Sporting a newly branded black and white Brooklyn Nets jersey, a Nets hat and all black jeans, Jay Z freestyles and offers some inspirational words of wisdom. The show is the first of 8 sold out shows to open the Barclay Center Arena. Once again proving why he is the undisputed King of Hip Hop, Jay Z tells the crowd:

“I think every single person is born with genius level talent. You just have to find out what it is that you are a genius at. I don’t believe that God would take one person and say, ‘You! You’re special’. I believe every single person is special. I believe every single person has genius level talent.

Once you find out what it is [that you are talented at], that’s not the end of it. Once you find out your genius level talent, you apply yourself in such a way that you do amazing sh-t. I’m a living testament of that. I am no muthaf-cking different than anybody in here tonight and I’m standing on this stage as living proof that if you apply yourself to what it is that you are genius at, you can do anything in the world.”

The only question I’m asking now is: What CAN’T Hov do?

Amazing.
