What's my motherf*ckin' name?

Jigga!

Tonight's Jay-Z/Mary J. Blige show was, in short, OFF THE HOOK. And this is coming from neither a hardcore fan of Jay-Z nor Mary. Jay-Z could've easily gone on to perform another hour and Mary sang with so much more emotion than what you get out of her recorded works.

It was also a very Barack-ing night. Spotted a few Barack t-shirt clad folks in the audience and there was even a guy standing with the regular bootlegged concert t-shirt sellers in the parking lot selling, you guessed it, bootlegged Barack shirts (I wonder if the guy was going to give any of the profits to the campaign... probably not). At one point during the show, with a large picture of George Bush projected behind him, Jay-Z started calling out, "Are you ready for change? Are you ready for change, Yay Area??" The picture switched to one of Barack and the crowd went up in an uproar with Jay saying, "This tour isn't sponsored by Barack Obama but it's supported by a free man who's ready for change." The crowd went nuts.

Excellent show... HOVA!
