Jay-Z<\/a> and Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin<\/a> may have 99 problems … but a rocking week of events in New York City ain’t one!<\/p>\n

The close pals and kings of NYC are taking over the city with a series of top-tier, celeb-packed extravaganzas … beginning with Jay-Z’s Yankee Stadium concerts this weekend.<\/p>\n

Jay-Z starts the 30th anniversary show with Beyonc\u00e9 cutting his hair <\/p>\n

The rapper sold out three shows in the Bronx ballpark this weekend … with celebs like Fat Joe<\/a>, LeBron James<\/a>, Megan Thee Stallion<\/a>, Kevin Hart<\/a>, Ice Spice<\/a>, the Knicks’ NBA Finals Hero OG Anunoby<\/a>, Jadakiss<\/a> and DJ Khaled<\/a> pulling up for Friday night’s show — ya know, the one that iconically opened with Beyonc\u00e9<\/a> cuttin’ Jay-Z’s hair<\/a>!<\/p>\n

We’ve learned Patriots owner Robert Kraft<\/a>, former Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley<\/a> and Rubin himself are pulling up to the yard tonight … ready to watch Jay-Z smack another performance out of the park.<\/p>\n

Later on this week, NYC plays host to the ESPYs — produced by Fanatics Studios — on Wednesday … followed by Fanatics Fest<\/a>, a four-day convention at Jacob Javits Center.<\/p>\n

The festival runs from Thursday to Sunday and features some of the biggest stars in sports and pop culture.<\/p>\n

Shaquille O’Neal<\/a>, Derek Jeter<\/a>, John Cena<\/a>, Travis Scott<\/a>, Serena Williams<\/a>, Floyd Mayweather<\/a>, IShowSpeed<\/a>, LeBron, Tom Brady<\/a> and dozens more stars are scheduled to appear at next weekend’s event.<\/p>\n

So are some of soccer’s biggest stars … with pre-World Cup Final interviews scheduled to take place at the event on Friday — while a watch party for the final that Sunday is also taking place.<\/p>\n

Jay-Z will be hosting a bash for all the celebs at his VIP 40\/40 club inside the venue … entry is for celebs only — though normies are welcome to hang outside the pop-up and possibly see some of the bold-faced names.<\/p>\n

It’s a hard knock life … but Jay-Z and Michael Rubin are trying to make it better, one big party at a time!<\/p>\n
