JAY Z Brings "Made In America" Tour To LA

It looks to be a busy summer for Jay Z. The Roc Nation Sports agent announced Wednesday that his “Made in America” festival will come to LA Labor Day weekend (August 30th & 31st) to Downtown’s Grand Park.

LA Mayor Eric Garcetti, Budweiser and United Way made the announcement along with Jay.

“Two years ago, this was a dream,” Jay Z said from the steps of City Hall early Wednesday. “I had a vision of putting together a festival that blurred those lines of genres.”

“We’re going to celebrate our golden state of mind,” Garcetti said. “L.A. is the world’s music capital … the music industry has helped build this city, and the creative sector is essential to our economy.”

The rap mogul said his reason for placing the festival in the middle of the city “and not far away” is so that it can be more inclusive for concertgoers. “Look at how beautiful Grand Park is,”

The Philly location will still take place as it had for the three previous years.

It’s also rumored that Jay and his wife Beyonce will co-headline a tour together this summer. I am SO HERE for that. Busy summer for Jay, good thing he doesn’t have any pressing business with his sports clients this summer.
