    Jay-Z has F-you money. Is he saying it to the wrong people?


Jay-Z says he’s a business, man. He sold out Yankee Stadium for three nights, and used the stage to answer everyone calling him a sellout. The billionaire released the 30th-anniversary edition of his debut album about hustling his way to independence as a Target exclusive in the middle of a boycott many Black organizers say never ended. We dig into how this is what Jay-Z has been selling his whole career — it’s how Black excellence and Black capitalism get fed to us as the same thing.
