OlderJay-Z Covers 'Rolling Stone'
Jay-Z keeps his stunna shades on as he poses for the cover of Rolling Stone‘s new issue.
Here’s what the 40-year-old rapper had to share:
On his most frustrating meeting as the president of Def Jam: “Honestly? All of them.”
On his interest in indie rock, especially Grizzly Bear: “I love the energy coming out indie rock right now. It has this rebellion thing that hip-hop is missing now, the thing that made hip-hop hip-hop.”

I don’t know what America, Rolling Stone is referring to but he’s king of nothing far as I’m concerned! Kind of a bold statement to make about a guy who can’t carry a tune and makes a living off of making words rhyme.
His sooo ugly..like hard to look at ugly…. thank god he’s talented!
he has huge lips! instead of the mag doing something about it, they totally like super-emphasized it with this cover pic! lol!
sounds good..
Jay Z is so nasty looking. He makes me want to vomit. Beyonce is a money grabbing golddigger. What woman would want that ugly creature. Beyonce is with him so she does not have to spend her money. I don’t know how people pay to see this thing of a man in concert. Tupac was HOT. Jay Z would have to pay me to go see his ugly face at his concert.
@um: I feel what you are saying that Jay Z is not a King of nothing. Jay Z was a nobody when the greats like Biggie and Tupac were alive. Jay Z is the King of the Ugly people because he is so disgusting to look at.
@Tara:
You are so ridiculously sexist.
How do you know JAY Z isn’t with Beyonce for HER money?
Beyonce earns just as much if not MORE than Jay Z.
Whats wrong with his mouth?
He looks like a camel.
IT’S SO WEIRD.
No, he may not be the most attractive man but he is a wise businessman who went from writing lyrics on brown paper bags while he was a street hustler to becoming a mogul with a net worth of over $150 million. So this is a lesson to all people: you may not be the most attractive, etc but you can be smart and make something of your life despite. Clearly he did not let any of those things get in his way and he turned an unlikely story into a success. He has a level of wealth that frankly the most attractive people walking around today will NEVER achieve. And he has artistic credibility from his genre of music too. So instead of looking at the face, why not look at his life and what he made of it and ask, how can I do that? If he was as hateful as most people who only judge him based on his looked, he would never have become a guy with a $150 million net worth. Learn something from him.
He’s not the easiest guy to look at but he is a great businessman. I agree with commenter number 9.
@happy girl: I agree. He’s maybe ugly but at least he made something out of his poor life. Ha. I’d love to do so too. Even though I don’t live in some ghetto. Lol. He’s pretty lucky. It’s depressing. XD
Ok he isen’t good to look at but at least he’s made a sucess out of life.
love it love it love it! ALWAYS The best hova!
Why is this man so white?
@Tara:
Beyonce is with him so she does not have to spend her money.
<—– so true!!!! She’s A GOLD DIGGER!
@Tara: Clearly content of character and his success thus far mean nothing to you…have you ever heard him speak? Talk about what he’s gone through and how far he’s come from his past?
That entire post is grossly superficial and based on faulty speculation.
Your words speak to your character.
OMG Beyonce, how can you look at this every day!!!
he has thick lips which does wonders for Beyonce’s *****.. can you imagine Jay Z swallow and lick Bee’s ***** with those thick lips
Woah!!! King of America I don’t think so since that’s an oxymoron. America is a Republic, no royalty here. King of hip hop? maybe.
He’s a success but there are many like him in the game that have the same backgound.
KIng of the DL’ers lol!!!!!!
yes he’s not attractive..but when I think about all the millions he has..and that I will never have..kinda shut u down.
If a female rapper was that non attractive..she would never have been successfull
Only men can get away with their looks..female always have to be ” pretty”..and skinny etc..no matter if u rap or if u sing or act!
Pfff damn macho world
i like his music
Made millions peddling hate and filth in a form absolutely mocking art as beauty. Presenting Black Culture as a latent threat to anything good and everything white. White people joining hip-hop do do at their peril.
Damnn, he have biiig lips ;)
Those lips put Mick Jagger’s to shame. Having said that, he looks ok. People are talking like he’s ugly. Not everything is about having the perfect features, besides who defines perfect? I’ve never listened to any of his music, but he must be talented to be so successful. As you say, he’s not getting a pass on talent because of looks like…….. hmmmmm, I’ll leave it to you to fill in the blanks.
