Jay-Z got to perform his song, "Empire State of Mind" featuring Alicia Keys at Game 2 of the MLB World Series.
After being pushed back from Game 1, most likely due to weather conditions, the performance went off without a hitch in front of thousands of New York's finest fans. Even better, the Yankees pulled off their first 2009 Series win, evening the seven game series at 1-1.
The track is one of many singles off of Jay's newest studio album, "The Blueprint 3", and is quickly becoming the modern day anthem of New York City. It was played at almost every Yankee game since it debuted right there alongside Frank Sinatra's famous "New York, New York". Plus this is the inaugural year of the new Yankee stadium itself...it's a bigger deal than you think.
Have a wild (but safe) Halloween weekend and GO YANKEES!
