Jay-Z & Beyoncé Attend D’USSÉ Event

Monday, September 24 2012 11:23 AM EST | Posted by: B.Dot | Posted in: Blog, Paparazzi

What a Sunday afternoon. Hov and Beyonce capped off the summer with a surprise appearance at La Marina restaurant/lounge in Manhattan’s Washington Heights section. With DJ Camillo on the 1s and 2s, guests included Memphis Bleek, Swizz Beatz, Steve Stoute, Ebro, and yours truly. (That’s me on the text dawg).

Over a couple Cubans and endless D’USSE, Hov and I chopped it up (and debated) about everything under the sun. At one point, he chided me for saying Hard Knock Life Vol. 2 was his best album. According to him, the “Holy Trinity” is Reasonable Doubt, The Blueprint, & The Black Album. Fun times. Check out a few pics after the jump.
