Jay-Z - Glastonbury 2008

[MrJfam1]

type in syllables response the kid is killing it

[mrpaulpickles]

peace and luv, from ringo to hip ho, well i mean hip hop, but you get the idea, music never dies, enjoy it all, from a white boy that rocks notting hill with his kids, luv it

[MrCeej9999]

Jay-Z breaking 99 problems into Back in Black will go down as one of the great Glastonbury moments, trust me.

Guitar music is pop now. It's the "in thing". It's not alternative. It's just mainstream. People who were listening to backstreet boys 10 years ago, now bop away to guitar bands.

This is as punk, and rock and roll as music gets at the minute

[superalmalik]

it has nothing to do with race its not like rap is interlocked in the black gene or sumit u i mean eminem is white

and jimmy hendrix is black

if you hate rap thats ur opinion but dont dis black ppl cause of it u racist fucks.and he came and he saw and he conquered that festival and no sceptics can take that from him

[misswarpants]

I think the most racist people now adays are black people not white people. All blacks do are throw down the race card... if you insult one for being dumb your a racist, if you dont like obama your a racist. All of you blacks think your owed something, well your not, I hate all you racist fucks out there who bring up race in everything. Who gives a fuck if Jay Z is black. He is still a crap singer and thouroghly butcherd wonderwall. ANd rap doesnt belong at glastonbury, its a rock festival.

[TheEnigma7111]

who the fuck listens to this shit??MONKEYS?

[triggle]

your mother!

[lonsted]

@Mrsradioheart

I can tell by your spelling and grammactical errors, ur an illiterate, ignorant bitch, so I aint gnna bother respond to ur pointless comment or try and educate you.

It would be like talking to a brick wall. Pointless.

[Noctoural88]

I'm sorry I just laughed my ass off at this picture

[moneyblackrob]

hey parasitic nwo......it is not smart to speak on what u dont know even if you do know or think you know.

[ParasiticNWOElite]

The only reason Jay-Z got top bill was cuz he's a bounty bar freemason

[savie4]

jays a beast and hell always be da best

[MrRockerperson]

jay z is a fag and will always be a fag

[extinkt]

What a narrow minded fuck.

[memoarc]

as historic, which is not finished the tickets, as in previous years ........... jajajaja

[harryunderscore8]

it didnt sell out at first because they increased the amount of tickets, it sold the same amount as last year on the first day there were just more so it didnt sell out as quick

[wotever1000]

fuck all ur mothers

[Ry73737]

Rap and rock are two completely different things, its like comparing food with water.

[IndieCindy172]

you need both to live.

[lonsted]

No my friend rap is african poetry. African folk music is blues, you kno, where rock and roll came from. (that includes brit rock and the rest of the feeble waterd down rock ulot make) Kno your history. 100 years of being on our nuts and you still aint learnt nothing. pitaful

[sandinista138]

Watered down huh???..Your definately not from the states...ya know what's watered down..Jay brah...he's crap,,No moustache with wiskers like a rat..only middle school kids listen to that commercial wanna be ass gansta..oh thanks for the Afrikan history lesson..don't forget Blondie was the first to crush it on wax..

[mrsradioheart]

Blues =/= Rap, Jay Z is not a fucking rock artist just because you credit black people with inviting rock and roll which is the most biased pile of shit argument I've ever seen. Rap does not belong in Glastonbury, keep your shitty music in the shit hole you call mother Africa where it belongs.

[blazinbois]

You may not like hip hop but don't bring race into it. Blacks created hip hop, one of the greatest and most powerfull forms of music that inspires millions of people around the world and we should be thakful a hell of alot to them for that! He had every rite to perform there, the world and music is changing, accept it.

[mrsradioheart]

I'm not thankful for rap simply because I don't like it, why should I praise anybody for creating something I don't like? Black people didn't create rap music, but some artist who happened to be black created it.

I'm not going to walk up to every black person I see and say thank you to them because they have influence in a genre of music. Rock music will always remain on top, it's almost depressing Jay Z performed at an even for rock artist.

[misswarpants]

rap and hip hop arnt inspiring though... well they do inspire... they inspire crime drugs and other bad shit

[superalmalik]

i can tell your ignorant as fuck from just reading that !

[blazinbois]

firstly jay z was taking the piss out of noel coz he of what he said. he admitted he cant sing and even had the balls to say oasis were great and that you had 2 accept all kinds of music.

[misswarpants]

I'll start taking you seriously when you use proper grammer.

[blazinbois]

@misswarpants it's called a computer, u dont have 2 rite every word out in full.

[jacamnat]

@misswarpants oh the fucking grammar police are out again. why don't you just get the fuck off the internet and read a book.

[blazinbois]

secondly...... .' jay z - about his mum - Thanks for the days you kept me breathing when my asthma was bad

And my chest was weezin', thanks for the look of love

Just as I was leavin'

On nights you thought that I wouldn't come back

That left you grieving'

Thanks for holdin' down the household when times was bad

As the man, I apologize for my dad' sounds quite positive dont it?

[blazinbois]

lastly - tupac '-'It's time for us as a people to start makin' some changes.

Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live

and let's change the way we treat each other. You see the old way wasnt working so its on us to do what we gota do to survive' again quite positve. only people with no brain take the stuf about shooting people seriuosly and go and kill someone. most just ebjoy the flow of the rapper or the beats. so get ur facts rite.

[teflonized]

scottmbolt,you are a fucking brainless racist idiot!!!!!!!!!!

[mazumathefirst]

Rock too is black music you fool, go back to school.

[pirolas03]

you fucking dick head lick my black balls you piece of trash go lick your dads cracker fucking biatchhhhhhhh

[funkymonkey800]

your a fucking cunt dude

just coz your a twat dont mean you have to bring other ppls talent down to. hes good and he made it wat have you done join a fucking racist gang u cunt go die in some hole the world would be a better place with out racism and you

[blueblackdead]

i think its more funny how many of you people actually write they way you talk, epic fail! has to be said though his set looked fucking awesome, but i still wont spend money seeing him! as for the guy who said no jumping up and down im just curious is because your scared you wouldnt survive if machine head played or are you just worried your tits will bounce!

[bgiimz]

jayz is practically one of the richest guys on earth n is only gonna get richer so oasis can sell as many cds as they want theyll never catch him

n hes ill

[Mofofofofo92]

yeh but acdc are much richer then jay z

[bgiimz]

they cant be rlly?

[buzzbuzzoz]

Yeah they probably aren't, you're right. As popular as they are they don't have drinks and labels and clothing lines and all the stuff Jay has. He is the pre-eminent rapper/businessman. One of the smartest businessman on the planet. And good on him, too.

[afrogroov]

poeple buy into hype so much, what doea being rich mean to you...

yeah jay z is succesful and rich...

there is a difference between rich and wealthy...you aint gon hear or even know about the wealthiest dude on EARTH unless you get an education via other mean than glossy magazine, youtube and myspace....

[IRepSon]

Lol at forestforevr "failed musician"...

Son, the man's a multi-milionaire, and he's that because of his music, so tell me how the fuck that's failure? Yea exactly faggot. Go suck a dick.

The crowd clearly didn't think he was a failed musician since he basically took over the whole fesival.

[DONMAGIK]

lol right up stupid ass Noel. Thanks for making Jay set the most memorable of glasto 2008. Who Is laughing now fool!!!

[sandinista138]

Yeah...the best part was when all of the glasto audience sang along to wonderwall word for word in awesome harmony...hahahaha Jay really showed Oasis...

[misswarpants]

howd he show oasis?

[xRyanN1x]

i can sum up the whole festival in less than 3 words. Jay-Z.

I can sum up his performance in one - Mesmerising.

I can sum up him in 3 words - THE WORLDS GREATEST.

end of fucking convo.

[badboypalekar]

all u waste katz dat hate on Jay-Z should be ashamed , the guys accomplished too much and got somewhere in life , wer the fuk are you lots at

ur too sik Mr Carter

[oblivion1777]

if yo ask me u niggaz need hip hop at Glastonbury blood. ask me how gonna move to oasis music what jumping up and down noooooo. it's good it happened so u can get music with rhythm not with two left feet.

Hip-pop, grime gonna take over uk charts this decade. ouch!!

[ummmyewhatever]

glastonbury isnt about hip hop,r n b,grime its about indie, rock pop n all the ovas

jay z is an incredible rapper but he shud leave glastonbury 2 bands lyk oasis . kaiser chiefs n that

[hibeeinexile]

Have you ever even been to glastonbury? Do you know anything about it's roots?

It's a celebration of all art forms, it's always been forward thinking.

If all you want is indie bollocks fucking stay at reading/leeds with the NME

[handsomedevil98]

U kw that is a good point! even though why not get a real rapper in glasto to rep Hip-Hip

Jay-Z to me is only good at bussiness, NaS now thats a rapper!

[hibeeinexile]

me and nas have problems; had tickets to see him twice and both times he failed to show!

Plus he's not got the hits for a festival crowd in the same way as jigga.

[buzzbuzzoz]

Yeah that's kinda true. As great as a rapper NaS is he's not exactly mainstream. Having said that... I'd have a hard time picking between Jigga and NaS.

[sandinista138]

Fuck Jay...there's no comparison...Nas is da real deal...Jay's a sap who wanted to be on everyones single,,bigie, nas, Rae..

[twellsskater]

rofl, he sucks my balls

[forestforevr]

fuck off back to america u failed musician

[fireking345]

fucking dumb shit

dont jock jay Z cause hes richer got a better girl and more important than u

you dirty nut sack

[bgiimz]

ya fuck off stupid UK piece of shit

[tezmt]

why jay z?

[islagrande01]

because JAY Z is very good , simple

[BespinBob]

thank you, finaly someone that realises Glaso is a diverse festival, CONTEMPORARY PERFORMING ARTS!!!!!

Corect me if Im wrong but Jay-Z is one of the biggest in the world?....

Dont like it, go eat a burger & goto the cider bus.

[cherylscottibiza]

what you all on about it was amasing to see the pyramid stage with (what was quoted to be over 120,000 people) thats the biggest turn out at glastonbury for any artist on any stage any way glastonbury is not a rock festival its a festival of contemporay peforming arts 2009 roll on

[DAZZLERILLUSIO]

domhullah-- festivals are by their very definition - BEYOND definition. Why is so hard so hard for you to understand? Oh that's right, because you're l-i-m-i-t-e-d.

My bad!

[domhullah]

errrrr believe me mate i understand that. my point was that glastonbury cannot be simply called 'a rock festival'. but thanks for the limited comment, seems like you kinda jumped the gun a bit tho huh

[qiieroounheladoo]

he is a genius!

[jessedeford]

pretend guitar is AWESOME! That's exactly why rap gets no respect. Totally blows. End of story.

[IRepSon]

LOL@ "It was better than the origional"

lmao that was funny. I'd say that just to piss these rock queer's of.

hi5!

[AdorablyUglyox]

i was there babe, it was pretty amazingly immense. he was loved by 180,000 people at least.

xo

[geniusgza7]

all i can say is thank God i was at Oxegen instead, where there was no debate over hiphop acts as the only hiphop acts were actually good. they had Rage against the Machine, Prodigy and Tricky, not some half ass rapper!

[lakeyboy78]

Was Oxegen doing some kind of 1997 tribute night?

[geniusgza7]

no i never heard anything about that, there was tribute bands but no 97' tribut night

[HDmusicvidsHD]

lol,and i never say lol

[IRepSon]

The fuck you talking about "awful act". This shit was more on the lines of "amazing". Seriously. The fan's weren't singing his lyrics? You sure about that son? Go check "Hard Knock Life" out, then get at me. I'm a big hip hop and Jay Z fan, and watchin' the British public sing so loud and fluently along to his word's made me proud. If you're into rock shit, who give's a fuck? In my opinion rock is BULLSHIT. But hey that's just me, get over it..if you can't then UMAD?

[strettyford]

The reason why everybody is going on about this "rock shit" is because Glastonbury id a fucking rock festival, not some rapper who wants to sing half of wonderwall while pretending to play the guitar

[domhullah]

glastonbury's not a rock festival you pleb

[BespinBob]

lol well said ^^

[greenyjboy422]

@domhullah glastonbury is a rock festival haahhahaa

[Jim12345678]

you have the right fucking idea!

[Paadzer]

I don't get what all the fuss is about, awful performance but there is plently of other acts to see at Glastonbury if you don't like this type of music

[emanuelpablo]

For all music fans out there that stick to one genre of music. Youre all dickheads. In this time when good musicians are rare, who are you to criticise? There is a lot of shit rappers that make a killing and even more shit rock bands that make a killing. 95% of the bullshit that is played on radio and music television nowadays isnt music. theres a new 'faggoty' indie band coming out every month and 'posey wannabe rappers aswell. Lets give respect where its due. Stop the fucking genre wars...

[lakeyboy78]

Great post. Also, Jay Z's Glasto set crossed so many genres with the sampling he used. In that respect it reminded me of "Paul's Boutique" which is about as big a compliment you can get, really.

[geniusgza7]

paul botique was amazing!!!

[NMcCann]

very true

[tillusmaximus]

@emanuelpablo so true....

[leoneljt]

mock the undergroundd, sigging is the fishing of the mach..

Is black is shet black and write!

BEAUTIFUL in arshentain, USA is FUCKIB OFF!

SAY NO MORE "Charly" !!

[jj9749]

the video doesnt work

[OaktownZero]

To the guy below me. I hope you die at a Jay-Z concert. = )

[blockah123]

i have 2 go to a jay z concert b4 i die

[TalkofLA]

well hip hop wins once again.

rock you loose

[ntfc2008]

im glad i went to see jay-z at this years glasto it was a true glasto moment. but how ever he just did my fucking head in after 30 mins and how can you say hip hop has on when more ppl sang to wonderwall than any of his songs? think about. when he was trying to mock wonderwall u could barly here the music all you could here was ppl singing to there hearts content. ROCK WINS AGAIN

[iGotSpaceLikeNASA]

i like both hip hop and rock, but ppl at glastonbury are not likely to sing to Jay z are they? its the whitest festival ever, AND its in the UK. It just depends where you go. If you were in Jay Z's enviroment everyone would be singing to his stuff and they probably would like Oasis

[germy666]

where´s blues? where´s jazz? these guys had a big problem in NY during the 70´s. God bless Rock & Roll!!!

[Kiakovvy]

I WAS THERE !

Woop He was soo Good!

x

[docafizza]

Here's an eBay auction for the Crooks&Castles X Mosley Tribes Castellano Sunglasses Jay-Z was wearing for the performance!

search for this number in eBay:

ebay item number 330253612401

[b4yybe]

it uhh didnt work?

[minimorge]

me neither

[IRepSon]

This don't play for me

[BespinBob]

Fair comment.

[BIRKENHEADER]

I think it was a collaboration between the 2 artists, they have both definitely benefited in record sales ... artists have done it for years, more famously .. The Beatles and The Rolling Stones

[leeanthony10]

Oasis have always been mouthy fuckers, once a bigger boy comes along (dont dispute that globally Jay Z is bigger than Oasis). They dont like it.

Jay-Z proved himself, performance speaks volumes.

[OaktownZero]

Wait, was Jay-Z taking the piss on Wonderwall supposed to be a one up? The man needs to know how to write a song like that before attempting to mock it. It was completely pathetic and embarrassing for me to watch. I kind of feel sorry for him. Next?

[Cameronesi1990]

Why do people like you feel the need to continually 'get one over' Hip-hop fans on youtube. Fair enough you if feel that Hip-hop music has poor lyrics (which is true only of Commercialized hip-hop) and does'nt qualify as music full stop as it lacks the use of musical instruments. But do you have to impose your opinion on us every fucking minute. Grow up. Hip-Hip IS contemporary music hence why it happenened to appear at a Contemporary music festival...

[DUSTEEBOY]

You gotta be a bad mother fucka to draw criticism from a rock band when you're a rapper.Rapper or not jay just rocked that show!!

[Jim12345678]

i feel sorry for that gallagher twat, he was saying it was wrong n all, and although ticket sales were slow, Jaz got a fucking awesome reception, and performed an amazing show, his version of wonderwall was better than the original

[TheWhoLegends]

was it fuck.

[NMcCann]

better than the original? ur a fucking retard.

[Jim12345678]

you getting fresh?

[martymclaren]

@NMcCann true

[martymclaren]

@Jim12345678 you dont no what music is,so shout yer fucking mouth toss bag!!!

[TheIllusiveKiD]

@Jim12345678 I agree actually, but not so much better than the original, just, well thought out? headlining with the only song Oasis is famous for is a fantastic idea, and Jay-Z performing it makes it that much better.

[ummmyewhatever]

lol i dnt think he was takin the piss, even he must know not 2 b that stupid, i think he was just showin his recognition 2 oasis, kinda lyka tribute.

[TommHaythorne]

He conquered Glastonbury, end of. performance was electric.

[sneakashields]

get a grip whoever is dissin...

he's the icon of hip-hop and you can say he doesn't fit the image of glast but the fact is that he took the time to go and pay his respects to his fans!

whether you like him or not you can't admit that for once a real legend headlined glastonbury!

[BespinBob]

Heck of a performance, dont see the fookin problem. Die hard Oasis fans (& Noel) are mouthy fuckers, big deal. Shame the mouth got owned on the intro.

Unlucky. Jay-Z 1 - Oasis - Nil

[kpfc2k7]

right on bigbaby071 he rules woo!

[Bigbaby071]

Jay-Z sings "Today is gonna be the day that I stick my middle finger back to you. By now you should have realised that Jigga is not a fool. I dont believe that anybody sings the way I do, but I gotchu now. And all around the crowd is singing and smiling."

Jay Z rules... haha

[NMcCann]

haha.. ur such a loser

please respect jay-z and oasis

[lukecole]

i was there and i was at the front, it has oto be said, jay-z rocked it

[timbelahd]

Can't watch it. Whats up with that?

[cantbanthebohman]

Why were you tryin to watch him so u idiot

[TheRealCritique]

This post is about as interesting as JayZ - utter horsesh*t.

[maximuslo]

Jay-Z may be a old rich rapper, but it also show you how disrespectful rappers are. He traveled to their country to make a point? Looser!

[ChineseDickFingers]

if he was a disrespectful rapper he would have turned down the invite to glaston08. homeboy from oasis didn't need to say all that shit. no rap at glaston? wtf? go swallow on naomi campbells big black dick oasis!

[binhemed]

hey wats up

[600sbandit]

WEAK!!!

[kyleswat11]

wtf theres nothing on this...
