If jay-z died it would be all over. that is retarded. lol. yeah i heard some rumors about him and beyonce, but i highly doubt he's leaving the business.
Beyonce told Oprah Winfrey that she is dating Jay-z but she didn't want to say nothing more about it she wanna to keep everything to them self .... I saw this on friday on Oprah Winfrey ....
On the MTV video awards he stated that he felt he did everything there is to do as an artist so he would re-tire and possibly do more as a manager or producer.
If Jay-Z died, that would be the end of the world for every other artist out there since he's always "guest-rapping" on everyone elses tracks and making them "big".
