Jay-Z's forray into the sports world by becoming a minority stakes owner of the "Brooklyn Nets" NBA Basketball-team was an inevitable topic to anyone who pays somewhat attention to the music and/or the sports world. While only owning a tiny percentage of the team, Mr. Carter clearly had great personal interest in making this project a success story. By bringing the arena and the team to the borrough he grew up in, Jay tried to give back to the community and in my opinion did a pretty fantastic job!
This short documentary provides some insight in the process of setting up the deal as well as some nice highlights into the rehearsal procedures before his legendary 8 back-to-back live shows to welcome the Barclay's Center to Brooklyn.
The video also contains some pictures of his symbolic train-ride on the namegiving J/Z subway line to his last show. Everyone should take the time and check out this clip that is inspirational and entertaining.
