A Weekend of Hip-Hop History
Mark your calendars for July 10th and 11th!

This announcement follows the recent release of the original ‘Dead Presidents’ song, which debuted before ‘Reasonable Doubt.’ Fans have been buzzing with anticipation, speculating about new music and shows. Roc Nation has even launched a dedicated website, JAYZ30.com, to keep everyone updated on Hov’s anticipated moves.
