Jay-Z is certainly planning a life after rapping after revealing he may start DJing.
Hova wants to start spinning records at Weddings and Bar Mitzvah’s with a video screen and dancers.
“I’ve got a whole plan. I’m gonna get me a little Serato set, some DJ software. I’m gonna work on that for six months, then I’m gonna find out which DJ makes the most and charge double and tour, do bar mitzvahs, weddings … I’m gonna have video behind me and dancers. I’m gonna have people just go out and pour champagne when I get to a certain song. I’m going to make a whole show of this thing”
Its not uncommon for rappers to perform a DJ set to make some extra money. Artists like Talib Kweli, Q-Tip, Questlove and Biz Markie all perform DJ gigs.
But if you want Jay-Z at you’re wedding, act fast because his performance fee will go up.
“If you want to book me, book me early, because the prices will be a little better because when I get good, I’m really going to go for it.”
In related Jay-Z news, “Empire State Of Mind”, which features Alicia Keys has been released in the UK today.
