Today marks the 44th birthday of Jay Z!

Born Shawn Carter, Jay Z has proven himself to be a legendary piece in the rap game.

Between establishing a sports agency titled Roc Nation Sports, sold out shows worldwide and a doting dad to Blue Ivy, Jay Z isn’t stopping just yet.

The Brooklyn rapper has curated the clothing brand Rocawear, helped moved the NBA team, Brooklyn Nets to his hometown and partnered with Barneys in a controversial collaboration. In addition, he’s published a memoir, Decoded as well as opened the 40/40 club throughout the nation. Jay Z is definitely surpassing boundaries that is unimaginable.

Jay Z rapped on Jeezy’s Go Crazy (Remix) “You ain’t did nothin I ain’t did, n—a pay homage.” Indeed.  And while paying homage, wish Jay Z a happy birthday!
