I don't believe that he doesn't look at social media like that. You know Hov has a burner.
Even if you're not the biggest fan, you can't deny his influence or artistry.
The fact that it wasn't just another musician but a former president who welcomed him in proves that there are levels to this.
Hov’s induction speech also featured a number of familiar faces reciting his rhymes, including Beyonce, Blue Ivy, Rihanna, LeBron James, Pharrell, Diddy, Chris Rock, Samuel L. Jackson, Halle Berry, David Letterman, Rick Ross, Questlove, Regina King, Lin-Manuel Miranda, John Legend, Common, H.E.R., Jamie Foxx, DJ Khaled, Lena Waithe, Aziz Ansari, Trevor Noah, Usher, Ed Sheeran, Tyler Perry and Chris Martin.
Early Sunday morning, Jay-Z made a rare appearance on Twitter to shout out someone who he forgot while on stage — his mentor, Jaz-O. “In my excitement, I failed to prize, and acknowledge, JAZ-O, he was the hometown hero that made the dream tangible. Thank you good man… ok let me lose this password for another year or so. Thank you all again, incredibly humbled by your love."
