Jimmy Kimmel is back in his hometown this week, as Jimmy Kimmel Live! takes over the Brooklyn Academy of Music’s Howard Gilman Opera House in Brooklyn, New York this week. For night two of “Kimmel In Brooklyn,” the late-night show host had another hometown hero, Jay Z, on the show. The mogul-rapper sat down with Kimmel to discuss growing up just down the street from the studio, battling Busta Rhymes in high school, an old school rap moment with Big Daddy Kane, being a sports agent, and his streaming service TIDAL.
After giving the studio audience free tickets to the TIDAL X: 10/20 concert that same night, Jay Z and Kimmel walked over from the studio to Barclays Center for the concert. Watch the interview, plus Jay’s taped performance of “Empire State of Mind” from TIDAL X: 10/20 below.
