rapper; he's a motivating factor.
