Jay-z rumoured for Logies performance?

[rick James]

Anyone else read this, it was either hte aria's or the logies, I can't remember, which one is held in october?

Anyway, the rumour is that seeign as jigga man's show is on 30th October andthe logies/arias is the night after, and Beyonce is rumoured to be coming out with Jigga (that's his beyotch - respect) that Jay-z might perform at the event as well.

Would be good to finally have a decent artist at the logies, but if it's at the aria's I'm worried he'll embarrass every single Australian Hiphop artist there to the nth degree - not to mention there will be no doubt some washed up bogan rock band will crack the sads.

Either way, it will make one of these events worth watching for once.

I seen his recent Grammy's performance and it was fantastic. He did Encore/Numb with the dude from Linkin Park then the song took a twist when Paul McCartney joined them for a hip hop version of Yesterday. It was one case of music being universal and as many detractors as it had, I found alot more respect for what Jay Z and the boys do.

A decent artist, yes, rJ, but the song he'll perform won't be...what's his latest single?

Get him to perform something off Reasonable Doubt or Blueprint then I'll be happy

Jay retired from making music (well, retired to become President of DefJam) so he won't have a new single.

He has good stuff on all of his albums, and I reckon they're all good for different reasons - but my top 3 is definitely RD, Blueprint and The Black Album (his live album with the roots was awesome too).

I'd love to see him do 99 problems or Dirt off your shoulder, but would absolutely lose it if he did Dead Presidents, Ain't No fellow or Heart of The City (ain't no love).

Considering Beyonce might be there, they'll probably do Crazy in Love or perhaps chuck Beyonce in for Mary J Blige (and Beyonce will no doubt look inferior in comparison to MAry, as everyone does) and do some Jigga material.

WA ROO - Jay-z is to Hiphop what The Beatles are to rock and roll, basically.
