In Case You Missed It

Posted by Bossip Staff

Jay-Z TRL 11.12.07

Jay-Z and MSN has made it so fans can view the taping of his sold out American Gangster concert in New York online:

Starting on November 19, fans can visit music.msn.com/jayz to access the concert for free. The free online broadcast gives fans the chance to witness Jay-Z, who sold out his five-date American Gangster tour in less than 5 minutes. Jay-Z’s American Gangster moved over 440,000 copies its first week in stores, tying Elvis Presley’s record for the artist with the most #1 albums, placing them behind The Beatles, who have 19 #1 releases.

Great it’s about time all those dollars people are shoveling out buying records and paying for concert tickets are being used for something.  Good for Hov, we glad to see that his album is doing better than Kingdom Come, now he can officially go out with a bang for real.  Retirement after making history is better than retirement after putting out mediocrity.

  15. Mary J Blige

    LMAO @ 440,000 records sold in a week!!!!Weak! I did 700,000.

    ALL HAIL THE QUEEN OF HIP-HOP SOUL

    Mary x


  16. pretty much


  17. and MTW….LMAO

  18. popup

    He was said to be fond of internet recently. Some of his female fans found him on a millionaire&celebs dating club meetrich.com. He has a personal account there with his handsome pictures, blog and something about his albums…In his friend circle, some other stars can be found there. Of course, many hot girls join in his circle. One of girls there said that she often joked, even flirt with each other.


  19. I might be mad if I paid for a ticket and now they are putting the concert online for free!! I’m not catching the sense that would make, I understand that those who didn’t get tickets could see the show but if you bought a ticket you wasted your money unless you just want to be there in person but it would seem like you wasted your money when you could have seen the concert live for free……I predict a lot of ticket scalping for this concert!

  20. AND...

    BOSSIP staff make up your minds. First y’all talking about how he needs to stay retired and now saying it’s good. Y’all some fence straddlers.

  21. stan-b-gone

    watching a concert online aint nothing like experiencing the real thing. but its a good look.

    how do yall figure this album is doing better than KC? its been out for 1 week. wtf. snap judgement much?

  22. Things that make u go Hmmmm

    He looks like a damn fool in that outfit. Wonder if Larry Johnson laid that out for him to wear…. Things that make u go Hmmmmmm….

  23. RocCity

    Ya’ll hoes need to stop hatin on Jay. His swagger is so grown you don’t even understand it so STF UP!!!

  24. lesa

    @ And

    Bossip writers not changing tune. They still think he should retire, just now that he is at the top of his game, it’s best to go out at your best than retire with a moderate album.

    @Stan-b-gone.

    Did better than KC in its first week not overall. That’s how I read it.

  25. Almost Famous

    kc was wack anyway. american gangster is like 3x better than kc

  26. Black Friday

    LESA AND STAN-B-GONE:

    IT’S DOING BETTER THAN KINGDOM COME REVIEW WISE. KINGDOM COME SOLD A WHOLE LOT MORE IN IT’S FIRST WEEK. BUT BEING THAT THIS ALBUM IS BEING CALLED A CL*****IC ALBUM ALREADY, IT WILL PROBABLY SELL MORE RECORDS IN THE LONG RUN.

  27. karma

    My opinion on Jay is still up in the air. He is not ugly like most want to say.. He isn’t handsome either but he is Sexy. & the things he could probably do with those lips… goodness, lol

  28. karma

    too much is happening with that outfit, army jacket on the inside & is that a scarf or a bandana around his neck, the jacket looks too small and the sneakers don’t seem to match with the rest of the outfit… Jay you still sexy you just are having a fashion mishap.

  29. Mrs

    drip lip again- tuck it in, mate. he he

  30. AND...

    @ And

    Bossip writers not changing tune. They still think he should retire, just now that he is at the top of his game, it’s best to go out at your best than retire with a moderate album.

    ________________________________________

    They are changing tunes. First they say I thought he was retired, he needs to stay retired, blah, blah, and then when the album came out talking about how it wasn’t any good and now they saying oh he doing something good now that he’s back and he can just retire again. Please!!


  31. Kingdom Come sold around 750k in its first week…thi is a hot album..but by the numbers Kingdom Come pushed more..

  32. lesa

    @Black Friday

    Well, bossip writers need to specify in terms of how the album did “better” than KC. B/C And…, I, and probably many posters are just as confuse with how the album did “better” than KC. Never would’ve known it meant reviews.

    @And

    Ok, I see you’re point with changing tunes. But I still see it as they want him to retire. I think we can agree with that.

  33. Jus Another Opinion

    Damn that is jacked up you have people who spent $1,500.00 on a ticket and I get to see the damn show for free online in the comfort of my living room. Oh well shyt happens. LMAO!

    Where is Coop?

  34. Jus Another Opinion

    Coop this is nicca J you should have been the first to comment.Lol

  35. Just Sit And Be Pretty

    CubaLinda, thanks for the update. As a PR practitioner, I’m always interested in how these kinds of situations play out. What a coup for your brother, this’ll be another great thing to add to his resume.

    Good for Jay, I’m definitely gonna check it out…for free!! :-)

  36. persona

    Didn’t this album sell LESS than Kingdom Come? How exactly is he doing betteR?

  37. scorpio

    it’s bugged to me how many people say he needs to dress his age. clearly you’re not fans, if you were you would know that he’s consistenly coming correct with his outfits. dude looks great in a suit. if he wants to be casual and don some jeans/sneakers i don’t have a problem with that at all.

    however, KARMA makes a great point. i’m not feeling this get up at all.

  38. Velle

    Jay z is carrying hip hop once again and Bossip continues to hate! lol I love it i think jay should buy this website and fire all the haters! Why cant we support a black man when he’s on top? Why does he have to quit when he’s still killing the game and kicking the man who stole rock and roll in the nuts! Hip hop is the most hated genre of music and now its on top! So what does Bossip do? Hate hate and hate! lol keep doing ya thing HOV! WHo cares what he’s wearing he’s made more money in a month then any of us on this site will make in a life time. Anything that comes out of your mouth is hate, nothing else so be proud of that!

  39. TopThat!

    Believe me. It is way better to be there than to see it on ur little computer screen. You idiot!


  40. Jay sending messages….the dollar is dead. He’s a trendsetter for flashing the euros.

  41. shaded

    umm, who cares? and plus he’s too old to be dressing like that.

  42. Karee

    why does he have that fruity looking scarf on?? looks like he’s been playing in Kanye’s closet again….I normally dig his gear, but I think he should’ve looked in the mirror and started over

  43. damn

    Damn! Let this man live. Who cares what he’s wearing?

  44. Dalia

    This dude is simply too old to dress like this. And my 3 year old is able to keep his sneakers tied. So what’s Jay’s excuse?
