Jay-Z at New York City's Madison Square Garden on September 11th


Jay-Z will be performing a benefit concert at New York City's Madison Square Garden on September 11th. The date marks the 8th anniversary of the release of the original Blueprint, as well as, the 9/11 terrorist attacks. On that day, Jay-Z will release The Blueprint 3 and perform for the benefit of New York Police and Fire Widows’ and Children’s Benefit Fund.

“This charity and concert encompass the true spirit of New York City,” Jay-Z said in a statement. “We are asking everyone to ‘answer the call’ and support and honor the families of those that lost their lives in the line of duty. There was true camaraderie and resiliency that this city showed the world in 2001, and we continue that today by taking care of our own.”
