Jay-Z: Tour with Kelly Clarkson Was “Oddest”

May 1, 2009 by Jeanne  

Rapper, Jay-Z, had some things to say about the tour that he shared with American Idol winner, Kelly Clarkson.  "I had a ball!" Jay-Z wrote on the RapRadar blog about the concert that took place on Wednesday at the University of Arizona.

Inauguration Concert

"On the show as well were Third Eye Blind and Kelly Clarkson — I thought that to be the oddest pairing EVER but, soon realized, it’s what I’ve always professed. There is NO such thing as BLACK music or WHITE music, only GOOD or BAD music.  It’s stupid cool to like things that are not like you, and that goes for outside of music," he wrote "If you’re an African American, you can have a Jewish friend.  I think concerts like this should happen more often — outside of the one or two festivals a year or ‘Zootopia.’ I’m putting that into the universe. Next up, Taylor Swift and Uncle Murda!"

Well, I’m glad he said that.  I have always felt that way and I’m so surprised when I encounter a person who only listens to music from one genre or ethnic group.  Music is music, it doesn’t need to have labels on it to be good.  I wish I had seen that show.  I bet it was great!
