Music mogul

Pearl at the Palms Casino resort on Saturday, December 29, 2007 at 8:00 p.m.
Born Shawn Carter, Jay-Z has solidified himself as an entrepreneur, performer, trendsetter, spokesman and philanthropist. Throughout his career, Jay-Z has opened doors for anyone with talent and determination, all while setting the pace in the world of music and fashion. With the formation of his own record company, Roc-A-Fella Records, and the subsequent release of his 1996 album Reasonable Doubt, Jay-Z has cemented his reputation as one of the most formidable icons in entertainment.
In the past seven years Jay-Z has released eight consecutive multi-platinum albums. Since 1996, Jay-Z has earned multiple Grammy, American Music, MTV Music Video, Soul Train and Billboard Awards. He is the first hip-hop artist to release an MTV unplugged album, to appear on 60 Minutes or to have a live Showtime televised concert. Jay-Z adds the Vegas stop to the already successful tour in support of his latest album American Gangster (2007).
