Jay-Z = 39 Years Old With A Bullet.






In Related News: The homie Jay-Z spent his birthday taking in some contemporary arts and culture and scouting out potential investments with the wife in South Beach @ the Miami Art Fair.


CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS: A few years ago, this originally private video, organized by and starring Beyonce Knowles (Before the "Carter" name) alongside a gang of Jay-Z's closest family and friends, leaked to the internet and has since become the things that obscure viral video legends are made of. I mean, how often do Y.O.U. see Beyonce in the middle of Marcy Projects? Right. Anyway, in her cutesy-girlfriend way, Beyonce created this video for "December 4th", 1 of my favorite songs off of the "Black Album", and, what she initially intended as simply a special birthday gift for her man inadvertently became a gift to me and to all those who L.O.V.E. this dope ass song.

Yes, today is Shawn Corey "Jay-Z" Carter's birthday and this video had to be included in the celebration. Much like Jay-Z emerged from the 1993 Lex with, then technologically superior, T.V.'s in the headrest and established himself as an MC par excellence packing 2.2 pounds of raw raps per verse and as the most influential man in pop culture, Livestyle has emerged as a thought leader and a lifestyle guide for all whom aim their ratchets @ a higher tax bracket. Happy Birthday Jay-Z! Real recognize real my nigga ... it's a Brooklyn thing.
