Say bye bye to the shy Beyonce we’ve known for nearly 15 years. Somewhere her husband Jay-Z is pulling the strings in the background with a whisper in her ear, “Let these women know who’s King.” Read more…

When they’re not perfecting their brands, texting with the POTUS and FLOTUS, or plotting world domination, Jay-Z and Beyoncé deserve some down time to relax and hang out with stars as bright as themselves.

Nostalgia anyone? Jermaine Dupri‘s So So Def 20th anniversary concert brought out not only the former hitmaking labelmates that were 90s staples–Jagged Edge, Kriss Kross, Da Brat, Bow Wow, Xscape and so forth–JD’s good friends Mariah Carey and Jay-Z showed up to crash the party.

A Kanye rant must be included in the ticket price for one of his live shows. London concertgoers were in for a 11 minute treat when Kanye ranted–over a beat of course–about corporations, sponsorships, the Grammys, the infamous Taylor Swift incident and not fooling with Justin Timberlake and Jay-Z‘s “Suit and Tie.” Guarantee Jay blew Ye’s phone up when he got word that his little brother was being an emo artist on stage, once again.
