 Jay-Z signs $150 million Live Nation deal
It has been reported that Jay-Z has agreed a $150 million deal with concert promoter Live Nation.

The ten-year deal means that we should see him tour, release records and launch his own talent and management company Roc Nation. Jay-Z said: “I’ve turned into the Rolling Stones of hip-hop. In a way I want to operate like an indie band. Play the music on tour instead of relying on radio. Hopefully we’ll get some hits out of there and radio will pick it up, but we won’t make it with that in mind.”

Do you think that this was a good move for him?
