"I'm just getting better with time, I'm like Opus One"

I know I posted his interview with Bill Maher, so i won't post more interviews. But i will tell you that you should check them out. His interview on Letterman was hilarious. He answers questions with very little words but his face says it all.

On September 11, he performed to a sold out crowd at Madison Square Garden in New York for his "Answer the Call" concert. All of the proceeds from this concert will be donated to the New York Police and Fire Widows' and Children's Benefit Fund. What a great way for Jay Z to help contribute to those effected by what happened on September 11th while paying tribute to the police and fire fighters who died.

On top of that, it was a banger of a concert. A two hour set with over 3o songs performed from his 11 albums with many guest appearances. Joining him on stage for songs were Alicia Keys, Mary J. Blige, John Mayer, and Kanye West among others. At the end of the concert, while playing Young Forever, a song off his BluePrint 3 album, the screens displayed faces of the men, women, and children who lost their lives on September 11th. He then told the crowd to "make some noise for everybody that lost their lives so we could live ours" and you couldn't help but to get emotional.

If you haven't seen it, here is a link:
