Jay-Z<\/a> closed out his Jay-Z 30 tour this weekend at Los Angeles\u2019 SoFi Stadium, bringing an end to a headlining run that broke Yankee Stadium<\/a>\u2019s ticket sales record and featured guest appearances from Nas, The-Dream, Rihanna, and Beyonc\u00e9. The tour celebrated the 30th anniversary of Jay\u2019s debut album Reasonable Doubt, and kicked off earlier this year with a headlining show<\/a> at Philadelphia\u2019s Roots Picnic.<\/p>\n

On Friday, October 23, he invited Scarface to the stage to rap \u201cThis Can\u2019t Be Life\u201d and \u201cMind Playing Tricks on Me.\u201d Following with prior tour stops, Jay\u2019s daughter, Blue Ivy Carter, accompanied him on piano during \u201cThe Story of O.J.\u201d and \u201cDead Presidents \/ Dead Presidents II.\u201d After ending his main set with \u201cPublic Service Announcement,\u201d he returned to the stage for an encore with two more guests: John Legend and DJ Khaled, who joined him in a performance of their eight-plus-minute song \u201cGod Did.”<\/p>\n

The second and final night of the tour saw Jay-Z joined by Too $hort for a medley of his well-known \u201cBlow the Whistle Freestyle\u201d and the original 2006 \u201cBlow the Whistle.\u201d But the marquee guest spot of the evening featured Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg, both of whom came out to perform a medley of hits including \u201cThe Next Episode,\u201d \u201cStill Dre,\u201d \u201cNuthin But a G Thang,\u201d and of course, \u201cCalifornia Love.\u201d Jay also took the opportunity to honor late Los Angeles rapper Nipsey Hussle, who was killed in a 2019 shooting<\/a>. He projected a black-and-white photo of the artist while playing his song \u201cHussle & Motivate,\u201c then incorporated the rapper\u2019s \u201cLast Time That I Checc’d\u201d into a performance of \u201cOn to the Next One.\u201d<\/p>\n

During the tour closer, Jay-Z also took a moment to address criticism of the tour, specifically around alleged low-priced resale tickets, circulating online. \u201dY\u2019all gotta be very aware of what\u2019s going on in the world, right? People will tell you that nobody was in here tonight, but you got eyes, you can see. People will tell you that the music wasn\u2019t great, but you got ears,\u201d he said. \u201cYou gotta understand, you gotta question everything in this world of AI.\u201d<\/p>\n
