A-list New York rapper-turned-mogul Jay-Z (JAŸ-Z) has added stadium concerts in Los Angeles and Paris to his limited run of performances marking 30 years since the release of his acclaimed debut LP, Reasonable Doubt, and 25 years since The Blueprint, the 2001 album widely considered to be his magnum opus.
Following his recent one-off with The Roots at Philadelphia, PA’s Roots Picnic and his upcoming sold-out run at New York’s Yankee Stadium in July, H.O.V. will head to the City of Light’s Stade de France on September 10th and the City of Angels’ SoFi Stadium on October 23rd to continue his 2026 celebration of “culture, legacy, and hits.”
Public performances by Jay-Z, real name Shawn Carter, have been sporadic in recent years. He has not mounted a full solo tour since his 2017 outing in support of his last solo LP, 4:44, though he did appear on several stops on his wife Beyoncé‘s Cowboy Carter tour last year. The couple also released their Grammy-winning collaborative album, Everything Is Love, in 2018 as The Carters.
