Jay-Z, finally
Saturday, June 28, 2008  Send to a friend
You've got to hand it to Jay-Z. After weeks of moaning from indie-fans and Glastonbury 'purists' (including Noel Gallagher) that the festival doesn't "do" hip hop, this year's headliner turned up on stage (very late) and stuck it to the Oasis star with a parody of Wonderwall... before erupting into his brilliant set with 99 Problems. He told his audience, (quite possibly the whitest he has ever performed in front of): "For those who didn't get the memo, my name is Jay-Z, and I'm pretty f***ing awesome!" Damian Hurst's diamond-studded skull glittered on a screen behind him...
Update: The critics are pretty much united over Jay-Z's set. He has officially been designated A Triumph. Case closed.
