JAY-Z took over New York City on Friday night for the first of his Yankee Stadium performances, kicking off a weekend celebration marking the 30th anniversary of Reasonable Doubt. The opening show lived up to the hype with a lineup of unforgettable guest appearances.
Alicia Keys, Jaz-O, Blue Ivy, Nas, and Beyoncé all joined the celebration throughout the night. Before the concert got underway, fans were shown a video on the stadium’s big screen of Beyoncé giving Hov a fresh haircut. The clip quickly sparked major reactions in the crowd and fueled online speculation that a new album could be on the way.
JAY-Z has a history of changing his hairstyle ahead of major releases, so the moment immediately caught fans’ attention. With the recent performances reigniting excitement around the rap icon, many believe the timing could be leading up to a new project. For now, though, fans will have to wait and see whether an official album announcement follows.
