Jay-Z Not Being Played On the Radio?
photo courtesy of PR Photos/www.prphotos.comJay-Z is reportedly struggling with promotion of his latest album. The rapper is said to be having difficulties in getting support for his new album, “American Gangster.” According to a source for NYP Page Six:
“He is scrambling - the first single, Blue Magic, isn’t being played on radio. It’s the first time in his career he’s not doing well.”
To promote the album, Jay-Z will performlive on VH1’s “Storytell ers” on Thursday. The source also revealed that he will tour to “create buzz,” and Def Jam shelled out $500,000 for the first video.
However, a spokesman for the retired rapper insists reports are unfounded. The rep says,
“It’s not true at all. It’s a conceptual album, so we’re not focusing on one single.”
I wonder if Jay-Z is wishing he stayed retired now. It’s not like he needs the money and it could be very embarrassing if he doesn’t do well.

Is it just me, or does he remind anyone else of Dumb Donald from Fat Albert?

The person above read my mind, right down to the “is it just me”. I was going to say “is it just me or does this guy look like Fat Albert’s skinny cousin?
LMAO! Love it!
that is what happens when you do it for the money and not because you love it!
