Jay-Z covers the latest issue of Rolling Stone, which details how the rapper turned mogul became king of America. The new issue, which is on newsstands now, also includes Jay opening up about his wife, Beyonce, his tenure as president of Def Jam and why he thinks many rappers have failed to age gracefully.
NOT FEELIN DIS COVER… AT ALL!
Oh no, thats too close up
hova forever.
king ugly
still dont know why he has beyonce…except for his money
Good for Jay-Z!
looks like a camel on the cover but oookay.. King of America though? and then he wonders why people think he’s in the illuminati and then calls himself king of america. ughh.. and it annoys me hoe people call him Hov like he’s god. Yes, I know it’s because he’s the so-called god of hip-hop/rap but still I wouldn’t call him that ever. The same goes for when people call Gaga Godga, gtfo outta hea wit dat! thx for the post though..
Iam a big Jay z fan , but this is a too close of a pic.
not the most flattering pic.
jay usually gives good interviews tho.
Dem Lips
NO MAUM!
I’LL PASS ON THE CAMEL AND HIS CLOSEUP.
Too early in the morning for this, Angel.
Oh Sh*t, There goes my breakfast!
Susan recommended me a nice website, ______ B l a c k W h i t e C u p i d * C o m ______ where black & white singles are looking for lovers to share interracial lifestyle with….
Not being mean but he is so fucking ugly…
C’mon people is his lips gonna be the only thing to focus on? What about a young Black man and his humble beginings of dealing drugs to being invited to the White House! He’s not in jail not doing drugs not cheating on his wife, just giving an interview. And who is to say Rolling Stone didn’t entittle the article “King of America.
Talk about crabs-in-a-barrel mentality!
i like ___JAY-Z HE IS A Sagittarius____like me____but….King of America is too much.
@13 well he also has a big nose but its not like he is good looking so a close up of his face is not what i wanna see
WELL DAMN THAT RIHANNA COVER LOOKS FANTASTIC COMPARED TO THIS SH!T!
i wonder if beyonce is still attracted to him
not feeling the cover also but I LOVE YOU JAY Z!!!!
@DOPEFETISH.COM,
Yeah I’ve definitely stopped calling him “Hova”/Hov .. I didn’t even take it in at first, whenever he said Hova/Hov I said it as well. The Godga thing is unbelievably stupid, worse than Beysus.
–
I’m pretty sure I have never called this man a camel but that’s the first thing that popped into my mind when I saw this picture. His nose isn’t even that bad here, it’s his pouted lips.
Good for him .. I guess.
What the hell does Beyonce see in him. Damn.
King of America. They must be joking. If anything, he is the king of arrogance.
LMAO @ comment #10. I felt the same way.
i love love lovvvvveeeeee Shawn “Jay-Z/Hova/Hov/Young/whatever else” Carter to the FULLEST
but like most, this cover is not a hit… maybe ‘cus it looks like he has no eyebrows, and then all you can focus on is his lips and nose… i duno… or maybe its just too damn close..

I strongly recommend ______ B l a c k W h i t e D a t e * C o m ______ to you where I just found my interracial boyfriend! You know it is a great place to meet black men and beautiful women. What’s kind of relationship do you want?
maybe it just me but those lips look juicy & delicious
Lol, here you have a man who has been embraced by mainstream (white) America and the mainstream media more in the last seven years than he was when he was “hot” in the hip hop world. Eleven or twelve years ago, this guy was boycotting the Grammys because the mainstream would not recognize him at his hottest, and now he receives awards and recognition for nothing. It doesn’t take Sherlock Holmes to figure out what a black man has done in order to gain the approval of the mainstream strata of America to the point where a magazine like “The Rolling Stone” would call him the “king of America”. The more approval he receives, the more evident it is what he has done and is doing, which is following his orders to the letter.
THAT IS TOO CLOSE OF A PIC!!!! Too bad its already in stores.. they should have chosen a better pic of him… maybe with a cigar or something!
camel face!
JAY-Z , BEYONCE, RHIANA, LADY GAGA ALL WORSHIP THE DEVIL!!!!
@ 24, yup it is just you
.. I dont know what Jay is on talking about others who dont age gracefully. Looks who’s talking, walking around like his damn thirteen.
I still love your music thou!
Sooooooooooo Rolling Stone couldn’tve found a better pic, huh?
That is the ugliest face I’ve seen that close-up on a magazine cover. Every detail on that face is HIDEous. CAPS on HIDE in hideous, cuz they were supposed to CAMOUflage that some how….. CAPS on CAMOU in camouflage… *you figure it out*
The big, dark “lokes” were not enough to make this appealing to the eye @ all.
I know why Bey hasn’t got pregnant… if she had a handsome husband w/ attractive genes… I bet that she would’ve been dropped one. Yuck.
AND YOU TOO SHALL FALL HOVA! your time in running Out!
ugh! Dat close up is not cute at all!
The thickest lips in AMERICA!
Profile Jay, Profile…
Sorry but i will suck the life at them lips lol.
@ 13
I’m sorry but I had to laugh at this comment:
“What about a young Black man and his humble beginings of dealing drugs to being invited to the White..”
Jay’s humble beginnings selling drugs? Lmao! I didn’t realize you could be humble while pumping drugs to your community, and then making rhymes about how successful you were at ruining that community. Smmfh. I guess all that humbleness payed off cause now he’s King of America. Whatever tha f*ck that means!
DAMMMM it concreteloop.. I could have gone my whole life without seeing this pic. yall need to have a warning before veiwing oftion when its Jay-z’s face. I’m pregnant I don’t want his ugly ass mug messing up my baby..
lol….
thats all i did.
@36 that the same thing a did!
“King of America?” And how is he goign to diss other rappers for not staying young. I guess staying young means dressing and acting like a teenager. Whatever, man! You lived through your 70′s and 80′s (and 90′s) leave the 00′s to the kids. And act and dress your age.
Damn he ugly
@circa 1984 I COULD’NT HAVE SAID IT BETTER…..SCREW DRUG DEALING PROUD OF IT RAPPERS!!! SUPPORT LUPE FIASCO! FNF UP
He thinks he’s aged gracefully? Maybe he means that he often wears age appropriate clothing. Because he definitely looks older. Not horrible but he looks like a man on his journey through middle life. Maye I’m misconstruing what he said…it just seems that he thinks he looks young. I can’t think of any rapper at the moment who looks younger than Nas. LL but there were rumors he’d pulled a Will Smith and got a face lift.
*SMILE* GO ‘HEAD BALLER!! Gots ta give him respect doe! Dat NY, joint…GENIUS!! See, dat pic ain’t ‘posed to be nuttin but what it is… BROOKLYN, DA KING!!! PRIME HUSTLA, SON!! I FU*KS WIT DIS LOOK!!
Damn
youuuuu’s sure is ugly
horrible photo
LEAVE JAY Z ALONE, HE HAVEN’T DID NOTHING THAT ALOT OF U ARE DOING, HAVE DID OR KNOW SOMEONE DOING IT. SOMETIMES U HAVE TO START SOMEWHERE EVEN IF THAT SOMEWHERE IS WRONG. U PEOPLE ALWAYS THROWING STONES AS IF UR SO DAYUM PURE. WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE PIC? STILL LOOK THE SAME. GUESS HE ISN’T THAT UGLY OR HIS LIPS THAT THICK. AS SOME OF U SAY HE HAVE THE BADDEST WIFE(RIGHT,LOL) IN AMERICA. JAY Z DON’T GIVE A 2 CENTS ABOUT ANY OF U. THE SAME $150 JORDANS SOME OF U STRUGGLE TO BUY AND CAN’T AFFORD…….THIS MAN CAN WIPE HIS ARZE WITH ALL DAY LONG,LOL.
King of America, is anyone co signing this mess? I could see if they called Obama King of America, but a rapper who makes a living rapping about selling drugs to his fellow black man… I dont think so. People are so title driven, when its only just a title… he is not the king of anything. JaY thinks he will be doing this forever but he will not, watch what happens when the light dims on his fame… he then will not know what to do with himself. Praises dont last forever.
@Love Bug
You know that Jay doesnt give 2 cents about you either right? So your comment doesnt matter. Stop being silly, this is a gossip blog and you are taking what is said about someone who doesnt give a damn about any of us to heart. If Jay Z and wifey cared then they would make music for the soul, music about being happy, finding peace, treating others with respect, ect but they are not because we are tools… you fans give them money, so he is wiping his ass with your hard earned money.
Go sit down and re discover yourself.
LOL… I just wrote a blog about this guy. This photo is cracking me the hell up right now. It’s almost intentionally funny, as if they were fishing for the camel jokes.
Ten years from now my kid will b wearin dis on his shirt
Boogerwolf!!!
Who cares. I’d still let him tap. lol
@Chris, that a good point, which I believe will be the case!
They could have shot the picture at a more faltering angle. This is just a slap in the face. But, you gotta lue um.
YOU GUYS ARE SO FOOLED WHEN WILL YOU WAKE UP AND REALIZE THAT THE WHOLE INDUSTRY IS PART OF THE ILLUMINATI. A LOT OF THEM WERE CHRISTIANS BUT TURNED EVIL FOR EXAMPLE BEYONCE. WHEN YOU LOOK AT RIHANNA SHE IS A STRAIGHT WITCH OUTTA HELL AND JAYZ IS SOMEHOW THE LEADER OF THE INDUSTRY WAKE UP PEOPLE. WHY DO YOU THINK WE ARE HAVING ALL OF THESE WORLD DIASTERS U BETTER WAKE UP REAL TALK
JEFF MIKES, most of these people are blind! Even though what you’re saying is true, it’s not meant for EVERYBODY to get it, let’s face it, there will always be people who are blind, even with fully functioning eyes.
Beyonce use to acknowledge God everytime she won an award remember? Now she don’t. Jennifer Hudson too!

Luvbug I swear you get dumber & dumber every time you post a comment. I don’t condone selling drugs and destroying your own people for the sake a making a few dollars. What does it profit a man to gain the world and lose his soul? Yeah he made money but how many lives did he destroy in the process? I’ll be sure to relay your comment to all of the crack addicted babies I see in the NICU @ my hospital. Smh. Ignorance is bliss.
I don’t like the way he look on this one!
