Jay-Z just sent this over:

A word from Hov

Last night I performed at the University of Arizona, I had a ball!! Through all the excitement and joking around (as well as the technical difficulties) I missed out on the opportunity to say something important..

On the show as well were Third Eye Blind and Kelly Clarkson.. I thought that to be the oddest pairing EVER but, soon realized, it’s what I’ve always professed..There is NO such thing as BLACK music or WHITE music only GOOD or BAD music..It’s stupid cool to like things that are not like you, and that goes for outside of music.. If you’re an African American you can have a jewish friend. Wait, does Lyor having some Israeli mixed with his jewish count? (Sure they are paranoid but, so are black people after they’ve smoked weed, haaaaa, and plus the JEW fro and the BLUEprint fro are the SAME thing.)

I think concerts like this should happen more often. ( Outside of the one or 2 festivals a year or “Zootopia”) I’m putting that into the universe..next up Taylor Swift and Uncle Murda!!

Sorry I don’t “Tweet” (do I?) so this will have to do..

Love.

    Wow! that’s awesome.

    nice review, hov!!

  • mike

    didnt get the Israel/Jew thing but dats kuul, the internets will be after him real quick.

  • TS

    I’m still waiting for Hov to continue with BP3. I want to here some new stuff.

  • drunken master

    The farther you get from the hood the sillier you become. I bet he wouldn’t be talking like that around 12 years ago.

  • BP3 is coming!!

    Jay should drop the BP3 and make a new tour. hands down, he’s the best live performer ever.

  • Three-1-Zero

    I swear great rappers talking on the internet ruins their mystique some time. But its cool to say that Jay is having fun doing music still.

  • kenny

    LOL @ JAY HES GONNA SWITCH ON SOME KABALAH SHIT SOON .

  • PROPERCP

    “It’s stupid cool to like things that are not like you, and that goes for outside of music.. If you’re an African American you can have a jewish friend. Wait, does Lyor having some Israeli mixed with his jewish count?”

    This is the “IGNORANT SH*T” I DO NOT LIKE! Blacks and Jews have been friends before you and Lyor MORON. ie. Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder, ie. Edgar Brofman Jr. and his lovely black wife, ie. Lenny Kravitz – a product of an black/jewish relationship. Jay-Z needs to jump in a 4.6 with the seats back and bump some OTHER shit that doesn’t cloud his pea brain.

  • LBoogie718

    israeli mixed with jewish? what does he mean does it count.. hes an israeli (nationality) jew (religion/culture)… therefore hes a jew

    those israelis are some PUSHY mofos though and theyll admit it lol .

    zootopia??? what about jingleball?? hahaa. hey i’ll go if you do….

    its all love

    this jew loves u

  • YBE

  • NIckAZ

    I was @ the show on wednesday night not only was it Kelly Clarkson and third eye blind but the Veronicas were right before that, It was the oddest pairing ever but all 12,000+ enjoyed every minute of that show. Hova’s 75 minute performance netted him 10,000 per minute hahaha!!! no seriously it did. HOVA killed it, hell of a show

  • Jer-z

    Jigga needs a barber asap. Pick it out or something, Still the best though. HOVA

    Jay better drop a new album this year thats all i gotta say

  • Polo

    thought this was a album announcement…………………..

  • HOV is a G

  • Trim Flow

    If that’s a recent picture of Hov (which I dont think it could be cause at the Grammy’s he had a low cut) that means he is in fact bacx in album mode so chill y’all, just chill. And BP3? You mean BP4? Which I dont think he would title another album but hey BP4 not BP3.

  • AUHSOJ

    Real shit Hov. Too many times we overlook other types of music because it’s not what our “friends” listen to. Yes black people, I’m talking to you. Don’t get me wrong, other races share similar ignorances, but black people wear that shit like a FUBU jacket. Take that bullshit off.

  • Killa206

    JAY-Z DON’T SPEAK FOR ME. AND THERE IS BLACK MUSIC AND WHITE MUSIC IT’S JUST PEOPLE LIKE HIM WHO SELL ARE MUSIC TO WHO EVERY FUCK THE GAME UP. COUNTRY MUSIC WILL NEVER LET BLACK PEOPLE TAKE THEY SHIT NEVER…..FUCK JAY-Z AND HIS FUCKING THOUGHTS….

  • Flip

    How did this get on the TOP 5? Had me all messed up. Shit is like four years old.

  • Yeezus Christ

    this has been confirmed fake

  • CONCEPTS?!?

    @Kila206,, i understand what your saying, i really do, BUT to tell the truth, us as black people deep-deep inside would love to intergrate, and come together with other races musically, or whatever, its white people who has problems coming together, and blending with black people/culture, so who’s to say Hov wasn’t talking to them subliminally, yeah sure he mentioned black people in his message, thats because were “his” people so of course he’s gonna hold us more accountable outwardly (politically correct) but your taking it as a bash toward us, when that may not be his point.

    @AUHSOJ, i agree with your comment aswell

  • NUTSONYA

    worded wierdly, but TRUE DAT HOV

  • NUTSONYA

    @CONCEPTS!?! I disagree with you, it seems that black people have more trouble integrating with other races musically/ culturally or whatever.. look at how many white rappers there are these days? and how many white people you see listening to hip-hop?
    how many black “rockers” do you see comming up these days? how many black people do you know that even listen to rock? if it wasnt for Lil Wayne/ Odd Future most of these black kids wouldnt even be skateboarding. Why you s “black” people try to flip shit n blame “white” people for everyting? i think Jay Z was saying in general. n just used “african american” as an example, RACE DOESNT MATTER

    and @killa206 you’re a fuckin idiot .. there is good music and bad music ( to whatever your personal preference is) , just like theres smart people n dumb shitheads like you.. Why you wanna keep music segregated to black and white? all youre doing is missing out on good music n keepin race in music, when music should be universal.

  • Real Dude

    wow……what a eureeka moment. He JUST figured out racism is stupid.
    lame

  • Jigga throwing subliminal shots at Ye

  • CONCEPTS?!?

    @NUTSONYA, im speaking from a pshycological point of view, your just focusing from the whole “racial” point of view, do you know how many black people (for years) listen to rock n roll, or country music? ALOT, but either feel they’ll be ridiculed or shun by their own race , or completely not accepted by the white culture, yeah Hootie & blowfish did it, but that was a BRAVE move on his part. which was perfectly cool, but rare. So thats why Hov was speaking in regards to not only one race but ALL.to accept each other. we’re all people and we all wanna be free to fully be ourselves and accepted.
