Jay-Z & his Jet: So Fly...

If you haven't heard, today is the day that Jay-Z embarks on a one of a kind mini-tour to promote his latest album, Kingdom Come (due Nov. 21st). The ambitious plan has Jay-Z jetting to 7 cities in 17 hours to perform for radio contest winners in airport hangars. HOVA will touch down in Atlanta, Philly, DC, NYC, Chicago, LA and Vegas. His retirement lasted about as long as Jordan's...but it is nice to see such a talented lyricist return to the game and continue to take hip hop to new heights. MTV is planning to air highlights from the tour on Sun. Nov 19th at 4:00 pm EST. In addition, Jay-Z's recent tour had him participating in the Water For Life campaign in conjunction with the UN and MTV with the mission to raise awareness on the world's water crisis. His trip was documented by MTV News and the program, Diary of JAY-Z: Water for Life will air on Friday, November 24th on MTV.

Here is a little behind the scenes clip of his Radio City Music Hall peformance that commemorated the 10 year anniversary of Reasonable Doubt, his 1996 debut album.
